WPC Listing Confirms Galaxy S26 FE and Reveals First Real Photo

The certification moves the phone from rumor to verified product and points to an Exynos 2500 chip, 8GB of RAM and Android 17 as early hardware indicators.

Overview

  • An early Wireless Power Consortium entry published in early June lists model SM‑S741 and includes a clear image that confirms the existence of the Galaxy S26 FE.
  • The photo shows a raised, pill‑shaped camera island like Samsung’s recent flagships with the module placed unusually close to the top and side edges.
  • A Geekbench entry for SM‑S741U and multiple leaks point to an Exynos 2500 processor, 8GB of RAM and Android 17, with benchmark scores reported in leaked listings.
  • Other widely reported specs such as a 6.7‑inch 120Hz OLED, roughly 4,900–5,000mAh battery, triple rear cameras and 45W wired charging remain unconfirmed and the WPC’s 5W wireless figure is likely a placeholder.
  • The S26 FE is expected to follow Samsung’s usual Fan Edition schedule in August–September and its certification suggests Samsung will bring flagship design cues to a lower‑cost model while regional chipset choices could still vary.
