Samsung Galaxy A26 gets certified on its way to launch

17 January 2025
It's probably getting official soon.

Sort by:

Decent phone but it's not going to make it. It is in weird spot among A line. A16 is nice and cheap lower end phone, A35/36 are good midrangers for the mass. A26 is in the middle but to expencive for lower end and to weak for a midranger. A2x line is going to take A4x line path, bye bye path, if Samsung doesn't do something to make it special and desirable. Maybe make it compact, under 6,2 inch? Every phone is 6,5 inch or bigger, there are no smaller lower end phones from bigger brands, but people with small hands still exist, you know...

    Really wish Samsung would come up with a new design for A0-2x series...

          At this point they shouldn't bother with these anymore. Just merge it with the A1x series, make it even more compelling.

            How many years do we gotta wait until this notch is removed??It's so annoying+ Almost every budget phone had a punch hole....This is diabolical Samsung...

              Not even a chip upgrade? Boo

                Was hoping for a trickled down Exynos 1380, but looks like 2025 will be just rabadging/sidegrades for mid-range and lower since the OEMs are spending money buying SD8Elite. LOL.

                Still, if it gained IP 67/68, it might be alright.

                  Again, again and again the shitty teardrop notch

                    I know it is a "cheap" phone, but how many years do we have to wait till Samsung gets rid of that ugly tear drop notch...If the chineses can do it, why not Samsung ?
