New leak reveals Galaxy A26 redesigned camera array, still runs Exynos 1280 SoC

Samsung’s upcoming entry-level A-Series devices is on the horizon, and we now have a first look at the purported Galaxy A26.

In contrast with last year’s Galaxy A25, the camera array is now encapsulated in one singular slab. This design also matches with that of the Galaxy A36 and the Galaxy A56.

However, from the front, it’s still looking outdated with a dew-drop notch and thick bottom bezel.

As for hardware changes, there’s not much. The A26 will still likely use the same Exynos 1280 chip based on a recent Geekbench listing.

The camera sensors also appear to be the same with a 50-megapixel main shooter and a 8-megapixel ultrawide. The third sensor remains to be seen.

It will sure run Android 15 OS out of the box and Samsung is also expected to bring up to six major OS upgrade for this phone.
