[NEWS] Galaxy A26 appears with new camera look, old front design

[phillynews215]

Samsung is preparing a bunch of new phones to launch next year. The Galaxy A26 is one of those phones, and the mid-range device will likely be announced sometime early next year. Its design has appeared for the first time, thanks to images with its renders.

Galaxy A26 still has a front camera notch, making the phone look old

The first set of images of the Galaxy A26 was published by AndroidHeadlines a few hours ago. These images are based on the phone's CAD renders. As you can see in the images below, the upcoming lower mid-range phone has a new camera design featuring three rear-facing cameras.



The camera design appears similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 6. It is also similar to the Galaxy A36 and the Galaxy A56, both of which are expected to be launched early next year.

On the front, Samsung is still sticking to the old notch design for the front-facing camera. No improvements are seen on that front. The bezels are thick, and there is a sizeable chin at the bottom. Overall, the Galaxy A26 looks quite old from the front. We hope Samsung switches to a modern front design soon.



The leaked images also reveal the ‘Key Island' design near the power and volume keys, but the hump appears smaller than on the Galaxy A25. The phone reportedly measures 164 x 77.5 x 7.7mm (9.7mm including the camera bump)

There is a side-mounted fingerprint reader, which means Samsung will not switch to an in-display fingerprint reader next year.

You can watch the design of the Galaxy A26 in 360 degrees in the video below.



Previous reports have revealed that the Galaxy A26 uses the Exynos 1280 processor and 6GB RAM. It will likely have 128GB and 256GB storage variants. For storage expansion, it will also have a microSD card slot. Similar to the Galaxy A25, it will likely have stereo speakers.
