Introduction and Specs
The Galaxy A26 comes a little late at this time, but it brings a big display and a more powerful chipset in the affordable A2X series.
Last year’s Galaxy A35’s Exynos 1380 Chip Lineup has fallen below. A26 also gets a larger 6.7 inch display (above 6.5 “) and improved material. You will find Gorilla Glass developed+ protective sheets in the front and rear.
In addition, the A26 receives the appropriate IP67 English protection, which is better than the standard splash-proof phone in the same price brackets.

Samsung managed to add some significant upgrades here and there without raising prices, making it a sensible budget smartphone in the mid-200 range.
But what about the competition? Well, first, we have to run our normal tests before we make our judgment.
Samsung Galaxy A26
The Galaxy A26 comes into a normal retail B BOX cable with only ordinary user manual and USB-C cable for data transfer and charging. There are no additional protective cases or anything.
The phone supports fast charging up to 25 W on the PD using Samsung’s PPS, so you have to buy separately to take advantage of the fast charging rate.
