Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S26 FE has been leaking a lot lately, which makes us think that its launch is imminent. Today its European Energy Label has been leaked ahead of its publication in the official database, and it reveals an overall A rating for the device.
Its battery life is rated at exactly 50h, its drop resistance is rated A, and its repairability is rated C. Its battery is rated to last at least 1,200 cycles before the capacity drops below 80%. The phone is also IP68 rated for dust and water resistance.
The Galaxy S26 FE may get official in early September, since that's when the Galaxy S25 FE was announced last year. It's expected to be powered by the Exynos 2500 SoC, paired with 8GB of RAM and 128/256GB of storage. The chipset and a rumored new sensor for the ultrawide camera may be the only upgrades the S26 FE will bring over its predecessor, since it's even rumored to have the same 4,900 mAh battery with 45W wired charging support.

Funny that phones are rated always 1000, 1200, 1400 or 1600. But not single one gets like 1230, 1315, 1418, 1577 cycles.
