Galaxy S26 FE hits Geekbench, reveals the chipset Samsung chose
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 FE is now listed in the Geekbench online database, as someone in possession of a prototype has run the benchmark (version 6.2.2 to be precise).
The phone managed a single-core score of 2,426 and a multi-core score of 8,004, as you can see from the screenshot below. The prototype in question has 8GB of RAM and runs Android 17. It's powered by the Exynos 2500 SoC.
The Android version tells us the S26 FE isn't launching anytime soon, since Android 17 hasn't even been released by Google. So it might be a few months away still, which isn't surprising considering the fact that its predecessor came out in September of last year.

No snap? Pass. It's ridiculous. The last FE to have snapdragon was S21 FE. That's just nasty.
