A Galaxy S26 FE price leak published by Dealabs puts the French retail grid at €799 for the 128GB model, rising to €1,099 for 512GB — increases of €50 to €170 over the equivalent Galaxy S25 FE tiers. The figures come from leaker billbil-kun, who published them as an exclusive on 29 July, ahead of any Samsung announcement. Treat all of this as a leak: Samsung has not announced the Galaxy S26 FE, its price, or its launch date.
Leaked Galaxy S26 FE pricing for France
The one piece of good news is at the bottom of the range. Where the flagship Galaxy S26 dropped its 128GB option outright, the S26 FE is said to keep it, leaving it as the cheapest way into the S series. That entry point is simply more expensive than it was.
- 128GB: €799 — up €50 from the S25 FE’s €749
- 256GB: €899 — up €90 from €809
- 512GB: €1,099 — up €170 from €929
Dealabs notes the grid is specific to France and that other European markets can differ by a couple of dozen euros either way. There is no leaked US, UK or India pricing in this report, so anyone converting these numbers directly is guessing.
Launch window and colours
Release is put at around 1 September 2026, which tracks with Fan Edition timing — the Galaxy S25 FE launched on 4 September 2025. Three colours are described: Graphite, an aqua green, and a third shade the leak says is still uncertain, somewhere between blue and purple.
What is still unconfirmed
Hardware details remain thin and none of them are official. Dealabs points to a previously reported Geekbench listing, surfaced by SamMobile, pointing to an Exynos 2500 with 8GB of RAM, and a WPC certification under the model number SM-S741, spotted by 9to5Google, suggesting a camera block sitting slightly off-centre and closer to the edge of the phone. Both are sightings, not specifications.
Why the increase, and what it means for buyers
Dealabs attributes the rise in part to climbing memory costs, which is the same pressure Google has already cited publicly — we covered that in Google’s own explanation for the Pixel 11 price hike. The pattern across the industry this quarter is consistent, and Samsung’s Fan Edition line is not insulated from it.
Still, the shape of this grid is worth noticing from a buyer’s side. A €50 rise at 128GB and a €170 rise at 512GB is not a uniform inflation adjustment; it is a steeper markup the more storage you want, on a phone whose entire pitch is being the affordable S. If the numbers hold, the 256GB model at €899 is uncomfortably close to flagship territory, and the value case for an FE gets harder to make than it was a year ago. Nothing here is final until Samsung says it is — but if you are holding out for a cheap Fan Edition, plan for a higher number than last year.
