Samsung Galaxy A26 256GB/8GB Summary
Samsung’s Galaxy A26 5G 256GB/8GB has a familiar-looking design made from polycarbonate and glass. It appears slim and modern until you view the display, which has thick borders and a dated display notch. The phone gets an IP67 rating this time.
Its display offers rich colours and deep blacks but does not get sufficiently bright outdoors. The home-grown Exynos silicon is capable enough to handle daily tasks and some mid-level gaming as well. Heat is well managed both when using the camera and when playing games. There’s only one speaker and it does not sound good.
Camera performance is subpar and despite having three cameras and optical images stabilisation (OIS), all three fail to impress. Selfies are fine, and the same can be said about video recordings.
Battery life is far from impressive keeping the competition in mind. It definitely is not meant for power users. Wired charging is slow as well.
As far as the cameras are concerned, the Samsung Galaxy A26 5G 256GB/8GB on the rear packs a triple camera setup featuring a 50-megapixel primary camera; a 8-megapixel camera, and a 2-megapixel camera. It has a single front camera setup for selfies, featuring a 13-megapixel sensor.
