Galaxy A26 And Galaxy A36 Renders Show That Samsung Can Bring New Designs!
Alright, all of the hype surrounding the Galaxy S25 series is over, and we’re all getting ready for the next wave of flagship phones from Samsung. However, before we get there, the company has some less premium phones to launch. Thanks to a reliable leaker, we have renders of the Galaxy A26 and Galaxy A36.
The Galaxy A series held the title as the next best thing to the Galaxy S series for a while. It was dethroned by the FE series of devices. In any case, these are still some pretty capable devices. The devices recently leaked occupy the lower end of the Galaxy A line while the Galaxy A56, which was also just leaked, will sit at the top.
Here are renders of the Galaxy A26 and Galaxy A36
Starting off with the Galaxy S26, we see a pretty notable departure from what we’ve seen over the last couple of years. The design isn’t radically different from Samsung’s other devices. However, we see that the company reintroduced the camera island. The camera lenses no longer stick out individually from the back.
We’re not sure if this points to Samsung doing this with its future flagships. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 had some rings around the cameras, as did the Galaxy S25 Ultra. So, this could be the start of a design shift for Samsung.
As for the rest of the phone, we’re seeing pretty standard fare. There’s a teardrop notch at the top of the display and a pretty significant chin bezel. While the bezel isn’t the thinnest out there, it’s still pretty thin.
The leak showed us three colors. One is Black, one is White, and one is a greenish color. All of the phones look to have a matte texture to them.
Now, for the Galaxy A36
Moving onto the more powerful sibling, we don’t see much in terms of differences between it and the Galaxy A26. The most notable difference is the fact that there’s no notch. Rather, it has a punch-hole. Also, we noticed that the chin bezel is a little bit smaller. This phone looks a bit more like the flagship Galaxy S phones (minus the Ultra model).
Another notable detail is that the Galaxy S36 also brings a camera island. So, it further confirms that Samsung is doing this across the whole A series.
In the images, we see a gray, light gray, and iridescent color. At this point, we don’t know how much these phones will cost. We know that they’ll be affordable alternatives to the Galaxy S phones.
