Our review

On design and display, the Samsung Galaxy S26 gives you a 6.3-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X, 120Hz in a 167g body — that keeps the phone comfortable in one hand and easy in a pocket. For performance, the Exynos 2600 (Australia) is paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage — that is flagship pace, so games and heavy apps are no trouble. For cameras, you get 50MP main + 12MP ultrawide + 10MP 3x telephoto, plus a 12MP selfie camera — that is a very capable set-up for family photos, travel shots and social video. Battery is 4,300mAh, and charging is 25W wired, 15W wireless — that should suit most Aussies for a full day of typical use. Here in Australia it sells for A$1,649 including GST — you are paying for the brand, the design and the top-end extras as much as the hardware, so it is worth waiting for an EOFY, Boxing Day or Click Frenzy deal if you can.
