Samsung has raised the price of its Galaxy S26 FE to $699.99, $50 more than last year's model, challenging the Fan Edition line's value proposition. The phone features Samsung's Exynos 2500 processor but retains last year's 6.7-inch display, 4,900-mAh battery, and 50-megapixel camera setup. WIRED gave it a 6/10 rating, citing modest upgrades that don't justify the price increase. The pricing decision comes as Samsung's smartphone business faces profitability pressure from rising component costs, despite growing sales. The S26 FE now sits just $200 below the flagship Galaxy S26, which starts at $899.99, whilst Samsung's Galaxy A37 costs $250 less at $449.99. The phone includes seven years of software updates and security patches with Android 17.

Dutch startup Euclyd has raised €200 million ($231 million) in Series A funding to develop an AI chip system designed to rival Nvidia's GPUs for AI inference. The round was co-led by Samsung, Somerset Capital Partners, the Scaleup Europe Fund managed by EQT, and Innovation Industries. Founded in 2024, Euclyd is designing processors with different architecture to GPUs, targeting AI inference workloads. The company plans to generate revenue through hardware sales to enterprise customers and licensing its intellectual property. CEO Bernardo Kastrup said Samsung's involvement brings expertise beyond capital, citing the company's memory manufacturing capabilities and supply chain knowledge. Euclyd aims to begin rolling out its chip systems in 2028, targeting thousands of enterprise customers by 2030. The investment reflects growing interest in alternatives to Nvidia's dominant position in the AI chip market.
