Samsung Galaxy S27 Leaks: Four Phones, New Pro Model

Samsung hasn’t announced anything yet, but Samsung Galaxy S27 leaks in early November 2026 are painting a bigger change than usual for its next flagships. The reports point to four phones instead of three, with a new Pro model in the middle, and a launch in January or February 2027.

Samsung Galaxy S27 leaks point to four models, not three

The tipped lineup is the Galaxy S27, Galaxy S27+, Galaxy S27 Pro, and Galaxy S27 Ultra. The Pro would sit between the Plus and the Ultra — a smaller Ultra-style phone, without the S Pen.

Reported sizes are 6.3-inch for the S27, 6.5-inch for the Pro, and 6.9-inch for the Ultra. The Plus is expected to sit between the base model and the Pro. Design leaks also suggest a split: the S27 and S27+ keep separate vertical camera openings, while the Pro and Ultra move to a large horizontal camera island.

Built-in magnets and a Privacy Display

Dummy units and CAD models shared by leakers point to built-in magnetic rings on the back of the S27 series, for magnetic accessories and charging alignment. That’s new for Samsung’s main flagships, and it would bring them closer to what Apple and Google already offer.

The Pro and Ultra are also tipped to get Samsung’s Privacy Display technology, which limits viewing angles so what’s on screen is harder to see from the side.

Samsung Galaxy S27 leaks: the chip split isn’t settled yet

This is where the reports disagree, so it’s worth treating as unsettled. The most recent reports say the Galaxy S27 Ultra will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Extreme, the Pro will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6, and the S27 and S27+ will use Samsung’s Exynos 2700 in Asian listings.

An earlier report had suggested Samsung was considering Exynos for more of the lineup after concerns about the Snapdragon chip’s efficiency and heat. Qualcomm has denied there are systemic thermal issues with the chip. The regional split — which chip goes where in Europe, North America, and Asia — still isn’t clear from the Samsung Galaxy S27 leaks.

Cameras: Pro gets most of the Ultra, Ultra loses a zoom

A leaked sensor list from November 9 suggests the biggest camera shake-up is in the middle of the range:

The S27 and S27+ are tipped to keep a 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide, and 10MP 3x zoom, much like the S26 pair. Samsung is reportedly choosing between its own ISOCELL sensor and a 50MP Sony sensor for the main camera. If it picks Sony, it would be the first base Galaxy S with a Sony main camera since the S21 series.

The S27 Pro is tipped to get the Ultra’s 200MP main sensor, a 50MP ultrawide, and a 16MP selfie camera, but without the Ultra’s 5x periscope zoom.

The S27 Ultra is tipped to keep its 200MP main sensor and 50MP 5x periscope, but drop the 10MP 3x zoom camera, going from four rear cameras to three.

Battery and charging

Battery reports are still early, but the Ultra is tipped at 5,700mAh and the Pro at 5,200mAh. Charging looks unchanged from the S26 series in certification listings — 25W for the S27 and 45W for the S27+.

The S27 and S27+ have also appeared in certification databases, including India’s BIS listing for the S27+ as model SM-S956B/DS, which doesn’t confirm specs or a launch date on its own.

Samsung hasn’t confirmed pricing, specs, or a launch date. If the January / February 2027 timing holds, the next few weeks should bring clearer renders and more certification filings — and that’s when we’ll know whether the four-model plan and the chip split actually stick.
