Galaxy S27 Customs Records Show Three Different Chips Across Four Phones, With a Snapdragon in the S27 Pro

Customs records for the Galaxy S27 lineup point to three different processors across four models, according to HiTech24. Records covering Asian markets list the Exynos 2700 for the S27 and S27+, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 for the S27 Pro, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 for the S27 Ultra. That complicates our earlier report, which said the S27 Pro would get Snapdragon in some markets and the Exynos 2700 in most others. Samsung hasn’t announced any of these phones.

The processor and model data comes from the NBD customs platform, with records dated September, and the model codes were linked to dual-SIM versions. The RAM and storage figures come from a separate listing published on November 4 for the European models, so they describe base versions and not every configuration. All of this is preliminary data and not final retail specifications.

Region is where the picture gets messy. For Asia, the records split the lineup into Exynos on the two cheaper phones and Qualcomm chips on the two pricier ones. For Europe, early-October leaks had the Exynos 2700 on the Pro and on both smaller models, but the November 4 European listing now shows the Pro with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 as well. In the US and China, the report says Snapdragon would power more of the lineup than just the Pro and Ultra. Because the sources disagree, the final chip split by country isn’t confirmed.

The S27 Pro is the surprise. It would sit a tier below the Ultra’s Extreme chip, though the exact performance gap hasn’t been established, and its 6.5-inch screen is the only new size in the range. The S27, S27+ and Ultra keep sizes close to the S26 range, and the Ultra reportedly gets an M16 OLED panel that the S27+ lacks. On the Ultra, the records show only a Snapdragon, but Samsung reportedly still had to decide between Snapdragon and the Exynos 2700 for it, so an Exynos-powered Ultra remains uncertain.

For performance, Samsung’s own internal tests reportedly put the Exynos 2700 ahead of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6, but those figures are unverified and say little about heat or battery life. The series is expected in early 2027, and our Galaxy S27 Ultra guide covers everything else known about the top model.
