Galaxy S27 and S27+: Everything We Know So Far

Last updated: November 8, 2026

The standard Galaxy S27 and Galaxy S27+ are shaping up to be steady updates over the Galaxy S26 and S26+, with a design that looks almost unchanged, the same charging speeds and a possible switch to Sony’s main camera sensor. Samsung hasn’t announced either phone, so everything below comes from renders, certification listings and database entries. This page collects it all in one place and will be updated as new leaks appear.

Battery capacities, final pricing and the chip split in every region haven’t been reported yet.

Design

CAD renders show the standard Galaxy S27 as a near-clone of the Galaxy S26, and the minimal design changes carry across to the S27+. A case leak shows a two-design split across the lineup, with the S27 and S27+ keeping separate vertical camera openings while the S27 Pro and Ultra get a large horizontal camera island. A screen protector leak has also shown how the four phones differ in size.

Display

The S27 is expected to have a 6.3-inch AMOLED with a 120Hz refresh rate, while the S27+ gets a larger 6.7-inch panel. The two phones reportedly use M14 OLED material, while the Pro and Ultra move to the newer M16, and DC dimming has only been reported for the Pro and Ultra.

Chip and memory

Customs records show three different chips across the four phones, with the S27 and S27+ both appearing with the Exynos 2700 in Asian listings, though the European chipset reports differ and the regional split isn’t settled. A database listing also shows 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, but Samsung may bring back 8GB RAM variants to keep starting prices in check as memory costs rise.

Cameras

Samsung is testing a 50MP Sony sensor for the main camera of both phones, which would replace its own ISOCELL sensor, and the Sony main cameras could help low-light photos, autofocus and dynamic range. Earlier leaks pair it with a 12MP ultrawide, a 10MP telephoto and a 12MP selfie camera, and none of this is final since it comes from prototype testing.

Battery and charging

Charging stays the same as the Galaxy S26 series. China’s 3C database lists the Galaxy S27 at 25W and the S27+ at 45W wired charging, per tipster Abhishek Yadav, and other certifications later backed up the same numbers. Neither phone is expected to include a charger in the box. Samsung may also bring silicon-carbon batteries to the S27 series, but capacities haven’t leaked.

Release date and price

The Galaxy S27 series is expected in January or February 2027. In early November, the standard Galaxy S27 appeared in India’s BIS database as SM-S952B/DS, according to AndroidTreasure, its first listing as a complete phone in India. The entry doesn’t name the phone or list specs, and it doesn’t confirm an Indian launch date. Samsung hasn’t announced a launch date or pricing for either phone.
