Leaked information regarding the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra indicates a significant design shift, moving from a vertical to a horizontal camera module. The device is expected to feature a reduced camera count, dropping from four to three sensors, while the camera module itself will be larger to accommodate improved hardware. The S27 Ultra will likely include a 5,700mAh battery, a notable increase from the 5,000mAh capacity found in previous iterations, potentially utilizing silicon-carbon battery technology. The display is expected to be a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel using a more efficient M16 E7 material set, offering higher brightness. The device will be powered by a new Qualcomm Snapdragon flagship processor, likely the Snapdragon 8 Elite, and will run One UI 9.5 out of the box. The S27 series is expected to include four models: the S27 base, S27+, S27 Pro, and S27 Ultra. The S27 Ultra is expected to retain the S-Pen, while the S27 Pro will be a trimmed-down version without S-Pen support. Pricing is estimated to start around $1,499 for the Ultra and $1,299 for the Pro model.
