A new leak suggests Samsung will deploy a dual-SoC strategy for the Galaxy S27 lineup: Exynos 2700 powers the S27, S27 Plus, and S27 Pro in most markets outside the US, while the US remains Snapdragon-only; the S27 Ultra stays Snapdragon globally. The Exynos 2700 is rumored to be a 2nm chip with a Side-by-Side package for better heat dissipation, and the lineup may add a Privacy Display and a 16MP front camera upgrade, potentially dampening enthusiasm for a top-tier non-S Pen Galaxy S27 Ultra alternative.
