Early leaks suggest the Galaxy S27 Ultra will undergo a major redesign with a horizontal camera plate reminiscent of the iPhone 17 Pro, potentially offered in two sizes. The rumors also claim native Qi2 support via a magnetic ring on the back, signaling Samsung may finally embrace magnetic wireless charging. Launch timing is still months away and details could change before official announcement.
A credible leak suggests the Galaxy S27 Ultra will feature a horizontal camera bar with a triple-camera setup (including a 200MP main sensor with OIS and a 50MP telephoto with 5x zoom), plus a circular magnetic ring for built-in Qi2 wireless charging. The design is said to resemble the iPhone 17 Pro, with four S27 models expected in early 2027.
Leaks and renders claim the Galaxy S27 Ultra will ditch the vertical camera stack in favor of a horizontal bar and come in two sizes (with a 6.47-inch display spec noted), while the Galaxy S27/S27+ are expected to keep the current vertical layout; early reactions to the Ultra’s redesign are mixed.
Leak claims the Galaxy S27 Ultra will ditch the horizontal camera bar in favor of a plateau-style module, a design reminiscent of Apple’s approach. CAD sketches and AI renders circulated after Ice Universe’s post, with rumors also suggesting magnet-friendly features for accessories ahead of the launch.
A known tech leaker hints that the Galaxy S27 Ultra will ditch the current horizontal camera bar in favor of a plate-style design reminiscent of Apple’s iPhone, with CADs and AI renders circulating and potential magnets for accessories noted ahead of a 2026 launch.
Design filings in the WIPO database allegedly show a horizontal camera bar for the Galaxy S27 Ultra (and S27 Pro), a potential shift from Samsung’s traditional vertical setup. The change isn’t confirmed, but supporters argue it could improve on-table stability and free space for Qi2/magnetic accessories, with rumors of camera innovations tied to 2027. The idea echoes past Samsung concepts and is discussed by sources like Ice Universe, Sammyguru, and Notebookcheck, but final decisions remain pending from the supply chain.
A leaker shared screenshots of an early One UI 9.5 build running on a Galaxy device, hinting at notable changes as Samsung stays busy rolling out One UI 9.0 to older devices while developing 9.5 for the Galaxy S27 series next year; details are sparse.
A reader poll on the Galaxy S27 Ultra shows battery life is the standout upgrade priority, with almost 40% of over a thousand voters calling for a bigger 5,000 mAh cell; Samsung reportedly keeps a 5,000 mAh battery and price leaks suggest a base of around $1,399 amid chip shortages and AI-driven demand, while many readers prefer a refreshed design over more AI features.
Samsung plans to expand its inkjet lens printing across the Galaxy S27 Ultra’s three rear cameras, replacing traditional anti-reflective films with matte ink to boost image quality and shrink the camera module, in a technique developed with Samsung Electro-Mechanics.
Samsung plans to slim all three Galaxy S27 Ultra camera modules using matte ink instead of traditional light-blocking films, allowing thinner lenses and potentially freeing space for bigger sensors or improved stabilization. The S27 Ultra is also rumored to drop the 3x zoom and other top specs, with commentary noting the iPhone 18 Pro Max as a contrasting benchmark.
A leaked render of Samsung’s Galaxy S27 Ultra shows four rear cameras, but credible reports indicate Samsung will likely ship with only three cameras and a single 5x telephoto lens; the render is considered unlikely to reflect the final design, and the phone is not expected until early 2027, with ongoing speculation about battery size and features like the Privacy Display.
Leaks indicate Samsung is already testing One UI 9.5 on the Galaxy S27 Ultra (US variant SM-S958U), with build evidence from Samsung’s test servers. This follows the recent One UI 9 debut and suggests early software work for the upcoming flagship, which rumors tie to features like an S Pen, a 200MP main camera, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro.
Samsung’s One UI 9.5 is leaking ahead of the Galaxy S27 lineup, with the first build (S958USQU0AZH3) spotted for the US Galaxy S27 Ultra. Galaxy Z Fold 8 series will ship with One UI 9.0, and 9.5 development is progressing on schedule, though a public beta isn’t imminent; the stable release is expected with the Galaxy S27 series in 2027.
Rumors claim the Galaxy S27 Ultra will skip planned upgrades to LPDDR6 RAM and UFS 5.0 storage due to a global memory shortage, leaving it with older LPDDR5X and UFS 4.0 tech and potentially reserving the new components for limited-edition models; this could affect AI performance, speed, and future-proofing, all while price is expected to stay high (around $1,300).
Samsung’s Galaxy S27 Ultra introduces a silicon-carbon battery for longer life, a 200MP main sensor with enhanced Sony collaboration, a 50MP 5x periscope telephoto replacing the old 3x lens, a redesigned horizontal camera layout, and Privacy Display with One UI 9 privacy controls; the Galaxy S27 Pro shares many camera upgrades while omitting the S Pen, and the S27/S27+ receive upgraded main sensors—marking a major flagship evolution.
