Galaxy S27 camera leak points to modest upgrades for base models
A leak says Samsung is evaluating cameras for four Galaxy S27 models: the S27, S27 Plus, S27 Pro and S27 Ultra.
The base and Plus models are tipped to keep a 50MP main camera and a 12MP ultrawide camera, hardware that the leak says is already used in earlier Galaxy phones.
The Pro and Ultra may get new 200MP main cameras and 50MP ultrawide cameras.
The leak suggests the Pro will have 3x optical zoom and the Ultra 5x, but its details conflict on the Pro’s telephoto camera resolution.
Both models are said to have just one telephoto camera, unlike recent Ultra phones with two, which could limit zoom options.
The leak also points to no major camera overhaul for the base models, while the Pro and Ultra’s main cameras may be the biggest change.
Samsung has not confirmed these details, and the Galaxy S27 series is widely expected to launch early next year.
