Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra Could Get These 5 Major Upgrades: Camera, Display to Battery
Excitement is already building around Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S27 flagship series, even though its launch is still some time away. According to fresh leaks, the company could introduce several major upgrades to the Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra, including a redesigned rear camera setup, an improved Privacy Display and a larger battery.
The smartphone is expected to launch in early 2027. While Samsung has not officially confirmed its specifications, price or launch date, leaked information has offered an early glimpse of what the next-generation flagship could bring.
Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra May Feature a Redesigned Camera Layout
According to a report by Android Headlines, dummy units based on leaked CAD designs suggest that Samsung could make significant changes to the Galaxy S27 Ultra's rear camera arrangement.
The camera modules may be positioned higher on the back panel than on the current model. This could create more space for magnetic accessories, including wireless chargers and battery packs.
The change may also address alignment issues reportedly experienced with magnetic accessories on the Galaxy S26 Ultra due to the positioning of its camera module.
However, it remains unclear whether Samsung will integrate built-in Qi2 magnets into the Galaxy S27 Ultra.
Galaxy S27 Ultra: Expected Size and Design
According to the leaked dummy model, the Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra could measure 163.76 x 78.25 x 7.97 mm.
For comparison, the Galaxy S26 Ultra measures 163.6 x 78.1 x 7.9 mm. This suggests that the upcoming smartphone could be marginally larger than its predecessor.
Samsung is also expected to retain the dedicated S Pen slot, indicating that stylus support may continue to be a key feature of its Ultra lineup.
Improved Privacy Display Could Be a Major Upgrade
According to a report by SamMobile, Samsung is reportedly working on an improved Privacy Display technology for the Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra already features a Privacy Display that reduces screen visibility when viewed from the sides. This helps protect sensitive information from people nearby, particularly when users access their phones in public places.
The technology could receive further improvements in the next-generation models. One expected enhancement is better brightness, which could make the display easier to view in brightly lit environments while maintaining privacy.
However, the standard Galaxy S27 and Galaxy S27+ models are less likely to receive this feature, according to the report.
Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra: Expected Camera Specifications
Leaks suggest that the Galaxy S27 Ultra could feature a 200MP primary camera. The expected camera setup may also include:
- 50MP ultra-wide camera
- 50MP telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom
The report also suggests that Samsung could remove the existing 3x telephoto camera from the upcoming model. If this information proves accurate, the company may be planning a significant change to its camera system.
However, the final camera specifications have not been confirmed.
5,700mAh Battery and 60W Fast Charging Expected
Battery capacity and charging speed could also receive an upgrade in the Galaxy S27 Ultra.
The smartphone is tipped to feature a 5,700mAh battery with support for 60W wired fast charging. It could also be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Extreme chipset.
Other expected specifications include a 6.89-inch display.
The Galaxy S27 Pro, meanwhile, is reportedly being developed with a 6.47-inch screen and a 5,200mAh battery. It could also support 60W fast charging.
These specifications are based on leaks and may change before the official launch.
Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra Price: How Much Could It Cost?
Samsung has not revealed the expected price of the Galaxy S27 Ultra. The company has also not officially confirmed its specifications or launch timeline.
Considering the reported upgrades, including a redesigned camera system, improved Privacy Display, 200MP primary camera and larger battery, the Galaxy S27 Ultra is expected to remain a premium flagship smartphone.
Its actual price will be announced by Samsung closer to the launch.
The Galaxy S27 series is expected to debut in early 2027. More details about its design, features and pricing are likely to emerge in the coming months as the launch approaches.
