Summary

  • Multiple leakers say Samsung will bring a camera-bar redesign to the Galaxy S27 line, with the clearest reports pointing to the Galaxy S27 Ultra rather than the full lineup.
  • The leaked layout shows 3 rear cameras on a full-width plateau—2 lenses on the left, a pill-shaped third module and flash—reviving a design previously tied to the canceled Galaxy S26 Edge.
  • Ice Universe also shared a near-unchanged alternative design, while Sonny Dickson said the new look comes in 2 sizes, suggesting Samsung may extend it beyond the Ultra to a rumored Galaxy S27 Pro.
  • The Cipher Project separately said the S27 range will ship in 5 colors—black, white, blue, purple and pink—as Samsung is also rumored to drop a secondary telephoto lens to cut costs.
  • Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S27 series early next year, with the redesign adding to a broader shake-up that has also included battery and camera-spec rumors.
