Galaxy S27 Ultra: Camera Cut, iPhone Design?

Over the past weekend, leaked renders and drawings have surfaced, offering a glimpse into a redesigned Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra. These images suggest a notable departure from previous designs, potentially including the subtraction of a camera. The leaked visuals indicate a new horizontal bar design, drawing comparisons to the aesthetics of other major smartphone brands.

Further details from leaks suggest that the S27 Ultra might adopt a dual-camera setup, moving away from its current triple-lens configuration. One of the leaked sketches also points to the integration of a Qi2 magnet for wireless charging. The upcoming S27 lineup is anticipated for release in early 2027, likely maintaining a schedule similar to the S26 series' February launch.

In addition to design changes, there are indications that Samsung may introduce two sizes for the Ultra model, a strategy akin to Apple's Pro and Pro Max offerings. This could lead to the introduction of a new S27 Pro model. Leaks also hint at speaker placement variations across the S27, S27 Plus, S27 Pro, and S27 Ultra models, with the latter two possibly featuring speakers on opposite sides.
