Samsung Galaxy S27 Pro Leaks With Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 as Ultra Gets 12GB Extreme Chip

3 articles · Updated · Notebookcheck.net · Nov 4

Summary

  • NBD trade records list all four European Galaxy S27 variants and show Samsung splitting chips across the lineup: Exynos 2700 for the S27 and S27+, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 for the S27 Pro, and Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6 for the Ultra.
  • The leak points to an unusual tiering in which the Pro model does not get Qualcomm’s top chip, while the larger S27 Ultra carries the flagship Extreme version.
  • All four entries show 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, with displays at 6.3 inches for the S27, 6.7 for the S27+, 6.5 for the Pro, and 6.9 for the Ultra.
  • Samsung has not announced the Galaxy S27 series, so the import-export data remains preliminary until the company confirms final specifications.
