Samsung is once again rumored to bring a Pro version, this time with the Galaxy S27 lineup, to revamp its flagship tier.
Based on a recent report, Samsung wants to add a new device to the lineup in 2027. It’s indicated that the S27 Pro will align with the S27 Ultra to offer top features in two devices, instead of only one. On the other hand, it wants to keep the standard and the Plus version as the consumer-friendly models.
This move aligns with Apple’s strategy of launching four phones – Standard, Air, Pro, and Pro Max. The iPhone maker offers its best specs with the latter two models and keeps the former as a base and a slim category.
However, this is not the first time Samsung has been rumored to bring this change to consumers. Last year, we heard the same about the Galaxy S26 Pro, which leaked online through CAD renders. After a successful hype, the plan, which had no official confirmation, was cancelled.
On the other hand, Samsung made an attempt to expand the Galaxy S25 series with the S25 Edge and miserably failed on the sales chart. Before this sales failure, Samsung was rumored to replace the Plus version with the S26 Edge. Similar to the S26 Pro, the design schemes for this rumored phone appeared before the launch, but Samsung revived the plans for Galaxy S26 Plus and vacated the S26 Edge.
Both appearances of such reports and the cancellation have never been verified by the company. However, it shows a practical approach based on consumer response.
Since the plan is about expanding the S-series, the Galaxy S27 Pro could sit below the S27 Ultra. They could share features like privacy display and a 200MP camera together. However, the larger variant will dominate the display and overall camera features.
Meanwhile, the latest reports about the Galaxy S27 Pro could only be taken with a pinch of salt due to such rumors proving false in the past. So, we could wait for a clearer picture of the model, if Samsung has any in the making.
