Samsung Galaxy A27: Specs, design and colours leaked ahead of launch

Samsung is preparing to release the Galaxy A27 in the second half of 2026, expanding its mid-range lineup with a redesigned smartphone. Leaked renders from OnLeaks and MyMobiles show three color options: Black, Blue, and Light Pink, along with a flat-screen design and thinner bezels compared to its predecessor, the Galaxy A26. The front display will feature a punch-hole camera cutout instead of the previous waterdrop-style notch, while the rear retains a flat panel with a pill-shaped camera module positioned in the top-left corner and Samsung branding at the bottom." "The Galaxy A27 is expected to include a 6.7-inch Full HD+ display, likely using a 120Hz AMOLED panel, and will run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor, replacing Samsung’s Exynos chipset. The device will offer up to 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage, though microSD card expansion is reportedly not supported. A Bajaj Finserv report suggests the 8GB RAM + 128GB storage model may cost around ₹21,999 in India." "Photography capabilities will include a triple rear camera setup, led by a 50-megapixel primary sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS), alongside a 5-megapixel ultra-wide and a 2-megapixel macro camera. The front features a 12-megapixel selfie camera. The device will pack a 5,000mAh battery with 25W wired fast charging and weigh approximately 200 grams, measuring 162.4 × 78.2 × 7.8 mm." "The Galaxy A27 will support dual-SIM functionality and run on Android 16 with OneUI 8.5. While Samsung has not confirmed the official launch date or global pricing, leaks indicate the phone will debut later in 2026, offering an upgrade in both design and hardware over its predecessor.
