Samsung is expected to launch all four early next year. SamMobile notes that spreading three processors over four phones is likely a first in Samsung’s recent history. It says the Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra use two different Snapdragon chips, the processors made by Qualcomm. Notebookcheck calls the Pro’s chip unexpected and says the Pro and Ultra come with a catch, though the excerpt does not spell out what that catch is.
Droid Life adds that the leak shows Samsung mixing its own Exynos processors with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon chips in 2027. It points out that by November, Samsung’s chip plan for the lineup should already be settled internally. Which phones get which chip, beyond the Pro and Ultra using Snapdragon, has not been laid out.
