Every last camera spec for the upcoming series has allegedly leaked, giving us a clear look at what Samsung has planned for the future.

As ever with leaks, take these with a pinch of salt. But if these leaks are true, Samsung fans may be upset at what look like more cost-cutting efforts from Samsung.

The Galaxy S27 camera specs are a mixed bag

Improvements to the most expensive models only

The AI bubble has meant an increase in component prices across the tech world, so it's no surprise that companies have had to make sacrifices in order to keep prices within certain bounds. Phones across the market have made do with smaller upgrades, downgrades, and even modest price rises in order to forestall the sort of changes that would make smartphone upgrades completely pointless. Unfortunately, it seems that problem will continue with the Galaxy S27 range.

These leaks have come from the reliable SammyGuru, and list the megapixel count of each lens, as well as any potential zoom, and its manufacturer.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating, but there's a lot we can surmise from the specs alone. First is that the most expensive models are the ones getting the biggest upgrades. The and Ultra will be the models getting some level of upgrade, with the 200MP main lens looking to be similar to the ISOCELL HPC sensor. That means it'll probably have an expanded dynamic range.

But it's not all good news for the Pro and Ultra models. Despite its high-end aspirations, the Pro is being restricted to a 3x telephoto zoom, while the Ultra loses its extra 3x lens as well. As noted in other coverage, the 3x lens wasn't as good as the rest, so it's not a massive loss, but it does mean the Ultra feels even less premium than it did before. Samsung really can't afford to fall behind in a world where the exists.

The Galaxy S27 and S27 Plus are getting the worst of the deal, being largely unchanged from previous iterations. Price crunches affect cheaper phones worse than more expensive ones, so it makes sense these are being impacted harder. Still, it doesn't look good.

Fans haven't taken well to this news. A reaction thread to the news on Reddit has gathered largely negative comments, with fans unsure whether they'll stick with Samsung when it comes time to upgrade.
