A new rumor says Samsung’s Galaxy S27 Pro and S27 Ultra could differ in only one rear camera: a 50MP telephoto with 3.5x optical zoom on the Pro versus a 50MP 5x unit on the Ultra.
The rest of the camera hardware is tipped to match, with both phones reportedly using a 200MP main sensor and a 50MP ultrawide, narrowing the gap between the two flagship models.
Samsung is also rumored to drop the Ultra’s separate 3x telephoto camera, a move tied to reports that the current setup underdelivers and that the company wants a cleaner premium lineup.
If accurate, the S27 Pro would arrive as a near-Ultra option with fewer compromises, signaling Samsung may position it above a typical lower-tier flagship ahead of its 2027 launch.
Will Samsung's best camera sensor debut on a rival's phone before its own 2027 flagship?
Is the Galaxy S27 Pro a brilliant move against Apple or a costly repeat of past failures?
