Summary
Samsung’s Galaxy A27 makes only modest changes to the A26, pairing a new punch-hole Infinity-O display with the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 and little else upgraded.
The new Qualcomm chip delivers just a 10% to 20% performance gain over last year’s Exynos-based model, while the phone keeps the same 5,000 mAh battery and 25W charging.
Several specs move backward: the ultrawide camera drops to 5MP from 8MP, ingress protection falls to IP64 from IP67, and Bluetooth support slips to 5.1 from 5.3.
Pricing shown in the review lists the 128GB/6GB model at £319 or €259, with the 256GB/8GB version at £379 or €438.99.
In the box, Samsung includes only a USB-C to USB-C cable, underscoring the A27’s position as a lightly refreshed mid-range model rather than a clear step up.
