Samsung dedicates majority of production to Galaxy S27 Pro, Ultra

For the past several months, we have been seeing countless leaks about the Galaxy S27 series. Two models from the four stand out the most: Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra. It looks like these two models will be what most people will go for, and Samsung wants to make sure there are enough to go around.

According to a report by Korean publication ET News, Samsung has dedicated over 70% of its total production volume for the Galaxy S27 series to the Galaxy S27 Pro and Ultra. The remaining 30% is for the Galaxy S27 base model and the Galaxy S27 Plus (+).

With the Galaxy S26 series, about 50% of the production volume was reserved for the Galaxy S27 Ultra. With the introduction of the second high-end offering — the Galaxy S27 Pro — Samsung has decided to take more away from the entry-level and mid-range offerings. The reason for this decision is increasing component costs and the dependence on larger profit margins that come from high-end offerings.

Samsung is continuing its decision to put in more effort towards the high-end phones with the Galaxy S27 series. Last month, it was reported that it would be scaling down production of its low-end and mid-range Galaxy A series phones as well.

For now, pricing is unclear, with one leak suggesting a $900 starting price for the Galaxy S27, $1,099 for the Galaxy S27 Plus, $1,299 for the Galaxy S27 Pro, and $1,399 for the Galaxy S27 Ultra.
