TL;DR
- Samsung will reportedly add a new “Pro” model to the Galaxy S27 series, bringing the lineup to four variants alongside the Standard, Plus, and Ultra models.
- The so-called Galaxy S27 Pro is expected to offer most of the Ultra’s features but skip the S Pen, creating a second high-end option in Samsung’s S series.
- The move appears to be aimed at competing directly with Apple’s four-model iPhone lineup.
Samsung is reportedly planning to expand its flagship Galaxy S series to four models next year.
According to Korean publication ETNews, Samsung will be adding a new “Pro” variant to the Galaxy S27 series alongside the Standard, Plus, and Ultra models.
The publication cites industry sources, claiming that this so-called Galaxy S27 Pro will be positioned as a second high-end option, positioned below the Galaxy S27 Ultra. The Pro model is expected to share most of the Ultra’s features but drop S Pen support, potentially offering a more streamlined premium option.
Moreover, this new “Pro” model is also expected to feature Samsung’s new Privacy Display tech that we’ve seen on the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
The move would mark Samsung’s first major lineup expansion in two years and appears aimed at competing more directly with Apple’s four-model iPhone strategy.
