Galaxy S27 Ultra and S27 Pro to share this camera layout, here’s the design

Samsung‘s next flagship phones may share a more compact rear camera cluster than earlier leaks suggested. A new post from Ice Universe includes a line sketch of the back of the phone and says this is the actual, final camera arrangement for the Galaxy S27 Ultra and the Galaxy S27 Pro. The two phones are still expected to arrive in early 2027.

Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra and S27 Pro camera design

The sketch shows a raised camera island in the top-left corner of the rear panel. Two large lenses sit in a diagonal stack, with a smaller third lens to the right, a round flash or sensor module above that lens, and a small pinhole between them, forming a tight, diamond-like cluster of four circles.

That layout looks more compact than the wide rectangular camera plateau shown in earlier renders and later CAD leaks. Those reports, and dummy units built from the same idea, pointed to two cameras stacked on the left and a pill-shaped section on the right, with a large stretch of empty space inside the island.

It would also move away from the Galaxy S26 Ultra‘s vertical camera setup. The current Ultra uses a pill-shaped island with a vertical stack of lenses and a fourth camera sitting beside it on the back panel. The leaked cluster gathers those elements into a tighter group rather than spreading them down the back.

Ice Universe says the same arrangement applies to the Galaxy S27 Pro, the new model Samsung is adding between the Galaxy S27+ and the Ultra. Earlier coverage already pointed to a similar look for the two phones, with the Pro expected to be smaller and without an S Pen. Sharing a camera island would further align their design, even if the camera hardware is still expected to differ.

Earlier leaks have generally pointed to a 200-megapixel main sensor on both the Pro and the Ultra, with the Ultra likely moving to a three-camera rear setup by dropping the dedicated 3x telephoto. Supply chain reports have outlined that split, though the exact zoom hardware is still not settled. The Galaxy S27 series is still expected in January or February 2027.
