The Galaxy S27 series is beginning to appear on certification platforms ahead of its expected debut. Samsung’s upcoming flagship lineup has now made an appearance in China’s 3C certification database. The listing offers an early look at the charging capabilities of two models while also providing an indication of when the new phones could arrive.

Galaxy S27 series gets 3C certification

The Galaxy S27 has appeared with the model number SM-S9520, while the Galaxy S27 Plus carries the model number SM-S9560. The 3C certification lists charging support of up to 27W for the Galaxy S27 and 45W for the Galaxy S27 Plus. Both smartphones are also listed without a charger in the box.

The charging specifications continue Samsung’s established approach for its flagship S series. The standard Galaxy S lineup has retained 25W charging since the Galaxy S20, which debuted in 2020, making the Galaxy S27 the seventh consecutive generation to follow this charging setup.

Meanwhile, the S+ models moved to 45W charging with the Galaxy S22+ in 2022, putting the Galaxy S27+ on track to continue the same 45W configuration for the fifth consecutive year.

Early launch expected

The timing of the approval is particularly interesting. The Galaxy S26 series appeared in China’s 3C database in January 2026 before becoming official in March. The Galaxy S25 series, meanwhile, received its 3C approval in September 2024 and launched in January 2025.

With the Galaxy S27 and S27 Plus already clearing 3C certification in September 2026, Samsung could potentially move the launch forward compared with the Galaxy S26 lineup. A January 2027 unveiling therefore looks possible, although Samsung has yet to confirm any launch plans.

Rumors suggest that the S27 lineup will also introduce a new model called the Galaxy S27 Pro. The device is expected to sit between the S27+ and S27 Ultra in Samsung’s lineup. With the standard and Plus models already certified by 3C, it may not be long before the Pro and Ultra variants receive their own certification.
