If these Galaxy S27 Ultra renders are accurate, Samsung can’t stop Apple copycat claims
iPhones weren't the first to adopt this camera bump design, but it's interesting that Samsung might be adopting it now.
Renders of the Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra have been leaked online, showing a design with an iPhone-like camera plateau. According to Android Authority, the images, posted by tipster Sonny Dickson, suggest the phone may also have integrated magnets for Qi2 charging and other accessories.
The Galaxy S27 Ultra design appears to feature a camera bar with two lenses and a flash on one side, and a pill that may contain a third camera lens. This design has been compared to Apple's iPhone 17 series. Digital Trends also reports that Samsung may be considering two different sizes for the Galaxy S27 Ultra.
Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S27 series early next year. The Korea Times and Yonhap News report that Samsung is forecast to reclaim the top spot in the global smartphone market this year, overtaking Apple, with Samsung's shipments expected to rise 0.8 percent and Apple's shipments expected to decline 2.1 percent.
