Yet Another Model, Really?
Even though it won’t debut until next year, a multitude of rumors and leaks about the Galaxy S27 series has already emerged, and the latest hints at the inclusion of a fifth model.
Samsung is poised to broaden the flagship lineup back to four variations with the forthcoming Galaxy S27 Pro added to the S27, S27+, and S27 Ultra. Now, a source indicates that the S27 Edge will further enhance the lineup.
The Return of the Slimmest
This would result in Samsung bringing back its ultra-slim device first unveiled with the Galaxy S25 Edge, which was omitted from this year’s S26 series after being repeatedly canceled and rescheduled.

Specifications & Tech Features
The competitor to the iPhone Air is projected to become even more slender, entering the “low 4mm range,” as per kro, marking it comfortably over 1mm thinner than the 5.8mm S25 Edge.
This leak also indicates the device will feature a 5.8-inch display, which is considerably smaller than the S25 Edge’s 6.7-inch screen. It is expected to maintain an AMOLED panel, although it’s uncertain if it will include Samsung’s Privacy Display technology like the S26 Ultra.
According to Kro, the S27 Edge is set to possess a battery capacity of around 4300mAh. This represents a slight increase from the S25 Edge’s 3900mAh, and it is reasonable to presume that, due to a much sleeker design and a smaller overall form factor, given the display size, Samsung will utilize Silicon-Carbon battery technology to facilitate this.
Comparative Overview
| S27 Edge | S25 Edge | iPhone Air | |
| Thickness | Low 4mm range | 5.8mm | 5.6mm |
| Battery | 4300mAh | 3900mAh | 3149mAh |
| Screen | 5.8-inch | 6.7-inch | 6.5-inch |
What Remains Uncertain
This encompasses all the available details, which raises numerous questions, such as which processor the device will utilize (Qualcomm or Samsung’s own Exynos), alongside the pricing and anticipated release date.
Reflecting on the Galaxy S25 Edge’s debut, its successor may likely launch later in the year than the remainder of the Galaxy S27 series. Samsung is anticipated to unveil them at a Galaxy Unpacked event in January or February of 2027, after which the Edge model could arrive a few months later – May would align with the S25 Edge, which was previewed alongside the rest of the S25 lineup.
Future Predictions
Overall, Samsung might introduce six S27 variants if we assume a Galaxy S27 FE will debut around the same time next year to take over from the recently revealed Galaxy S26 FE.
Conclusion: Call 999 for Another Galaxy Variant
There you have it, another Galaxy model in the lineup. It’s as if they’re producing phones like my Jack Russell puppies.
