Samsung Galaxy A27 is delayed, not discontinued. The rumor mill predicted in November that this device would launch alongside Galaxy A37 and A57. As you all know, that didn’t pan out. Galaxy A27 is still in R&D, and it should debut soon. Geekbench and GalaxyClub exposed a few preliminary details about it.
Yes, the phone has gone up on Geekbench. That’s actually proof that Samsung is internally testing the A27’s performance. It did better than the Galaxy A26 because they’ve used the same chipset on the A27 that was seen on the Galaxy A36 last year.
Geekbench doesn’t exactly show the model of this chip. So we had to dig a little deeper. The core architecture (4 x 2.4GHz + 4 x 1.8GHz) with the GPU name (Adreno 710) found in the source code makes it pretty obvious that it’s a Snapdragon 6 Gen 3. The test figures are right at the top.
A single-core on the Galaxy A27 will score about 777 points on average. The multicore test hit 1802 points. And the benchmark version they used is v6.6. The numbers show exactly what we were expecting. Galaxy A27 is meant to be a basic entry-level phone. Here are the latest updates regarding Samsung smartphone prices and models as of early April 2026.
By the way, this specific A27 trim has Android 16 and 6GB RAM. GalaxyClub found other details about the phone and shared them. Apparently, a selfie camera upgrade is a possibility this time. They will throw out the older 13MP sensor.
The A27 could bring a newer 12MP outsole. So it will have better light intake. That could, in theory, boost the selfie quality on the Galaxy A27. But there’s no good news for the rear cameras. It all looks the same as last year’s A26.
They’ll put a 50MP main unit on the back. The second camera could be an 8MP ultrawide. And there’s possibly a third 5MP macro lens on the deco. Galaxy A27 didn’t launch on time. So the entire schedule was thrown off balance. We’ll let you know if we hear anything launch-related. Keep watching the news for updates.
