Previously, Samsung used a dual chipset strategy, a combination of Exynos and Snapdragon processors across its flagship Galaxy S series. The Galaxy S27 lineup is also expected to follow this approach; it could launch the vanilla Galaxy S27, Galaxy S27+, and Galaxy S27 Pro with Exynos 2700 in South Korea and Europe. The variants launching in the US and China, and the Galaxy S27 Ultra, could run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 series.
