Samsung Galaxy A27 Price Leak: €349 to €439 for Two Variants
Key Takeaways
- Galaxy A27 expected to start at €349 (6GB/128GB) and top out at €439 (8GB/256GB)
- Price increase of €50-€70 over the A26 predecessor
- Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 replaces Exynos 1380, with six years of software support promised
What the Leak Reveals
Samsung's Galaxy A27 pricing has surfaced ahead of an official announcement. According to the leak, the phone will come in two configurations: a 6GB RAM/128GB storage variant at €349 and an 8GB RAM/256GB storage variant at €439.
This represents a €50 price bump for the base model and €70 for the top-end option compared to the Galaxy A26. Converting to Indian rupees, that translates to roughly ₹38,425 for the 128GB model and ₹47,200 for the 256GB version. Samsung has not announced India-specific pricing, so these figures may shift.
Logicity's Take
Expected Specifications
The Galaxy A27 is tipped to feature a 6.7-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The big hardware change is under the hood: Qualcomm's Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor replaces the Exynos 1380 chipset used in the A26.
“The shift to Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 marks a pivotal performance upgrade that distances the A-series further from entry-level constraints.”

For cameras, expect a triple rear setup: a 50MP primary sensor with optical image stabilization, a 5MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro shooter. The front camera is reported to be a 12MP selfie shooter.
Battery capacity stays at 5,000mAh with 25W charging support. The phone will reportedly ship with Android 16-based One UI 8.5 and receive six generations of OS updates plus six years of security patches. Color options include Light Pink, Blue, and Black.
The Missing microSD Slot
One notable omission: the Galaxy A27 may drop microSD card support entirely. This has been a staple feature for Samsung's A-series, letting budget-conscious buyers expand storage cheaply. Discussions on r/Samsung and r/Android show users are not happy about this change.
With only two storage options (128GB and 256GB) and no expansion slot, buyers who rely on local media storage will need to think carefully. The €90 jump from 128GB to 256GB stings when a microSD card costs a fraction of that.

Why the Price Increase?
Rising memory chip costs are the likely culprit. Analysts point to tightening DRAM and NAND supply as AI workloads consume more semiconductor capacity. Samsung appears to be passing some of that cost to consumers.
The longer software support window may also factor in. Six years of updates is unusual for a mid-range phone. Samsung is essentially promising to maintain this device until 2032. That commitment costs engineering resources.
Context on why component costs are rising
How It Stacks Up
At €349-€439, the Galaxy A27 sits in a competitive bracket. Chinese brands like Xiaomi, Realme, and OnePlus offer similar specs at lower prices, though Samsung's software longevity and brand trust remain selling points in many markets.
The Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 switch could give the A27 a performance edge over Exynos-powered predecessors, particularly for gaming and sustained workloads. Whether that justifies paying more depends on individual priorities.
