Samsung plans to equip its 1 TB Exynos-powered Galaxy S27 Pro with LPDDR6 memory, according to unverified posts by Meeco user 흡혈귀왕 (Vampire King). The claimed configuration would give that version faster RAM than the Snapdragon-powered Pro expected in Europe.

The leaker’s November 6 post assigns Exynos chips to South Korea’s Galaxy S27, Galaxy S27+ and Galaxy S27 Pro, with Snapdragon reserved for the Galaxy S27 Ultra. The user attributed that split to budget limits imposed by Samsung headquarters. A November 12 follow-up specified 16 GB of LPDDR6 RAM, rather than 12 GB, alongside 1 TB of UFS 5.0 storage for the Pro.

Notebookcheck reported that NBD trade records list Europe’s Galaxy S27 Pro, model SM-S957B/DS, with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6. Its account places the Exynos 2700 in Europe’s Galaxy S27 and Galaxy S27+. The report says the standard Snapdragon chip supports LPDDR5X, while Qualcomm reserves LPDDR6 for the Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6, meaning the European Pro would remain on LPDDR5X.

Samsung has announced neither pricing nor a launch date. Current projections put Unpacked in January or February 2027. The Meeco claims remain unverified, and the phone configurations could change before launch.
