Leaked render suggests Samsung Galaxy S27 Ultra may adopt flat camera module
A sketch and AI-generated renders shared by a prominent leaker indicate that Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S27 Ultra could feature a flat, horizontal camera bar similar to recent iPhone models.
A sketch posted by a well-known leaker, accompanied by AI-generated renders, appears to show the final design of Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S27 Ultra camera module. The rendering depicts a horizontal bar layout that resembles the flat camera plateau seen on the iPhone 17 Pro, rather than the protruding camera bump used on current Samsung flagships. The design could improve stability when the phone rests on a surface and may free up space for magnetic Qi2 accessories, which have not been available on the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
The leaker, identified as Ice Universe, confirmed on a social platform that the sketch pertains to the S27 Ultra and warned that the design could attract criticism. Analysts note that similar flat camera arrangements have appeared on some Xiaomi and Poco devices before Apple introduced the style.
If the render reflects the production model, Samsung would be aligning its flagship camera aesthetics with a trend seen across other manufacturers, potentially offering practical benefits such as a lower profile and better accessory integration.
