New rumors are circulating about which chipset Samsung may use in the Galaxy S27 Ultra, with no official announcement from the company so far. According to SamMobile, citing tipster Ice Universe, there are no indications of an Exynos 2700 version of the phone for Europe.
The reports suggest Samsung will use a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip for the Galaxy S27 Ultra in Europe rather than the Exynos 2700. The situation for South Korea reportedly remains unclear.
The rumored plan reportedly covers at least the European and South Korean markets, and the Ultra is said to get the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Extreme in some markets. Earlier rumors said the base Galaxy S27 models may get the Exynos 2700.
On performance, the leaks claim the Exynos 2700 outperforms the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Extreme in performance tests, while the Exynos 2600 has emerged as one of the most energy-efficient processors in several tests. The source is a SamMobile report by Abid Iqbal Shaik, last updated October 30, 2026, and it states no price, availability or launch date.
There is no price or launch information for the Galaxy S27 Ultra in Egypt or the Gulf yet, and the phone has not been officially announced. For buyers deciding now, the current Galaxy S26 Ultra is listed at 72,400 EGP at B.TECH in Egypt, 3,699 SAR at Amazon.sa in Saudi Arabia, and 3,205 AED at Amazon.ae in the UAE. Since the reported change concerns the chipset in some markets only, those who want a phone today can look at the S26 Ultra, while anyone waiting for the next generation should watch for Samsung's official confirmation.
