Leaker: Galaxy S27 Prices Could Rise $74–$96 in Korea
A leaker claims Samsung will raise Galaxy S27 prices across models and storage tiers, with hikes of roughly 100,000 to over 130,000 won in Korea.
A leaker has claimed that Samsung plans wide-ranging price increases for its Galaxy S27 series. The claim, attributed to the leaker yeux1122, says the hikes would apply across various storage capacities and models.
In Korea, the claimed increases could range from about 100,000 won to over 130,000 won, or roughly $74 to $96. The leaker did not specify exact pricing for individual variants.
The same leaker previously claimed that the Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra could use UFS 5.1 storage and LPDDR6 RAM. Those claims concern specs, not pricing.
The pricing claim follows a broader pattern of rising smartphone costs. In 2026, Samsung was forced to increase the price of its smartphones amid a RAM crisis driven by AI companies buying up memory and other key components, as reported by androidauthority.com.
Earlier, the Galaxy S26 phones saw price increases across most variants. The base 256GB model started at $900, a $100 increase over the 128GB Galaxy S25 and a $40 increase over the 256GB variant.
