TL;DR
- According to a new leak, Samsung’s Galaxy S27 Ultra could weigh 218 grams while retaining the same 7.9mm thickness as the Galaxy S26 Ultra.
- The added weight may be due to recent reports that Samsung is equipping the next Ultra flagship with a larger 5,700mAh battery pack.
- However, the Galaxy S27 Ultra may beat the Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max in both weight and thickness, if this leak is accurate.
