Galaxy S27 Pro and S27 Ultra could make up over 70% of all Galaxy S27 sales

Due to the ongoing memory chip shortage, smartphone brands are forced to think of multiple ways to reduce losses. One of the most common ways is to sell more high-end models and fewer affordable models. And Samsung appears to have chosen the same solution for the Galaxy S27 series.

A report from South Korea claims that Samsung is planning to allocate over 70% of its total Galaxy S27 series manufacturing volume to the Galaxy S27 Pro and the Galaxy S27 Ultra, while 30% will be allocated for the relatively lower-priced Galaxy S27 and the Galaxy S27+ models.

Apparently, it plans to manufacture around 18 million units of the Galaxy S27 Ultra and 7-8 million units of the Galaxy S27 Pro. Typically, Samsung sells around 35 million units of Galaxy S series phones each year.

Since lower-priced phones yield lower profits, Smasung wants to sell more higher-end models even in its Galaxy S series, which typically start at over $800 ($900 for the base Galaxy S26 model) in the US. Whether or not it will price the Galaxy S27 series the same as its predecessor remains to be seen.

Previous reports have claimed that Samsung is planning to make 20% fewer units of its Galaxy A series low-end and mid-range phones.
