Samsung Galaxy A27 in for review | Infinium-tech
Samsung recently started selling the new Galaxy A27 in the US, Europe, and India and here’s what’s changed compared to its predecessor.
The display now has a punch hole notch instead of a teardrop; While the SoC is the 4nm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 (replacing the 5nm Exynos 1380), and you’ve got 6 or 8 GHz of RAM (no longer a 4GB option). However, the ultrawide with its 5MP sensor (versus 8MP) is worse on paper, and the phone has downgraded the Galaxy A26’s IP67 to only show IP64. The battery capacity remains unchanged at 5,000mAh.
The Galaxy A27 sports the same design refresh that we saw on the Galaxy A57 and A37, with a colour-filled camera island. However, this is not evident on the black model we have. You can also get the Galaxy A27 in blue, light green, and light pink colors.
We like the way the Galaxy A27 feels in the hand. It is solid and in good shape. However its finish is a fingerprint and dust magnet, and the color also does little to hide it.
Samsung’s Key Island Design
The price for the 6/128GB model of the Galaxy A27 starts at €350, although you can already find it at third-party retailers for around €280. It’s not that dangerously close to the Poco X8 Pro, which costs just over €350 with twice the storage. It’s not a good look for the Galaxy when you compare the specifications of the two.
There’s a USB-C cable in the box and that’s it. Stay tuned for our findings right on the phone!
