Galaxy S27 release date: Samsung hasn't announced it, but here's when Unpacked usually lands

Samsung has not announced the Galaxy S27. There is no official release date, price or Unpacked date yet. What Samsung's own record shows is a pattern: the Galaxy S24, S25 and S26 were each unveiled at a Galaxy Unpacked event between mid-January and late February, announced about two weeks ahead, and the S25 and S26 went on sale about two weeks after the show. The current Galaxy S26 lineup starts at $899.99 in the US.

Samsung has not announced the Galaxy S27. There is no release date, no price and no Galaxy Unpacked date for 2027 yet. Samsung’s own launch history does show when the next Galaxy S phones have arrived in recent years, so here is the pattern, along with what the current Galaxy S26 costs.

When will the Galaxy S27 come out?

Samsung has not said. Its last three Galaxy S launches followed the same shape: an invitation about two weeks before the show, a Galaxy Unpacked event between mid-January and late February, and, for the S25 and S26, sales about two weeks later.

If Samsung keeps this pattern, which it has not confirmed, the Galaxy S27 would be unveiled between mid-January and late February 2027, with the invitation about two weeks earlier. Each of the last three events streamed at 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET.

How much will the Galaxy S27 cost?

Samsung has not announced a price. For reference, here is what the Galaxy S26 costs in the US.

The Ultra is the model most buyers go for: Samsung said the Galaxy S26 Ultra was chosen by more than 70% of pre-order customers worldwide, and that early S26 pre-orders beat its previous records with double-digit growth.

Nothing official about the Galaxy S27 itself. The Galaxy S26 family grew on Aug. 27, 2026, when Samsung introduced the Galaxy S26 FE, and the latest foldables, Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Z Fold8 and Z Flip8, arrived at Galaxy Unpacked in July 2026.
