Galaxy S27 Pro has a special privilege for Exynos

Galaxy S27 Pro may be the only Galaxy S27 model to come with LPDDR6 memory. Meeco user 흡혈귀왕 (Vampire King) claimed that this memory will only be offered in the 1TB Pro version. Moreover, it is claimed that this advantage will never be seen in Europe, where the Snapdragon Pro is sold.

Different distribution in South Korea and Europe

The date of the post is November 6. According to the user, the Galaxy S27, Galaxy S27+ and Galaxy S27 Pro in South Korea will be released with the Exynos processor. The only model with Snapdragon will be the Galaxy S27 Ultra.

It is stated that the distribution was checked the previous week and did not change. The user attributes this to the fact that Samsung headquarters does not want to exceed the project budget. So this distinction may be based on cost calculation rather than design decision.

The picture is different in Europe. In previously covered NBD trade records, Europe's Galaxy S27 Pro model codenamed SM-S957B/DS appears to be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 processor. Exynos 2700 is reserved there only for Galaxy S27 and Galaxy S27+.

Why might Galaxy S27 Pro LPDDR6 remain Exynos exclusive?

According to the same post, Samsung plans to offer LPDDR6 memory only in the 1 TB Galaxy S27 Pro. The second post dated November 12 describes this model more clearly. Accordingly, the phone will have 1 TB UFS 5.0 storage and 16 GB LPDDR6 RAM instead of 12 GB.

Qualcomm's choice is decisive here, because the company reserves LPDDR6 only for Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6. Standard Gen 6 is limited to LPDDR5X. For this reason, a faster memory option for the Pro with Snapdragon does not seem to be on the table for now.

Therefore, the Snapdragon Pro to be sold in Europe will have LPDDR5X memory, regardless of the storage option. LPDDR6 will only remain in Pro with Exynos. On the other hand, there is no additional information about which markets the Pro with Exynos will be sold.

Release date unknown

Samsung hasn't announced a launch date yet. Current estimates point the Unpacked event to January or February 2027. The prices of the phones have not been disclosed.

Additionally, Meeco shares are not considered verified information. Therefore, configurations may change until launch. Still, memory separation and processor distribution strengthen the claims that Samsung will offer different models according to regions.
