Higher prices in South Korea expected
Meanwhile, price increases are expected from every smartphone manufacturer these days, which is hardly surprising given the current component crisis. Samsung will likely not be able to avoid raising prices for the Galaxy S27 Ultra either. According to @kro_roe, launch prices in South Korea are expected to be up to 150,000 won (90 euros, US$105) higher which would actually be quite moderate, given that similar price increases are already anticipated for the Galaxy S26 FE in Europe. We might also fail to see expected features like UFS 5.0 and LPDDR6.
