Samsung’s next Galaxy A series phone, the Galaxy A27, is getting closer to launch. While we do not have an official launch date yet, the device just cleared an important regulatory hurdle ahead of its debut — FCC certification. It looks set for a global rollout soon.

Samsung’s Galaxy A27 spotted on FCC

Multiple variants of the Galaxy A27 recently appeared on the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) database. The listing mentions model numbers SM-A276B, SM-A276U, SM-A276U1, and SM-S276V. These represent the global model, US carrier-locked variant, US factory-unlocked variant, and TracFone version, respectively.

While the certification does not reveal any specifications, previous retail listings have already confirmed most of the key details. Samsung is expected to give the Galaxy A27 a more modern and refined look compared to the Galaxy A26. The device could feature a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED display with slimmer bezels, a 120Hz refresh rate, and a punch-hole camera design.

Samsung could offer a 12MP selfie camera here, while the rear camera setup may include a 50MP primary shooter with OIS, a 5MP ultrawide lens, and a 2MP macro camera. The handset should be available in multiple colors.

Under the hood, Samsung should equip the Galaxy A27 with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chipset. A 5,000mAh battery may fuel the device, paired with 25W fast wired charging support. The Galaxy A27 will launch with Android 16 QPR2-based One UI 8.5 out of the box. It should receive long-term software support, likely up to 6 years.

Samsung could unveil the Galaxy A27 in a month or two, though it’s unlikely to be part of the company’s July Unpacked event. It could cost around $300, though rising production costs could add to its final price. As the launch approaches, more details about the device should continue to surface, so stay tuned.
