Samsung accidentally leaked its next popular phone, and one change may divide fans

• Samsung accidentally leaked the Galaxy A27, revealing nearly everything before the official launch.
• A Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chip apparently replaces previous Exynos processors, paired with up to 256GB of expandable storage.
• Samsung appears to have downgraded water resistance from IP67 to IP64.

Samsung just made a classic blunder, inadvertently leaking the product page of the unannounced Galaxy A27 on its Czech Republic website. The company took down the webpage quickly, but the internet kept the receipts. What we have here is a mid-range phone that packs some serious processor muscle, a massive software perk, but it seems to drop the ball on water resistance.

The now-deleted product page, which was spotted by SamMobile, listed the phone as having a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The Galaxy A26 could finally ditch the old notch design in favor of a modern Infinity-O hole-punch cutout for its 12MP selfie camera.
