2027 is almost here and it seems as if the year has disappeared in a cloud of smoke. The arrival of the new year also means that Samsung’s new Galaxy devices are just around the corner, particularly the long-awaited Galaxy S27 series. After a whirlwind of leaks, the flagship range has seemingly resurfaced, this time courtesy of Samsung itself. Even more exciting, new leaks hint at which color variants will be headed to the Galaxy S27 lineup. Samsung Galaxy S27 Wallpapers If you’ve been following along, you’ll know that the Galaxy S27 will be offered in new colorways, which is the usual look Samsung brings to each flagship series every year. And what better way to reveal it ahead of time? Through a set of wallpapers. These new wallpapers were discovered within one of the new One UI builds by the folks at SammyGuru. As seen in the shared set, it includes five abstract wallpapers with a twisted strip in monochrome palettes. These don’t hint at anything obvious with a “27” or “7” shape, but they are very similar to Samsung’s. The interesting thing is the choice of tones. These come in deep or navy blue, light blue, white, light pink, and red or burgundy. Coincidentally, four of these colors were said to be variants of the Galaxy S27 Ultra, according to prolific leaker IceUniverse over a month ago, not including burgundy. However, we can expect Samsung to offer exclusive color combinations available only at its Samsung Store. One of them is black or graphite, which was not included. But there will probably be other nuances as well.

Technically, if these are indeed final wallpaper packs, it suggests that the Galaxy S27 series will be offered in these five shades. It’s unclear if the Vanilla S27 will share all colorways with the S27 Pro and S27 Ultra, but given that the current S26 series shares the same colors across all models, that could be the case next year. Among the palettes, red or burgundy appears to be the new primary layer here, replacing cobalt purple on the Galaxy S26. The new color will match the new design of the Galaxy S27 Ultra and Pro. The duo is shown in renders with a new back panel and a wide rectangular camera island, mirroring the design of the iPhone 18 Pro. Meanwhile, the base Galaxy S26 could maintain the same familiar look, with a floating camera lens in a vertical arrangement on the back panel. Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil the Galaxy S27 earlier than usual, with industry rumors pointing to late January or early February 2027.
