In its latest earnings call, Samsung has teased its plans for the Galaxy S27 as well as new foldables and its Android XR glasses.
As RAMageddon rages on – with no signs of slowing – Samsung postedyetanother operating loss in its mobile division. Daniel Araujo, VP of Samsung’s mobile division, says to expect “
a series of promotional campaigns during the year‑end peak season” around Samsung’s flagship Galaxy devices.
He adds that Samsung’s holiday plans include the “release of smart glasses,” referring to the long-awaited Android XR specs set to debut before the year is out. Samsung, nor Google, have officially confirmed launch plans for this first run.
More exciting, though, are Samsung’s plans for 2027.
Araujo specifically teased the “next-generation S series,” referring to Galaxy S27, which will include “distinct character of each model.” That reads as a subtle hint of Samsung’s plans to add a new “Pro” device as well as make design changes to Galaxy S27 Ultra. Also teased are “groundbreaking form factors” and new foldable designs that “align with consumers’ real-world lifestyles,” presumably referring to rumors of another new Galaxy Z Fold 9 addition.
For the next-generation S series, we will build on an in-depth analysis and understanding of segmented customer needs to further enhance the distinct character of each model. With regard to foldable smartphones, following a timely expansion of our lineup this year, we plan to elevate the user experience across all series by 2027. In addition, we will advance Galaxy AI‑centric features, offering richer, more intuitive AI‑powered experiences that better interpret users’ contexts and intentions….
…We will also continue to explore entirely new experiences, such as Glass, TriFold, and other groundbreaking form factors…
Looking ahead, we will continue to strengthen our leadership in the foldable smartphone segment by developing thinner and lighter foldable devices, designing form factors that better align with consumers’ real‑world lifestyles, and delivering a truly unique customer experience…
