Samsung's Galaxy S27 reveal is months away, and the company just scooped itself anyway. Five fresh wallpapers found buried inside a One UI build line up perfectly with the S27's rumored color lineup — including a brand-new red-burgundy that appears to be taking the Galaxy S26's cobalt violet seat. Courtesy of Samsung itself, per Android Police.
That's the leak: navy, light blue, white, light pink, and burgundy — one abstract twisting-ribbon motif, five shades. Leaker IceUniverse called four of them a month early (he just didn't have burgundy). Dummy units already floating around show the S27 Ultra and Pro getting a wide rectangular camera bar, mirroring the iPhone 18 Pro's layout. And the hype is real: the S27 Ultra sits at #1 on GSMArena's daily-hits chart with 30,567 hits a day. Nothing official yet — launch chatter points to late January or early February 2027. So yes, months more of this. My wallet is already stretching.
Five colorways, one question: why'd Samsung leak these itself?
The new star shade: red-burgundy, found hiding in Samsung's own software. The S26's cobalt violet didn't survive the swap.
The current look, for comparison — until the Ultra and Pro's wide rectangular camera bar shows up, straight out of the iPhone 18 Pro's playbook.
The navy variant — same twisting ribbon, different mood. Five shades total, all "discovered" inside one One UI build.
