On October 29, 2026, Samsung introduced the Galaxy W27 in China, the latest entry in its W series, designed as a luxury version of its flagship foldable. The design opts for a two-tone finish, red and blue, with gold details on the frame, hinge, camera module, and lens rings, plus the "Heart to the World" logo.
In hardware it keeps the base of the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra and adds satellite connectivity. It has a 6.5-inch outer display and an 8.0-inch inner display, the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor, a 5,000 mAh battery, and a triple rear camera led by a 200-megapixel main sensor, running Android 17 and One UI 9.
It sells in China in 16 GB with 512 GB configurations for 18,999 yuan and 16 GB with 1 TB for 21,999 yuan, and includes a collectors edition box with a 45 W charger and a Kevlar case. It is, therefore, a premium niche product exclusive to that market, rather than a global launch.
