Editorial report

Samsung Galaxy A27 8 GB / 256 GB / International technical sheet

The Samsung Galaxy A27 suits people looking for a large display and broad connectivity, with a slim body among its strengths. Its Super AMOLED display measures 6.7 inches and has a 120 Hz refresh rate; the phone is 7.8 mm thick. Its 200 g weight is another factor to weigh against those priorities.

Connectivity is better than that of most phones from its time: the A27 supports 5G, Wi-Fi 6E, NFC, and eSIM. It can use two Nano-SIM cards or a Nano-SIM and an eSIM. Android 16 and six years of OS updates add long-term software support. This version has 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, expandable with a card.

The 5000 mAh battery and 25 W fast charging are weaker than those of most phones launched around the same time. There is no wireless charging. The 50 MP main camera includes optical image stabilization and records 4K video at 30 fps; an ultrawide and a macro camera are also included. The battery is non-removable.

Overall, the Galaxy A27 is typical of phones from its time, with a NeoScore of 6.8. It is worth considering for people who prioritize the display, connectivity, and software support, while the battery capacity and charging speed are its clearest trade-offs.
