Galaxy S27 Ultra price hike looks unavoidable as component prices continue to spiral

A report says the Galaxy S27 Ultra could cost up to 150,000 won more in South Korea than its predecessor.

The rumored increase is tied to memory shortages, rising NAND storage prices, and higher Qualcomm chip costs.

Samsung is still developing the phone, with leaks pointing to a larger battery and new camera sensors.

If component inflation continues, Samsung may raise prices across more of its smartphone lineup, including the Galaxy Z Flip 8.
