Ice Universe: the Galaxy S27 Ultra will keep the screen design essentially the same

01 October 2026
The screen will use a new panel, but Samsung's attention is on redesigning the back, so the front will look the same.

      You all missed it! The M16 oled panel moves up from 8bit color depth to 10bit. This is a huge change!

              How different can a screen design be? All phones look the same for many years in a row, only the corner roundness can differentiate them and some curved displays here and there...

                  So another typical Samsung moment. So let's just wait for Apple to set up design standards (despite even Apple copying traits from other brands) before we do a copy+past job.

                      TimmyKH, 02 Oct 2026yeah ... the same screen for the next 10 years 🤪It's about design, not type of screen. What the title implys is that the form factor will remain the same for now.
