GSMArena.com and Android Authority both suggested that Samsung might remove one of the rear cameras. Meanwhile, TelecomTalk and GSMArena.com mentioned a 12MP telephoto camera for the Galaxy S27 Pro. However, Android Police and SamMobile noted that the Pro model's zoom capabilities will not match the Ultra's. The Galaxy S27 Ultra's camera design and pricing are the main points of contention.

Notebookcheck.net described the camera designs as "weird" and tipped higher prices. Critics of the render argue that the design is unappealing and impractical. Samsung's decision to potentially remove a camera and change the design could impact photography enthusiasts and professionals who rely on multiple lenses.
