The tipster alleges that this new storage standard may only affect &#8220;some&#8221; S27 models next year.

Rumors claim that the company is considering &#8220;price, mass production costs and more&#8221; when it comes to its decision to only implement UFS 5.0 on &#8220;a few&#8221; phones. It is still not clear on which phones it can be seen. If we had to guess, at least the Galaxy S27 Ultra could have the advantage.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"article-continues-below block py-2 text-sm\">Article continues below <default:svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"inline-block w-2.5 h-2.5 ml-2\" fill=\"currentColor\" preserveaspectratio=\"xMidYMid meet\" viewbox=\"0 0 1000 1000\"><default:path d=\"M1000 100L500 900 0 100h1000z\"\/><\/default:svg><\/span><\/p>\n<aside data-component-name=\"Recirculation:ArticleRiver\" data-recirculation-type=\"inline\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"Trending Bar\" data-nosnippet=\"\" class=\"clear-both pb-0 pt-2 mb-4\">\n        <span class=\"&#10;            flex&#10;            after:content-('') after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-(0.7rem) after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-(#ccc)&#10;            before:content-('') before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-(0.7rem) before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-(#ccc)&#10;            font-article-heading pb-0 !text-base uppercase sm:text-sm font-bold&#10;        \"><\/p>\n<p>            you may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/ufs_50_announced_with_double_the_performance_over_the_previous_generation-news-69827.php\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.gsmarena.com\/ufs_50_announced_with_double_the_performance_over_the_previous_generation-news-69827.php\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\">publication<\/a> refer to <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jedec.org\/news\/pressreleases\/ufs-50-coming-jedec%C2%AE-sets-stage-next-leap-flash-storage\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.jedec.org\/news\/pressreleases\/ufs-50-coming-jedec%C2%AE-sets-stage-next-leap-flash-storage\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\">zedek<\/a> And its coverage of the UFS 5.0 storage standard. UFS 5.0, revealed in October, is said to increase the device&#8217;s sequential performance to 10.8 GB per second. It takes into account inline hashing as well as AI for better security. To put it simply, UFS 5.0 increases the device&#8217;s ability to transfer data and files, while also improving the way apps load.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"the-rumors-so-far-3\">Rumors so far<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check=\"\" id=\"elk-c9692048-80d0-4e30-ab9f-0038e32e3d85\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\" style=\"max-width:2048px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.35%;\"> <picture data-new-v2-image=\"true\"><source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/YEPnpMWbsBwfNbbUzGaFdL-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/YEPnpMWbsBwfNbbUzGaFdL-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/YEPnpMWbsBwfNbbUzGaFdL-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/YEPnpMWbsBwfNbbUzGaFdL-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/YEPnpMWbsBwfNbbUzGaFdL-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/YEPnpMWbsBwfNbbUzGaFdL-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw - 40px)\"\/><\/picture><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Nicholas Sutrich\/Android Central)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p id=\"elk-f42f9f32-71e2-405e-9bca-8fc622e703b3\"> <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/phones\/samsung-galaxy\/i-used-the-galaxy-s26-ultra-for-three-weeks-here-are-six-things-i-learned\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/phones\/samsung-galaxy\/i-used-the-galaxy-s26-ultra-for-three-weeks-here-are-six-things-i-learned\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/phones\/samsung-galaxy\/i-used-the-galaxy-s26-ultra-for-three-weeks-here-are-six-things-i-learned\">The Galaxy S26 Ultra uses UFS 4.0 storage, which offers about half the data speeds of UFS 5.0. Samsung&#8217;s next Ultra model has been in the news recently, with rumors suggesting it may feature &#8220;new technology&#8221; for its cameras. Early rumors claimed that Samsung could equip the phone with an ISOCELL HP6 sensor, but the same reports leave aside any hope of a megapixel upgrade. It looks like the S27 Ultra will still stick with 200MP for its main lens.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, we had the S Pen rumored for the Ultra and, no, upgrades aren&#8217;t in the cards either. Samsung was reportedly deep into development, trying to figure out a way to combine the two useful stylus methods. When things didn&#8217;t go as expected, she reportedly canceled her plans. We&#8217;ll leave you with an interesting rumor that says Samsung could launch a Galaxy S27 Pro with &#8220;Ultra-like features&#8221; in a more compact design next year.<\/p>\n<hr id=\"elk-e1796e78-2ced-4122-a06e-eee39a6ffd9f\"\/>\n<h2 id=\"android-central-s-take-3\">Android Central&#8217;s Tech<\/h2>\n<p id=\"elk-a3110726-0ed6-4f2f-93ee-db9df4c7cb26\">It&#8217;s always a good thing to have good storage. Tech lovers will know how important storage is, be it for its read\/write capabilities or how much stuff it can hold. If we&#8217;re going down this &#8220;selective&#8221; route where Samsung might implement it, I think the S27 Ultra is our best option. Maybe we&#8217;ll see it transferred to another one, but I think Ultra will get it. Also, let&#8217;s not forget about Samsung&#8217;s recent <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/phones\/samsung-galaxy\/samsungs-horrendous-galaxy-price-hike-in-the-us-makes-me-worried-and-you-should-be-too\" data-url=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/phones\/samsung-galaxy\/samsungs-horrendous-galaxy-price-hike-in-the-us-makes-me-worried-and-you-should-be-too\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.androidcentral.com\/phones\/samsung-galaxy\/samsungs-horrendous-galaxy-price-hike-in-the-us-makes-me-worried-and-you-should-be-too\">The price is on the rise, so we should be careful before getting too excited about the potential of UFS 5.0.<\/p>\n<div id=\"slice-container-newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-XjAJTwLib38dGfbMUEwCnD\" class=\"slice-container newsletter-inbodyContent-slice newsletterForm-articleInbodyContent-XjAJTwLib38dGfbMUEwCnD slice-container-newsletterForm\">\n<div data-hydrate=\"true\" class=\"newsletter-form__wrapper newsletter-form__wrapper--inbodyContent\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form__container\">\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__top-bar\"\/>\n<section class=\"newsletter-form__main-section\">\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Get the latest news from Android Central, your trusted partner in the world of Android<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What you need to know Another early Galaxy S27 rumor claims Samsung may upgrade its storage to UFS 5.0, but this may only affect &#8220;some&#8221; models.
