A new render courtesy of OnLeaks offers a closer look at the Galaxy S27 Ultra’s rear camera island, showing a pill-shaped secondary section beside the main camera area that appears to house a telephoto camera, a microphone, additional sensors and an LED flash.

Galaxy S27 Ultra camera layout and components
The latest render depicts a distinct pill-shaped module adjacent to the primary camera cluster. The leaked layout suggests this secondary section contains a telephoto lens plus space for a microphone, extra sensors and an LED flash, though the exact placement of some components is unclear.
The design also indicates room for hardware believed to be related to Laser AutoFocus, and another tipster, Ice Universe, has independently pointed to additional hardware in the same area.
What the cases and CAD renders show
Dozens of third-party cases and CAD renders spotted over the weekend for the Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra align with the purported design language, giving a better look at how Samsung might arrange supporting sensors and other hardware within the rear camera area. The images reinforce that Samsung appears to be keeping a prominent multi-camera setup while integrating supporting components into the camera island.
What remains unclear and next steps
The exact placement of some components in the pill-shaped section remains uncertain, so the leaked designs should not be treated as final. The Galaxy S27 Ultra is still several months away, with Samsung expected to launch the Galaxy S27 series early next year; more accurate case designs and hardware leaks may surface closer to launch, clarifying the final camera arrangement.
