What’s so interesting about this phone?
In a massive teaser, Samsung confirmed that a fourth Galaxy S flagship model is on its way. It’s called the Galaxy S25 Edge. What should we know about this phone? Even though Samsung has teased it for the Unpacked launch event in San Jose, the phone’s technical details haven’t been confirmed yet.
A brand new entry into the Galaxy S series, you can bet that there are a lot of rumors and gossip about it. In this article, we will give you a full recap of the latest device:
It’s Slim Profile
The most unique feature of this phone is its slim profile, which is why industry watchers used to refer to it as the “Galaxy S25 Slim” before the San Jose Unpacked event. Nobody knows how precisely thin it will be once this device is on sale. According to Samsung, the design that was demonstrated during the Unpacked event is bound to change. The demo unit is quite skinny.
The phone will have a 6.4mm profile, but this is still yet to be confirmed. If Samsung has any intentions to break records, it will create a thinner device than 6.4mm.
Specs Wise
The Galaxy S25 Edge should share some DNA with the rest of the series. Instead of the full-fledged 8-core Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, the Galaxy S25 Edge could feature the 7-core version of the same SoCs. Other specs may include:
- 128GB/512GB of storage and 8 GB of RAM
- Potentially, there is a 512GB+12GB variant in the works.
- A 3,900-4,000mAh battery
- A 6.7-inch AMOLED Infinity-O display, possibly with a resolution of around 1080×2400. Brightness and refresh rate details are unknown.
- One UI 7 with the latest Galaxy AI features.
- Support for seven yearly OS upgrades
One other unusual Galaxy S25 Edge characteristic is the rumored camera configuration. Initial rumors said the phone would be equipped with a 200MP main camera and 50 MP ultra-wide shooter.
The demo unit showcase during the launch event had two cameras, which can be turned off for camera enthusiasts, but we will see how it all turns out.
The device will likely have a 12-MP front-facing selfie shooter.
Get Ready For Its Global Release!
It’s unclear if the Galaxy S25 Edge will enjoy a global release, but rumors may say again that it may go on sale in April. Pricing details are al so unknown but people expect the phone to be positioned between the Galaxy S25+ and the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
All in one, the Galaxy S25 Edge will be a reinterpretation of the Samsung premium phone formula — the one we haven’t had before. It’s something brand new and it kind of shows that Samsung is still willing to step outside its comfort zone. Whether or not the phone and Samsung’s efforts will be worth it remains to be determined.
