The Samsung Galaxy S25 line represents Samsung Electronics' premium range of Android smartphones within its flagship Galaxy S series.[1][2][3] This series succeeds the previous Galaxy S24 generation.

The initial trio—comprising the S25, S25+, and the flagship S25 Ultra—was unveiled on January22,2025 during the Galaxy Unpacked event held in San Jose, California, followed by their market release on February7.[4]

Production for the Galaxy S25 Ultra extends beyond Vietnam and India to include Egypt where it was officially manufactured and distributed through authorized channels locally.[5] This initiative also marks the first phase in exporting this model to countries in the Gulf region as well as North Africa.

Later in the year on May13 at another Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung introduced an additional variant—the Galaxy S25 Edge—which officially launched on May30.[6][7] Measuring just5.8 millimeters thick, the Edge model stands as the slimmest device ever released within the Galaxy S family—surpassing even earlier slim devices like Samsung’s2015 Galaxy A8 and the2007 U100 model.[8][9]

Lineup

The Galaxy S25 series is composed of four distinct variants: the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, Galaxy S25 Ultra, and the Galaxy S25 Edge, which stands out as Samsung's slimmest smartphone since the Galaxy A8 (2015).

The base Galaxy S25 offers a compact design paired with a flat 6.2 in (160 mm) screen. In contrast, the Galaxy S25+ shares much of the same internal specifications but features a larger 6.7 in (170 mm) display. The Galaxy S25 Ultra boasts a 6.9 in (180 mm) display, an expanded chassis compared to its predecessor, and rounded edges that better reflect the aesthetic of the Galaxy S series.[3] Meanwhile, the newly introduced Galaxy S25 Edge sports a 6.7-inch (17 cm) screen and is distinguished by its ultra-thin profile measuring just 5.85 mm (0.230 in) in thickness.[10][11][12]

While the dimensions of the S25 and S25+ remain largely consistent with those of the previous S24 models, the S25 Ultra incorporates subtle tweaks to its design, and the S25 Edge sets itself apart with a notably slimmer body.[3]

All four models are equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. Unlike earlier Galaxy S releases where chipset selections varied depending on region, this generation employs the Snapdragon 8 Elite universally across all markets.[13][14][15][16][17] Additionally, the Galaxy S25 lineup supports consistent eSIM capabilities within each region. International versions offer dual Nano-SIM slots alongside dual eSIM profiles, U.S. models come with a single Nano-SIM slot plus dual eSIM support, whereas Chinese editions continue to use dual Nano-SIM slots without eSIM functionality.[18]

Galaxy S25 Edge model

The Galaxy S25 and S25+ models maintain an aluminum frame paired with a glass rear panel, continuing the aesthetic approach of their forerunners. Both devices incorporate Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the front screen as well as on the back glass surface.[19]

These phones are offered in four primary hues: Icy Blue, Mint, Navy, and Silver Shadow. Additionally, Samsung’s online store provides three exclusive shades: Pink Gold, Coral Red, and Blue Black.[20][21]

Constructed with a titanium chassis and glass back, the S25 Ultra resembles the previous S24 Ultra but introduces rounded edges instead of the earlier model’s square corners. For enhanced toughness and glare reduction, it employs Gorilla Glass Armor 2 on both the front display and rear panel.

The Ultra variant is available in four standard titanium finishes: Titanium Silver Blue, Titanium Black, Titanium White Silver, and Titanium Grey. Moreover, three additional colors—Titanium Jade Green, Titanium Jet Black, and Titanium Pink Gold—can be purchased exclusively through Samsung’s online platform.[22]

The Galaxy S25 Edge sports a titanium frame combined with a flat screen design similar to that of the S25 and S25+, but it is notably slimmer. Its front is protected by Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2, which offers superior scratch resistance and lowers reflectivity. This model is offered in three colors: Titanium Icy Blue, Titanium Silver, and Titanium Jet Black.[23][7][24]

Display

The Galaxy S25 lineup is equipped with a "Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X" screen that supports HDR10+, offering a refresh rate of up to 120 Hz and a peak brightness reaching 2600 nits. The S25 and S25+ models are safeguarded by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on their displays, while the S25 Ultra utilizes Corning Gorilla Glass Armor 2 for enhanced screen protection. Each device in the series incorporates an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint sensor. The S25 Edge also boasts a "Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X" panel with HDR10+ capability and a 120 Hz refresh rate, matching the maximum brightness of 2600 nits seen in the base and Plus models. Like these, it employs Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for its screen defense.

The S25 and S25+ are outfitted with a triple-camera setup consisting of a 50 MP main wide sensor, a 10 MP telephoto lens offering 3x optical zoom, and a 12 MP ultrawide sensor.

Conversely, the S25 Ultra features an advanced camera array including a 200 MP primary wide sensor, a 50 MP periscope telephoto lens capable of 5x optical zoom, an additional 10 MP telephoto lens with 3x zoom, a 50 MP ultrawide sensor, plus laser-assisted autofocus technology.

The S25 Edge comes with a dual-camera system comprising a 200 MP wide sensor alongside a 12 MP ultrawide lens but lacks any telephoto capability.

All variants are equipped with a front-facing camera featuring a 12 MP sensor.

Batteries

The battery capacities of the Galaxy S25 series remain largely consistent with those found in the previous S24 lineup, except for the S25 Edge. This particular model features a reduced thickness, resulting in a smaller battery compared to the S25+, despite having almost identical dimensions in height and width. Wired charging capabilities differ across models: the S25 and S25 Edge support up to 25 W, whereas the S25+ and S25 Ultra allow faster charging at 45 W. All four devices are equipped with Qi2 wireless charging at a maximum of 15 W and can also wirelessly charge other Qi-compatible gadgets using their own battery power.

To enable Qi2 wireless charging at 15 W, every Galaxy S25 variant requires a specially designed magnetic case.

Memory and storage

All Galaxy S25 models launched with a baseline of 12 GB RAM, differing from earlier generations. The entry-level Galaxy S25 begins with 128 GB of internal storage, while the other three models start at 256 GB. The S25 Edge is equipped exclusively with 12 GB of RAM and does not offer options for memory upgrades.

In select markets such as South Korea and Greater China (including Mainland China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan), certain Galaxy S25 Ultra variants provide an option for 16 GB of RAM. Specifically, in South Korea, Titanium Jetblack models featuring 1 TB of storage come with 16 GB RAM. Similarly, in Greater China, all color variants with 1 TB storage include 16 GB RAM.

Software

File:Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra 2025 (1).jpg
One UI 7 on the S25 Ultra

The Galaxy S25 series debuted running Android 15 paired with One UI 7. Samsung has committed to providing seven years of both operating system and security updates for these models, potentially extending support until 2032.[25]

Additionally, the devices come equipped with Galaxy AI, Samsung's proprietary artificial intelligence platform, which has been enhanced with new functionalities in the S25 generation.[26]

S Pen controversy

With the introduction of the S25 Ultra, Samsung decided to eliminate the Bluetooth capabilities from its signature S Pen, a feature that was initially introduced with the Galaxy Note 9 back in 2018. This change was reportedly driven by cost reduction efforts, as Samsung indicated that fewer than 1% of Galaxy users utilized the Bluetooth functions.[27]

The removal of Bluetooth has resulted in losing features such as remote camera operation, air gestures, and various app-specific functionalities within applications like PowerPoint and the default Gallery app.[28]
