The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is an upcoming smartphone that is part of the Galaxy S25 series. It is notable for being the thinnest model in the series, with a thickness of approximately 5.8mm, making it a significant design focus for Samsung[2][4]. Here are some key features and details about the device:
Key Features
- Display: The Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to feature a 6.656-inch display, similar in size to the Galaxy S25 Plus. Rumors suggest it might have a Full HD+ resolution with LTPO technology and a dynamic 120Hz refresh rate, though this is slightly different from the S25 Plus's higher resolution AMOLED panel[3][4].
- Camera: The device will have a dual-camera setup on the rear, with a 200MP primary camera and an ultrawide lens. Unlike some other models in the series, it lacks a telephoto lens[1][4].
- Performance: It is rumored to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, paired with 12GB of RAM. However, benchmark scores suggest it might not match the performance of other models like the S25 Plus due to thermal throttling from its slim design[1][3].
- Battery: The battery capacity is confirmed to be around 3,786 mAh (marketed as 3,900 mAh), which is smaller than other models in the series. This could impact battery life, making it less of a selling point[1][7].
- Charging: The phone supports 25W wired charging[1][2].
- Design and Durability: Despite its slim profile, Samsung assures that the device's durability will not be compromised. It weighs about 162g and features ultra-thin bezels similar to the S25 Ultra[2][4].
- Price: The Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to be priced competitively, starting around KRW 1.5 million (~ $1030) for the 256GB variant and KRW 1.63 million (~ $1120) for the 512GB variant in South Korea. It is positioned to be slightly more expensive than the S25 Plus but cheaper than the S25 Ultra[2][5].
Launch and Availability
The Galaxy S25 Edge is anticipated to launch in April 2025, with Samsung aiming to capitalize on the market for slim smartphones before Apple releases its own slim model, the iPhone 17 Air, later in the year[2][6]. The device is expected to be available in several dozen countries, targeting a broad consumer base[2].
