The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to feature a 120Hz refresh rate display, which typically consumes more power compared to lower refresh rates like 60Hz. This higher refresh rate can significantly impact battery life, as seen in previous Samsung models like the S20 series, where switching to 120Hz resulted in a notable decrease in battery endurance[2]. For the S25 Edge, the battery capacity is confirmed to be 3,786 mAh (marketed as 3,900 mAh), which is smaller than the standard Galaxy S25's 4,000 mAh battery[1][4]. This smaller capacity, combined with the power-intensive 120Hz display, suggests that the S25 Edge might not offer the longest battery life among flagship phones.
In comparison, the Galaxy S25 Plus has a larger 4,900 mAh battery and supports faster 45W wired charging, which likely provides better battery life and quicker recharging[9]. Other flagship phones, such as the Pixel 9 and iPhone 16 Pro, also offer competitive battery life, with the Pixel 9 providing around eight hours of screen time, which is more than the S25[6]. The iPhone 15 Pro Max, when set to 60Hz, shows improved battery efficiency compared to some Samsung models at higher refresh rates[5].
Overall, while the Galaxy S25 Edge offers strong performance and a slim design, its battery life may be compromised due to the smaller battery size and the power demands of the 120Hz display. This could make it less appealing to users who prioritize long battery life over other features.
