Samsung has officially teased a new addition to its flagship lineup, the Galaxy S25 Edge, during the recent Galaxy Unpacked event. Previously, it was speculated to be called the Galaxy S25 Slim, but that turned out not to be the case.
The Edge, expected to launch in the first half of this year, reintroduces the “Edge” moniker, recalling the curved display designs that Samsung popularized years ago. However, this time, the focus is not just on aesthetics but also on achieving an exceptionally slim form factor.
The Galaxy S25 Edge, as hinted at during the presentation, appears to be an ultra-thin variant of the standard Galaxy S25 series. Measuring a rumored thickness of just 6.4mm, it challenges the industry norms of smartphone dimensions. Its sleek, minimalist profile is further distinguished by a dual-camera setup on the back, setting it apart from the triple-camera configurations of the S25 and S25+.
Samsung’s strategic placement of the S25 Edge hints at a direct competition with Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 Air, which is also rumored to feature a thinner-than-ever design. The S25 Edge aims to strike a balance between slimness and functionality, potentially positioning itself as a more versatile option for consumers who prioritize design without sacrificing performance.
The Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to be priced below the $1,299 S25 Ultra, positioning it between the S25+ and the Ultra model. According to Mark Gurman, it will launch in the first half of the year, including in the US.
Talking about the S25 series, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra, featuring AI-powered One UI 7, Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, advanced cameras, improved thermal efficiency, and sustainable materials. The S25 Ultra boasts a 200MP camera, 6.9-inch display, and 5000mAh battery, while the S25 and S25+ offer smaller displays and slightly lower specs. All models include enhanced durability, AI tools, and long-term software support.
