Samsung has launched its 2025 flagship lineup: the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. The key focus of the event, as well as the main selling point of the devices, is the impressive Galaxy AI features. As an addition, Samsung has upgraded some design elements, and specifications and changed the color options to justify printing the next number on the retail box this year.
I have already discussed the new AI features while talking about the top-of-the-line model, which you can check out here. In this article, I will be focusing on the hardware side of the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Plus.
Design and specifications:
First of all, both the base and plus models look the same as their predecessors. The only noticeable difference is the updated color options: Navy, Mint, Icy Blue, and Silver Shadow.
As for the specs, the Galaxy S25 and S25+ pack 6.2-inch and 6.7″ displays respectively—same as last year. The base model packs an FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, while the Plus model packs a QHD+ one.
Performance is improved thanks to the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. Besides raw CPU and GPU power, the 40% more capable NPU also helps the S25 series perform AI-related tasks faster and better. While the Ultra model packs a larger VC cooling for better sustained performance, Samsung didn’t reveal anything regarding this feature in the other two models.
The imaging system also benefits from the new chip’s improved ISP and Samsung’s image processing improvements. Samsung also talked about their advanced “Object-aware Engine” which can now detect the subject of an image, recognize the lighting of the environment, and modify skin tones to make it look “more natural and true to life.” But it’s also worth noting that there are no changes in the image sensors whatsoever.
The same goes for many other aspects. The Galaxy S25 and S25+ pack 4000mAh and 4900mAh batteries and support 25W and 45W wired charging respectively.
Pricing and availability:
Galaxy S25 packs 12GB RAM and comes in two different storage options and starts from $799 in the US.
The Plus model packs the same RAM but combines it with more storage.
256GB: $999
512GB: $1019
