Every major smartphone brand seems to be chasing thinness again. After years of packing phones with giant batteries and bigger camera bumps, 2025 has brought a new wave of slim devices.

Huawei’s entry into this space, the Mate 70 Air, is perhaps the most interesting of all. The company didn’t pursue extreme thinness at the expense of key features. Instead, it chose to make the device slim—yes—but still retain the essentials you’d expect from a premium 2025 phone.

Apple and Samsung, however, seem to be taking the opposite approach. There are noticeable compromises made in pursuit of slimmer designs. Here’s how the three phones compare, and how the Huawei Mate 70 Air differs from the iPhone Air and Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge.

Size and design

The Mate 70 Air is noticeably larger than both of its rivals. It measures 165 × 81.5 × 6.6 mm and weighs 208 g. While Huawei is chasing the ultra-light smartphone trend, it’s also being thoughtful about the features we’d expect from a 2025 phone. More on that later.

The iPhone Air leans the opposite way. It’s all about being thin. At just 5.6 mm thick and 165 g, it’s the slimmest and lightest of the three. 

The Galaxy S25 Edge sits in the middle. It measures 158.2 x 75.6 x 5.8 mm and weighs 163 g. It’s almost as thin as the iPhone Air but packs a slightly larger footprint. 

All three phones are well built. Huawei doesn’t mention exotic materials but does bring IP68/IP69 durability, which allows survival against high-pressure water streams. Apple also offers IP68, though with deeper submersion ratings (up to 6 m). Samsung matches Huawei with IP68, but only up to 1.5 m. Huawei is the most rugged on paper.

Displays

The differences continue in the screen department.

Huawei makes the Mate 70 Air feel almost tablet-adjacent with a 7.0-inch LTPO OLED panel. It refreshes at 120Hz, peaks at 4000 nits, and is protected by Kunlun Glass. 

Apple keeps it calmer with a 6.5-inch LTPO Super Retina XDR OLED display. It’s sharp at 1260 × 2736, and it offers features like HDR10, Dolby Vision, and a 120Hz refresh rate. Peak brightness reaches 3000 nits, making it excellent outdoors, though it dims slightly versus Huawei in numbers.

Samsung pushes clarity harder. The Galaxy S25 Edge screen is 6.7 inches, running at 1440 × 3120 for the highest pixel density of the three. It’s also LTPO and 120Hz with HDR10+ support.

All are great screens, but Huawei’s size stands out the most.

Software and ecosystem

The Mate 70 Air runs HarmonyOS 5.1. That’s an entirely different world from iOS and Android. It offers a familiar layout, but app availability and restrictions vary depending on your region. The phone also has satellite messaging support. 

The iPhone Air doesn’t surprise. It ships with iOS 26, and Apple promises long-term support, clean UI, and tight hardware-software integration. It works seamlessly with other Apple products.

Samsung goes with Android 15, One UI 7, and promises 7 major OS upgrades. That’s longer than most Android phones typically receive and helps it match Apple’s longevity promise.

If you’re already inside a particular ecosystem, none of these phones gives you a reason to switch. Huawei’s software feels the most different; Apple’s is the most familiar; Samsung’s is the most flexible.

Performance

This is where the biggest differences emerge.

Huawei uses its 7nm Kirin 9020 chips (9020A or 9020B). Performance should be fine for everyday tasks, but they can’t match the raw compute power of Apple’s 3nm A19 Pro or Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite in Samsung’s phone.

Apple’s A19 Pro sits near the top of mobile performance, especially in power efficiency. Samsung’s Snapdragon 8 Elite pushes high clock speeds and serious GPU strength, especially for gaming and editing.

So if you care about graphics or future-proof performance:
• Apple and Samsung are the clear leaders
• Huawei focuses more on efficiency and battery life

All three months offer similar memory configurations.

Cameras

Camera hardware is another area where these phones diverge.

Huawei puts three lenses on the back:
• 50MP main with OIS
• 12MP telephoto with 3× zoom
• 8MP ultrawide

It’s a balanced setup, with dedicated optical zoom and laser autofocus. It also supports 4K video and HDR.

The iPhone Air sticks to a single 48MP main camera. Apple is banking on computational photography, not lens count. It will likely deliver good consistency, but there’s no dedicated telephoto lens here, so lossless zoom is limited.

Samsung offers a dual-camera setup:
• 200MP main
• 12MP ultrawide

The 200MP camera is the number that sells headlines, but the lack of a telephoto lens stands out. Samsung supports 4K and even 8K recording, which Huawei and Apple don’t match at the same frame rate.

It’s without a doubt that Huawei has better cameras overall with a dedicated lens for ultrawide and telephoto. This is where the company’s decision to avoid aggressively chasing the ultra-slim trend becomes clear. You’re getting an almost flagship-level camera setup.

Selfies

Moreover, Huawei’s selfie camera is a modest 10.7MP unit with 4K support.

Apple goes bigger with 18MP plus a 3D depth system (SL 3D), which makes Face ID possible and can improve portrait accuracy. It also records Dolby Vision HDR.

Samsung stays simple at 12MP, but with PDAF for sharper focusing.

Battery and charging

This is one category that Huawei dominates. Because of its bigger size, the Mate 70 Air has a massive 6500mAh battery. Charging goes up to 66W wired.

Comparatively:
• iPhone Air: 3149mAh, wired fast charge and MagSafe
• Samsung S25 Edge: 3900mAh, 25W wired

This might be the biggest practical difference. Huawei claims all-day endurance, while Apple and Samsung feel almost midrange on battery capacity, though software optimization may help them compete.

But if you want raw capacity, there’s no competition.

Extras

Two small notes:

• Huawei supports a stylus, something neither competitor offers here.
• Samsung includes DeX desktop mode, which lets you use the phone like a computer.
• Apple has satellite emergency features globally; Huawei’s satellite messaging is China-only.

These might not sway buyers, but they define the phones’ different priorities.

Final thoughts

The Huawei Mate 70 Air, iPhone Air, and Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge sit in a similar price tier, but they don’t do the same job. 

Huawei prioritizes big screens, long battery life, and triple cameras. Apple keeps things minimal, polished, and thin, leaning on software and ecosystem comfort. Samsung takes the middle road with a sharp display, high performance, and future-proof Android support.

So if you’re trying to choose between size, battery, and a versatile camera in a slim form, go with Huawei. The iPhone Air is best for you if you’re already in the Apple ecosystem and need an absolutely slim smartphone. 

Samsung is the most versatile of the three with Android baked in, flagship performance, and dual cameras.

The post The Best Thin Smartphones of 2025 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Smartphones in 2025 are no longer just about speed, battery life, or camera prowess; they’re about feel. And weight is quietly becoming a spec that matters again. As phone screens grow larger and batteries swell past the 5000mAh mark, some manufacturers are pushing back against the gravity of modern slabs with smarter design, lighter materials, and tighter engineering. The result: a new wave of devices that somehow manage to pack flagship power or serious utility into bodies that weigh less than ever.

Here are seven of the lightest smartphones launched in 2025, across flagship, midrange, foldable, and even budget segments, that prove you don’t need to feel the heft to get high-end function.

Samsung Galaxy S25 (162g)

Samsung kicked off the year strong with the Galaxy S25, a phone that returns to basics in the best possible way. At just 162 grams, it’s one of the lightest premium smartphones in recent memory, all without cutting the muscle. It runs on the 3nm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, co-engineered with Qualcomm, paired with a 4000mAh battery and a triple-camera system that includes a 50MP main sensor.

It’s rare for a flagship with a glass-and-metal build to drop below 170g, but Samsung managed to shave off weight from last year’s S24 (~167g) by refining materials and internal layouts. The 6.2-inch AMOLED screen, IP68 rating, and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 finish make it feel anything but stripped down. The Galaxy S25 is a reminder that premium doesn’t have to be heavy.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge (163g)

If the S25 is compact elegance, the S25 Edge is its futuristic twin, sleek, long, and impressively thin. At just 5.8mm thick and 163 grams, this 6.7-inch phone is lighter than many smaller devices. Samsung gave it the same Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB of RAM, but it sacrifices the telephoto lens and drops the battery slightly to 3900mAh to maintain that razor-thin profile.

It’s less about being the most powerful device on paper and more about showing what’s possible when you prioritize design. Samsung calls it the lightest “phablet-class” flagship of 2025, and it holds up in hand: light, sturdy, and surprisingly ergonomic for its size.

Xiaomi 15 (189–191g)

At first glance, Xiaomi’s latest flagship might seem like a typical premium phone. But at under 191 grams with a 5240mAh battery, the Xiaomi 15 is anything but average. It achieves the rare feat of combining longevity and lightness in a compact chassis. The 6.36-inch AMOLED display, 120Hz refresh rate, Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, and Leica-tuned triple 50MP camera system round out the package.

With 90W wired charging and a slim 8.1mm profile, Xiaomi shows how to maximize without overstuffing. In a market where most flagships with 5000mAh+ batteries weigh well over 210g, the Xiaomi 15 stands out as a clever exercise in balancing form and function.

Google Pixel 9a (186g)

Google’s Pixel 9a hits that sweet spot of size, weight, and simplicity. At 185.9g, it’s the lightest phone in Google’s 2025 lineup, even lighter than the flagship Pixel 9. You still get a 6.3-inch OLED screen, the latest Tensor G4 chip, and a generous 5100mAh battery.

The design is clean and practical, with a plastic-aluminum frame that keeps weight down without feeling cheap. It includes wireless charging, IP67 water resistance, and a dual-camera setup (48MP main + 13MP ultrawide). While it’s not featherlight by absolute standards, for a midrange 5G phone with real stamina, the Pixel 9a feels refreshingly light in the hand.

Vivo V50 (189g)

Vivo has quietly built a reputation for making well-balanced midrange phones, and the V50 continues that streak. With a 6.7-inch AMOLED screen and a 5000mAh battery, it should feel hefty, but it doesn’t. At 189 grams, the Satin Black edition of the V50 feels unexpectedly light, especially compared to similar phones that tip the scale past 200g.

It’s powered by a Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chip with up to 12GB RAM, supports 90W fast charging, and includes dual 50MP cameras. Its 7.4mm thin body makes it easier to grip and pocket, while the polished design keeps it stylish. Vivo didn’t compromise on screen size or endurance, it simply engineered smarter.

Motorola Razr Ultra 2025 (199g)

Foldables are notorious for bulk, but Motorola’s 2025 Razr Ultra proves they don’t have to be. Despite a 7-inch inner screen, 4-inch outer display, and a huge 4700mAh battery, the Razr Ultra weighs just 199 grams. That’s practically unheard of in the foldable space.

The Snapdragon 8 Elite and 16GB of RAM make it a powerhouse, but it’s the titanium hinge and efficient component layout that really deserve credit. For comparison, Samsung’s Z Flip 6 (2024) comes in at around 188g with a far smaller battery. Motorola traded a few extra grams for all-day battery life, and it’s a fair deal.

Tecno Spark Slim (166g)

Tecno shocked the tech world at MWC 2025 with the Spark Slim, a concept phone that feels like it belongs in a sci-fi flick. Measuring just 5.75mm thick and weighing 166 grams, it’s the thinnest phone ever revealed, yet it houses a 5200mAh battery. Yes, really.

This phone is more proof-of-concept than daily driver, with modest specs and limited availability, but it makes a point: thin and light is possible, even in the budget segment. Whether or not the Spark Slim makes it to mass market, it sets a new benchmark.

The post The Top 7 Lightest Smartphones of 2025 appeared first on Gizmochina.

Samsung recently unveiled the Galaxy S25 Edge as its thinnest Galaxy S series phone yet. According to insights from its Mobile eXperience design team, the new S25 Edge has been shaped with a sharp focus on precision, slimness, and ease of use — all while staying consistent with the premium identity of the Galaxy S25 lineup.

A slim design that rethinks smartphone aesthetics

According Jiyoung Lee, who leads the product design at Samsung,“This model represents the most essential form of a smartphone by removing all unnecessary elements.”

Measuring just 5.8mm in thickness, the Galaxy S25 Edge aims to strike a balance between sleek visuals and everyday comfort. According to Samsung, the S25 Edge features premium titanium for the side frame — a metal that’s both strong and lightweight — to add a refined edge without making the device feel fragile. The South Korean tech giant has gone for a “one-mass” body design that visually blends the back and frame, with minimal bezels enhancing the screen-to-body ratio.

In India, the phone comes in two shades, Silver and Jetblack, both of which align with the Galaxy S25 series’ new color direction based on the theme of light. “In designing the Galaxy S25 Edge, we considered color depth and saturation, material integration, user preferences and manufacturing processes,” said Hyoungshin Park, who led the CMF design. “This allowed us to express the symbolism and refined identity of the Galaxy S25 Edge while maintaining consistency with the Galaxy S25 series’ overall CMF direction.”

Despite the compact profile, it houses a 200-megapixel camera in a design that minimizes protrusion by matching the rear glass finish with the camera bump. Internally, teams worked across departments to make sure color depth, material textures, and finish levels met the standards set by the series.

The Galaxy S25 Edge is designed not just to look premium, but to feel comfortable and capable — a fresh take on high-end smartphones that don’t compromise on design or functionality. The S25 Edge has a starting price of Rs 1,09,999 and is now up for pre-orders. The phone will be available for purchase starting May 27 through Samsung India as well as online and offline platforms.

The phone’s display is expected to reach up to 2,600 nits brightness and support Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection. Under the hood, it uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor, fabricated on a 3nm process and capable of reaching 4.47GHz speeds. It’s also expected to include a wide vapor chamber for thermal management.

Storage options will reportedly top out at 512GB, with no 1TB model planned. Wireless charging may be excluded, and battery capacity is smaller than other S25 models, potentially affecting endurance. The Edge will support seven years of software updates and include standard connectivity options such as Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, USB-C 3.2, and IP-rated durability. Sales are expected to begin May 30 in the US, with limited production of 40,000 units.

The post Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge to be unveiled on May 13, claims new report appeared first on Gizmochina.

Several reports have claimed that Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S25 Edge in April. To recall, the device was first teased at the Galaxy S25 series launch event in January. While it was showcased at the MWC 2025 tech exhibition at the beginning of this month, the South Korean tech giant hasn’t revealed any details about it yet. Ahead of the expected April launch, Winfuture.de has published a report revealing official renders of the device.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge colour options

The images show that the Galaxy S25 Edge will be available in three shades: Titanium Jet Black, Titanium Icy Blue, and Titanium Silver. In addition to sharing the images, the publication reiterated the device’s rumoured specs.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge specifications (rumoured)

According to reports, the Galaxy S25 Edge will feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display that supports an FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Like the other S25 models, the Edge variant will have the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip onboard.

One of the major highlights of the S25 Edge is its slim design, which is said to be around 5.8mm in thickness, excluding the camera module. It is said that the device will house a 3,900mAh battery that supports 25W wired and wireless charging.

On the front, the Galaxy S25 Edge may feature a 12-megapixel selfie camera. The vertical camera module on the back will have a 200-megapixel primary camera with OIS support and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens. The device is expected to ship with One UI 7-based Android 15 preinstalled.

Last year, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold SE without any fanfare. It is speculated that, in the same way, the S25 Edge will debut quietly without a major launch event. A recent report claimed that the S25 Edge’s 256GB and 512GB variants may carry a starting price of 1,200 euros to 1,300 euros.

The post Here’s when Galaxy S25 Edge may go on sale, color options leaked appeared first on Gizmochina.

A leaked video has given the first real look at Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge, which was showcased at the Galaxy S25 series launch event held last month. The hands-on footage, originally posted by YouTuber Alexis Garza, compared the device to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and revealed its slim profile. The video, which has since been taken down, highlighted its ultra-thin design and key hardware details.

A closer look at the Galaxy S25 Edge

The Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to be one of Samsung’s thinnest phones, reportedly measuring just 5.48mm in thickness. In the video, it was placed next to the unfolded Galaxy Z Fold 6, which is 5.6mm thick in its unfolded state. A recent report revealed that the device will come with a ceramic back, giving it a premium feel. The design of the S25 Edge’s camera module looks like a smaller version of the camera island available on the Z Fold 6.

The S25 Edge’s design comes with trade-offs, as the phone houses a relatively small 4,000mAh battery. According to rumours, the device will feature a 6.7-inch screen. In comparison, despite featuring a smaller 6.2-inch screen, the Galaxy S25 packs the same battery capacity as the S25 Edge.

Despite its slim build, the S25 Edge doesn’t compromise on performance. The AIDA app shown in the video reveals that the device runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite (for Galaxy) chipset, coupled with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. Camera details remain uncertain, as the AIDA64 app displayed three 12-megapixel sensors, though reports suggest a 200-megapixel + 12-megapixel dual-camera setup. The app also reveals support for Bluetooth 5.4 connectivity.

Samsung has yet to announce an official launch date, but rumors suggest the Galaxy S25 Edge could debut at MWC 2025 in early March. However, other reports have claimed that it will be unveiled in May.

The post Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge hands-on video leaked, gives first look at the real device appeared first on Gizmochina.

Last month, Samsung launched the Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra in multiple global markets. At the event, the South Korean tech giant also teased the arrival of a new phone called the Galaxy S25 Edge, which will be announced at a later date. The device has the SM-S937 model number, and its country variant heading to the US has the SM-S937U model number, whereas its Chinese edition has the SM-S9370 model number. Now, the European edition of the device with the SM-S937B model number has emerged on Geekbench, reiterating some of the specs that are already known.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Geekbench listing

The Geekbench listing of the SM-S937B reveals that it is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy. Although the chip’s name is not explicitly mentioned, it is evident through the CPU and GPU (via. source code) details available in the listing.

Therefore, it appears that apart from the US, the European audience will also be treated with the Snapdragon variant of the S25 Edge. Like the other S25 phones, there may not be any Exynos version of the device.

The Galaxy S25 Edge’s European version has 12 GB of RAM and runs on Android 15. It has scored 2806 points in the single-core test and 8416 points in the multi-core test.

As per recent reports, the Galaxy S25 Edge will be an ultra-thin phone measuring only 5.84mm in thickness. The device is likely to feature a 6.7-inch S-AMOLED LTPO screen that offers a 120Hz refresh rate and up to 2,600 nits of brightness. It is expected to pack a 3,900mAh battery with 25W wired and wireless charging support.

The S25 Edge is expected to run on One UI 7-based Android 15. It may ship with 12 GB of RAM and 512 GB of built-in storage. The rear-facing camera system may include a 200-megapixel Samsung HP2 primary sensor and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide snapper. As far as launch is concerned, the S25 Edge is expected to break cover in April or May 2025.

The post Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge’s European variant appears on Geekbench well before launch appeared first on Gizmochina.

Before the Samsung Galaxy S25 launch event, SmartPrix and OnLeaks shared CAD renders of the rumoured S25 Slim. However, when Samsung teased the device at Unpacked, it became clear that the renders were inaccurate, and even the “Slim” moniker was incorrect—though Samsung had never officially confirmed the name. Now, SmartPrix, in collaboration with OnLeaks, has published a follow-up post explaining what went wrong with the early renders and providing new insights into the Galaxy S25 Edge.

What went wrong with the early leaks?

According to the new report, Samsung had two prototypes of the Galaxy S25 Edge in testing. The leaked renders were based on an early prototype that featured three cameras and a slightly thicker design. However, Samsung ultimately chose a different version—the slimmer prototype B—with only two cameras and a more compact form factor. This decision made the previous renders inaccurate, as the final design differs in both thickness and camera setup.

Galaxy S25 Edge leak: Thinner design, 200MP dual cameras

Previously, the publication claimed that the S25 Slim will measure 159 x 76 x 6.4mm. However, the new report states that the Galaxy S25 Edge will measure 158.2 x 75.5 x 5.84 mm, making it one of the slimmest flagship smartphones ever.

The publication added that thinner phones come with trade-offs, and the S25 Edge’s slim body results in a significant camera bump, bringing the total thickness to 10mm. To counter this, Samsung has used a clever design trick—the elongated camera module creates a visual illusion, making the bump appear less pronounced and blending it seamlessly with the frame.

Reliable tipster Ice Universe has stated that he is yet to confirm these exact dimensions but claims that the phone is indeed backed by a 3,900mAh battery. He also added that the camera setup includes a 200-megapixel HP2 primary sensor and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens, with no dedicated telephoto camera. It appears that Samsung is relying on the 200MP HP2 sensor to handle all zoom requirements.

According to reports, the Galaxy S25 Edge packs high-end specifications, including an LTPO OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 2,600 nits peak brightness. It retains Samsung’s Armor Aluminium frame and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection.

While Samsung has not confirmed the processor, the S25 Edge is expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite, like the rest of the S25 lineup. It is expected to come with other specs, such as 12GB RAM, 512GB of storage, One UI 7-based Android 15, 25W wired charging, and wireless charging.

Expected launch timeline

Samsung is likely to unveil the Galaxy S25 Edge in April or May 2025. As leaks continue to surface, more details about the final specifications and potential trade-offs will emerge.

The post Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge’s latest leak reveals 5.84mm slim chassis, 200MP+12MP dual cameras appeared first on Gizmochina.

During the Galaxy S25 series announcement, Samsung first showcased the Galaxy S25 Edge model. The brand has yet to reveal the launch date for this ultra thin flagship phone, but a fresh leak has revealed some key details regarding the display on the front and the camera system on the rear.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Camera & Screen Protection Tipped

The news arrives from tipster PandaFlash who shared the information on X (formerly Twitter). PandaFlash claims that the main camera is a 200MP sensor, which will be paired with a 12MP ultra wide angle lens. This is in line with one of our earlier reports. The primary shooter is likely the same sensor that Samsung has used on the last few Galaxy Ultra models. Since the Galaxy S25 Edge lacks a telephoto shooter, the model won’t offer optical zoom.

To recall, the Galaxy S25 Ultra has a 200MP main camera with a f/1.7 aperture, multi-directional PDAF, and OIS support. So we can expect it to make a return in the Galaxy S25 Edge as well. So this phone could be positioned between the Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra. On the front, the tipster added that the Edge could sport Corning’s Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for protection. This is a step below the Gorilla Armor 2 found on the Galaxy S25 Ultra.

Rumors have hinted that the S25 Edge will sport a tall 6.7-inch panel. Similar to the rest of the Galaxy S25 lineup, the Edge would likely pack Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite For Galaxy SoC. The model may pack a 3,900mAh battery pack, which could support 25W wired fast charging. This is all the information we have at the moment, so stay tuned for more.

Now that Samsung has teased the Galaxy S25 Edge at the recently held Galaxy S25 series launch event, fans are eagerly waiting for its arrival. Unfortunately, the South Korean tech giant hasn’t revealed its launch timeframe or any of its specifications. It seems that its arrival is not far away, as it has secured 3C certification in China.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge 3C certified

The model numbers of the existing Galaxy S25 series models are as follows: Galaxy S25 (SM-S931), Galaxy S25+ (SM-S936), and Galaxy S25 Ultra (SM-S938). There’s another phone from the same series with model number SM-S937 that is yet to go official. The said device, which is believed to be the Galaxy S25 Edge, has emerged in the database of China’s 3C certification platform. It reveals that the device will support 25W rapid charging, but the charger won’t be included in the retail box, which is hardly a surprise now when it comes to Samsung flagships.

The Galaxy S25 Edge’s Chinese version with model number SM-9370 has been approved by the 3C authority, indicating that it will be launching in a couple of months. To recall, the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra were approved by the 3C authority four months before their launch. Therefore, it may take around four months for the S25 Edge to go official.  

This aligns with a previous report that claimed that the Galaxy S25 Edge (previously known as the Galaxy S25 Slim) would debut in May. According to a report by 9to5Google, a Samsung representative has revealed that it will go official around April.

As far as specs are concerned, reports claim that the Galaxy S25 Edge will be an ultra-thin phone measuring around 6.4mm in thickness. It is said to pack a 3,900mAh battery, a Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, and a 6.7-inch AMOLED display.

The post Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge could be launching soon as it is 3C certified in China   appeared first on Gizmochina.

Yesterday, Samsung held a mega launch event to unveil the Galaxy S25 series of smartphones. There have been reports that the Galaxy S25 lineup will include a fourth model, dubbed the Galaxy S25 Slim. However, at the S25 series launch event, the company teased an upcoming phone called the Galaxy S25 Edge, putting an end to rumors about the “Slim” moniker. Nevertheless, the Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to sport an ultra-thin design. According to a new Weibo post by tipster Digital Chat Station, Chinese smartphone manufacturers are expected to respond by launching their iterations of ultra-thin phones.

Chinese Ultra-thin phones to offer top-notch battery life

The Galaxy S25 Edge reportedly features a 6.7-inch flat OLED panel, the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset, and a battery of around 3,900mAh capacity. Other reports have suggested that the device’s thickness is said to be around 6.4mm.

DCS revealed that Chinese brands like Vivo, Oppo, and Xiaomi will also launch ultra-thin phones like the S25 Edge. These devices will be positioned as mid-range and sub-series smartphones. For those who don’t know, even Apple is said to be working on a slim phone, which is being dubbed by names like iPhone 17 Air or Slim by the rumor mill.

DCS claims the ultra-thin phones from Chinese brands will have bigger batteries and thereby offer better battery life than Samsung and Apple. Therefore, it appears that the slim phones from Vivo, Oppo, and Xiaomi could pack around 4,500mAh+ battery. Hopefully, newer reports will reveal more details about the upcoming slim phones.
