Galaxy S25 Ultra
The Galaxy S25 Ultra is the pinnacle of this year’s lineup. Featuring a 6.9-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, it boasts a slimmer design and enhanced titanium construction.

Galaxy S25 Edge
While not confirmed, it’s highly likely that the Galaxy S25 Edge that Samsung teased was the widely rumoured ‘Slim’ model.
Aside from showing it off in a first look at the San Jose event, the company hasn’t revealed any specific details about the phone.

However, leaks and rumours paint a clearer picture, suggesting the Edge will be just 6.4mm thick and offer a display between 6.7- and 6.8 inches.
It’s expected to match the S25 Ultra with 200Mp main rear, 50Mp ultrawide and 12Mp selfie cameras, though the 50Mp ultrawide will supposedly be downgraded from 5x to 3.5x optical zoom. Most of the other specs are expected to remain the same, including the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset, but battery capacity remains a mystery.
The phone is rumoured to launch in April and be priced somewhere between the S25+ and S25 Ultra.

The sleek headset combines advanced AI-driven interactions with a lightweight design and promises revolutionary capabilities in gaming, education, and entertainment.
Although initially planned for release to developers, a consumer release is expected at an as-yet-unspecified date.

Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event has set a bold tone for 2025, and it looks set to be the first of many big launches for the company this year.
