Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy S25 Edge, its latest flagship smartphone, at the May Unpacked event. Although it shares many similarities with the earlier-released Galaxy S25 in 2025, the S25 Edge introduces a notably thinner design, providing it with a distinct edge.
When comparing specs, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge closely mirrors the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, utilizing the same powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and boasting a high-resolution 200MP camera. The primary difference lies in its chassis, which has been refined to an impressive 5.8mm thickness, down from the 8.2mm of the S25 Ultra. This slimmer profile also makes the phone lighter, now weighing just 163g.
Despite its larger size, the S25 Edge maintains the same 6.7-inch AMOLED 2X display as the Galaxy S25, which is slightly smaller than the 6.9-inch display on the S25 Ultra.
Given its thin and expansive design, durability is a significant concern. Samsung addresses this by incorporating the new Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2, which is claimed to be more durable than the Gorilla Glass Armor 2 used in the S25 Ultra. The real test, however, will be its resilience against everyday mishaps like being sat on, raising questions about potential "bendgate" issues.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge also inherits the suite of "Mobile AI" tools that were introduced with the Galaxy S24 and enhanced in 2025. The Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset facilitates robust local AI processing, enhancing privacy by reducing reliance on cloud services. Yet, many AI applications still depend on the cloud. Samsung's AI features include handy tools for summarizing notifications and news articles, which can be particularly useful for quick information consumption.
Preorders for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge are now open, starting at $1,099 for the 256GB model and $1,219 for the 512GB version. The phone is available in three sophisticated color options: Titanium Silver, Titanium Jet Black, and Titanium Icyblue.
Samsung emphasizes the durability of this sleek device, and users will hope that this claim holds true in real-world conditions.
