Samsung’s sleek new flagship, the Galaxy S25 Edge, is making waves before it even hits the shelves. After being teased during the Galaxy Unpacked event in January and later appearing at MWC 2025, it’s now closer than ever to launch. This upcoming model is expected to be a slimmed-down, more premium version of the Galaxy S25+, with some serious power and flagship-grade hardware packed into a razor-thin body. Let’s take a look at everything that’s been leaked so far.
Launch
According to well-known tipster Ice Universe, the Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to launch at the end of May. However, don’t expect a worldwide release right away. Samsung is reportedly planning to roll out the phone first in South Korea and China. There’s no word yet on availability in India or other global markets, but a broader launch could follow in the weeks after.
Initially, leaks pointed to an April 15 release, but it seems Samsung decided to push the launch back a few weeks. A more recent rumor suggests May 13 might be the official unveiling date, but again, we’re likely looking at an online-only event.
Design
The Galaxy S25 Edge is turning heads mainly because of its ultra-slim profile. At just 5.84mm thick, it might be the thinnest flagship phone Samsung has ever released. That’s even slimmer than most midrange devices on the market. The design is said to follow the same premium language as the Galaxy S25 Ultra, with color options like Titanium IcyBlue, Titanium Jetblack, and Titanium Silver. It’s stylish, minimal, and definitely eye-catching.
Performance
Under the hood, the S25 Edge is tipped to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy — a slightly overclocked version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, customized for Samsung. With 12GB of RAM, this phone should offer top-tier performance, whether you’re gaming, multitasking, or editing 4K videos. It’s expected to come in two storage variants: 256GB and 512GB.
Display
Samsung is known for its displays, and the Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to be no exception. Leaks suggest it will come with a 6.6-inch screen — likely an AMOLED panel with high refresh rate support. While we don’t have specifics on brightness and resolution yet, it’s safe to assume this will be a vibrant, color-accurate screen ideal for content consumption.
Camera
Cameras are another standout feature. The Galaxy S25 Edge is said to come with a dual rear camera setup that includes a massive 200MP primary sensor — a spec borrowed straight from the Ultra series. Paired with a 12MP secondary sensor, likely for ultrawide shots, this setup should deliver sharp, detailed photos in almost any lighting condition. On the front, while the selfie camera details haven’t been revealed yet, it’s expected to offer solid performance for video calls and selfies.
Battery
With its slim profile, it’s no surprise the battery capacity is a bit smaller than other flagships. The S25 Edge is expected to feature a 3,900mAh battery, which should last a full day with moderate use. It supports 25W fast charging, which is decent, though not as fast as some competitors that push 65W or more.
Pricing
As expected with Samsung’s premium designs and specs, the Galaxy S25 Edge won’t come cheap. Here’s a quick look at the expected pricing:
| Variant | Price (EUR) | Price (INR approx) |
|---|---|---|
| 256GB Storage | EUR 1,361 | Rs. 1,27,900 |
| 512GB Storage | EUR 1,487 | Rs. 1,39,800 |
These prices put it right in the same league as the Galaxy S25 Ultra, reinforcing its position as a premium alternative for users who prefer a slim, stylish device.
Samsung appears to be creating a niche for the Galaxy S25 Edge — a super-thin flagship that doesn’t compromise on performance or camera quality. With a potential launch just weeks away, fans won’t have to wait long to see if it lives up to the hype.
