We’re getting close to a year since the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S24 series, which means it’s almost time for the Galaxy S25 series to break cover—and there have been plenty of leaks and rumors about what to expect. Nothing is confirmed yet, but here you’ll find all of that speculation collected and cross-referenced.
It looks as though we’re going to get four models next year: The usual trio of the standard Galaxy S25, the Galaxy S25 Plus, and the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and then the added bonus of a new Galaxy S25 ‘Slim’ model that goes for a thinner form factor (and may or may not end up replacing the Galaxy S24 FE).
Samsung Galaxy S25: launch date and pricing
Considering the Galaxy S24 phones were launched on January 17, 2024, it’s a safe bet that we’ll see the Galaxy S25 replacements around a year later. Most well-placed sources, including South Korean outlet Financial News, are predicting an Unpacked event on Wednesday, January 22, 2025—with a possible on-sale date of February 7.
There’s some debate about whether or not the Galaxy S25 Slim will appear at the same time as the other three models, or come out later in the year: It’s possible we might get a January tease before a full launch several months down the line. Some tipsters have specified Q2 2025 for this handset (April, May, or June).
A promotional poster for Galaxy Unpacked January 2025 has leaked online, which makes reference to the January 22 date. It also looks like we can see the corners of four different phones there, backing up the idea that the Slim model is going to be showcased at this event even if it doesn’t go on sale immediately.
As for pricing, most of the leaks so far are predicting some kind of bump over the launch prices attached to the Galaxy S24 models (which started at $799 for the base model). This has been attributed to the cost of the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, but there may be variations between countries.
Samsung Galaxy S25: four different models
The Galaxy S25 series will start with the standard S25 model: While it will have that faster Snapdragon chip on the inside, on the outside, it doesn’t look like much will change. The same 6.2-inch screen is expected, and there might be some tweaks to the camera lens design. Speaking of cameras, several sources say the Galaxy S25 will match the Galaxy S24 with a triple-lens 50MP+10MP+12MP rear camera setup with 3x optical zoom.
It’s much the same story with the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus—there won’t be much in the way of upgrades over the Galaxy S24 Plus, apart from the faster silicon inside and a potential bump to 12GB of RAM. The general consensus is that the screen size will stay the same at 6.7 inches, while the rear camera will match the standard S25. We have seen some hands-on images for this handset leaked too.
There’s a bit more changing with the Galaxy 25 Ultra, apparently. It’s rumored to have more rounded corners, tiny bezels, and an upgrade to the ultrawide camera that’s part of the triple-lens setup on the back (from 12MP to 50MP). The screen size will remain the same at 6.8 inches, but we might see a 16GB option for the RAM, alongside the upgrade to the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
As for the new Galaxy S25 Slim model, based on the leaks that have emerged to date, we’re looking at a phone that could be thinner than the rest with a high-end camera setup on the back that beats the standard Galaxy S25. It’s not clear what else this handset is going to bring with it, but the Snapdragon 8 Elite should be the processor inside it.
Samsung Galaxy S25: other specs and features
It doesn’t look like the Galaxy S25 phones are going to be drastically different from the Galaxy S24 equivalents in a lot of areas: The rather slow charging speeds are apparently going to be the same again, while battery capacities might not be upgraded either (though internal optimizations may lead to better battery life).
There have been some rumors spreading about the colors that are coming with the new phones—and it’s mostly what we’ve seen before, plus some potential new additions. Blues, whites, and grays dominate, though it’s not clear exactly what the differences will be from the Galaxy S24 series until we actually see them (the same color could be used but with a new name, for example).
It looks very probable that the final version of One UI 7.0 (Samsung’s take on Android 15) will be pushed out alongside the Galaxy 25 phones. The software is currently in beta testing, and—unsurprisingly—comes with a bunch of new AI features (including call transcriptions) as well as some tweaks to the interface design.
All told, we already have a good idea of what’s coming from Samsung with the Galaxy S25 series, although of course, nothing is confirmed until it actually is. While there aren’t any dramatic upgrades in the pipeline, it would seem there are a few well-chosen tweaks on the way—as well as, perhaps, a fourth model.
