Samsung Galaxy S25 Series Pre-order Sale date Surfaces Online starting from January 24th
Samsung is set to unveil its next-generation flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S25 Series, on January 22, 2025, according to a leak from the Korean publication FNNews. This launch is expected to occur about a week earlier than the Galaxy S24 Series, which debuted on January 31, 2024.
New Slim Model Addition -
The Galaxy S25 Series will introduce a slim model, joining the existing General, Plus, and Ultra variants. This move responds to the increasing demand for thinner and lighter smartphones. Although the exact thickness of the slim model hasn't been disclosed, it is expected to be thinner than the Galaxy S24 General model, which measures 7.6mm.
Samsung's last slim variant was the Galaxy Alpha, released in March 2014, which measured 6.7mm in thickness. The Galaxy S25 Slim is expected to debut at the Galaxy Unpacked event, although its availability is uncertain. Some reports suggest it will launch alongside the other S25 models, while others speculate a delayed release later in the year.
Features and Specifications -
The Galaxy S25 Series may see a price increase in some markets compared to the S24 lineup. It will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, ensuring consistent performance across all global variants.
The Galaxy S25 Ultra is rumored to feature a 50MP ultrawide camera, an upgrade from the 12MP ultrawide camera on the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Additionally, the Ultra variant will come with 16GB of RAM, with 512GB and 1TB storage options. The entire series will ship with One UI 7, Samsung’s latest software, which includes enhanced security features for generative AI applications.
