Samsung unveils Galaxy S25 Edge, "ultra-slim" flagship

Samsung has just introduced the Galaxy S25 Edge, a new slim variant of its flagship S series featuring a 5.8 mm titanium frame, making it one of the thinnest premium smartphones on the market. 

The 163-gram device retains the 6.7-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display from the S25+ while incorporating a 200 MP wide main camera with improved low-light performance and Galaxy AI features like on-device Audio Eraser.  

Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform, the S25 Edge offers 12 GB RAM with storage options of 256GB or 512 GB. The phone uses Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 for durability and includes a 3,900 mAh battery. It will be available in Titanium Silver, Jet Black and Icy Blue colour variants.  

The Galaxy S25 Edge launches in South Korea on May 23 before expanding to the US and over 30 other markets, including China and Europe, on May 30, with prices starting at $1,099. 

The unusually timed release comes just four months after Samsung's flagship S25 debut, as the company faces growing competition from Apple's rumoured slim iPhone 17 Air and Chinese smartphone makers. Samsung's mobile division recently reported strong Q1 earnings driven by S25 series sales.
