Samsung’s Surprise Unveiling: The Galaxy S25 Edge
At the Galaxy Unpacked event a month ago, Samsung unveiled a surprise addition to the S25 family: the Galaxy S25 Edge. This ultra-thin flagship is set to debut at MWC 4 on March 2025, ahead of Apple’s anticipated iPhone 25 Air.
Since its announcement, leaks about the S25 Edge’s features have been rampant. Now, a Mexican Youtuber has shared a video showcasing a prototype or test device of the model, revealing some of its key specifications.
Ultra-Thin Design
The S25 Edge is poised to set a new standard for ultra-thin flagships, surpassing even Apple’s rumored iPhone 25 Air. The video comparison with the Galaxy Z Fold6 demonstrates the Edge’s remarkable thinness, nearly identical to the Z Fold6’s 5.6 mm when opened.
System Specifications
An application within the video displays system specifications that provide valuable insights into the S25 Edge’s features. According to this table, the device will boast a 4000 mAh battery, model number SM-S937U (matching previous Geekbench results), 12 GB of RAM, and 256 GB of storage. Higher storage configurations may also be available.
Camera
The video reveals a rear camera with a resolution of 12 Megapixels and a front camera with a resolution of 12 Megapixels. However, the front-facing camera is likely an Ultra-wide-angle lens. The main camera is expected to feature a 200 MP ISOCELL HP2 sensor, as seen in the S25 Ultra model.
Processor
The video does not provide any information on the processor. However, speculations suggest that the S25 Edge will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, a performance-enhanced variant of the Snapdragon 8 Elite.
Potential Impact
The S25 Edge has the potential to capture the attention of end users with its ultra-thin design, powerful specifications, and advanced camera system. It could potentially replace the FE (Fan Edition) line, which has been discontinued by Samsung.
Whether the S25 Edge will live up to its hype remains to be seen. However, the leaked features and the video showcasing the device provide intriguing glimpses into Samsung’s plans for the future of flagship smartphones.
