Galaxy S25 Edge: Everything you should know

It's called the Galaxy S25 Edge, and even though Samsung teased it and had it on display for Unpacked attendees to see, most of the phone's technical details have not yet been officially confirmed.

The Galaxy S25 Edge is a brand-new entry into the Galaxy S series. There's never been an Edge phone before, so you can bet there is a lot of buzz around this one. Many specs have been speculated upon and leaked, and if you want to catch up on the latest rumors and reports, you will find a full recap below.

This story will be updated as new information about the Galaxy S25 Edge emerges.

Everything you should know about the Galaxy S25 Edge

One of the most unique features of the Galaxy S25 Edge is its slim profile, which is why industry watchers used to refer to this phone as the “Galaxy S25 Slim” before Unpacked.

Even so, nobody knows precisely how thin the Galaxy S25 Edge will be once it goes on sale. Samsung said the design demonstrated at Unpacked is subject to change, but the demo unit looked very skinny.

Initial rumors said the Galaxy S25 Edge will have a 6.4mm profile, but later leaks revealed Samsung's much more ambitious plans. The Galaxy S25 Edge might measure only 5.8mm.

Spec-wise, the Galaxy S25 Edge should share some DNA with the rest of the series. And while it was initially believed that the Galaxy S25 Edge will use the 7-core version of the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, more recent information points at the same 8-core chip the rest of the premium series uses.

Here is a full recap of every bit of hardware and software information on the Galaxy S25 Elite that has leaked or has been rumored so far:

• We exclusively revealed that the Galaxy S25 Edge has a ceramic build. Specifically, it could be a new material called Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2.
• The Galaxy S25 Edge may have a titanium alloy frame.
• Despite its 5.8mm profile, the Galaxy S25 Edge should be strong enough to pass bend tests.
• The phone supposedly weighs only 163 grams.
• Leaked official Galaxy S25 Edge renders show up online.
• Color options may include Titanium Jet Black, Titanium Silver, and Titanium Icy Blue.
• High-resolution Galaxy S25 Edge wallpapers leak.
• 256GB/512GB of storage and 12GB of RAM.
• A 200MP primary camera. It could be paired with a 12MP ultrawide unit.
• A 3,900-4,000mAh battery.
• A 6.7-inch AMOLED Infinity-O display, possibly with a resolution of around 3120 x 1440. The rumored resolution downgrade may not happen. Brightness and refresh rate details are unknown.
• One UI 7 with the latest Galaxy AI features.
• Support for seven yearly OS upgrades.
• 8-core Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. An online benchmark strengthened this theory.
• An FCC clearing brought the Galaxy S25 Edge closer to its debut.
• The Galaxy S25 Edge shows up in a new leaked video.
• We exclusively reveal a May 13 launch for the Galaxy S25 Edge. A newer leak, a month later, reconfirmed the May 13 date.
• Initially, the phone's release may be limited to China and South Korea. A May 30 launch for the USA might follow.
• Prices for the Galaxy S25 Edge reportedly hover around $1,049 for the 256GB model and $1,140 for the 512GB variant.

All in all, the Galaxy S25 Edge will be a reinterpretation of the Samsung premium phone formula — one we haven't had before. It's something new, and it kind of shows that Samsung is still willing to step outside its comfort zone. Whether or not the phone and Samsung's efforts will be worth it remains to be determined.
