Samsung Teases Galaxy S25 Edge: Ultra-Thin Design, Minimal Compromises
Following the unveiling of its flagship Galaxy S25 series, Samsung has officially teased its upcoming device: the Galaxy S25 Edge. Reviving the iconic “Edge” name, which had been absent from the lineup for several years, Samsung positions the S25 Edge as the slimmest smartphone in the series yet.
This new addition seems to be the Galaxy S25 Slim we’ve heard rumors about, with its official name being the S25 Edge. The device is expected to deliver a sleek, ultra-thin profile, which may come at the expense of some features.

Design and Features
The Galaxy S25 Edge will sport a more minimalist design, with two rear cameras rather than the triple-camera system seen in the other S25 models. This trade-off is likely aimed at achieving the ultra-thin profile, which could result in a reduced battery capacity as well—something consumers may need to consider when evaluating their options.
Samsung’s focus on a slim, stylish look suggests they are betting on design and portability as key selling points for the device. However, this raises questions about how much buyers will be willing to sacrifice in terms of battery life and camera capabilities for the sake of an ultra-thin smartphone.
Launch and Pricing
The Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to launch in May 2025, with an earlier reveal likely. Samsung is positioning the device to be priced between the S25+ and S25 Ultra, targeting consumers who prioritize a slim design and portability over advanced features.
With the iPhone 17 Air also aiming for a similar audience, the S25 Edge will compete for those who want a thinner, more stylish device. How this ultra-thin trend resonates in the market remains to be seen, and the success of the S25 Edge will be a key indicator of the growing appeal of slim smartphones.
