"The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is incredibly versatile, elegant, and powerful. However, despite its impressive specs and high price point, it falls short of near-perfection in some areas, particularly in display and sustained performance compared to competitors."

Samsung teased a potential slimmer "Edge" smartphone at Galaxy Unpacked, but further details remain undisclosed.

Samsung Galaxy AI

Samsung's Galaxy AI algorithm is integrated into the S25 series and is backward compatible with older models, though newer models will offer better performance.
