Samsung is set to officially unveil the latest addition to its premium smartphone lineup — the Galaxy S25 Edge — during a global launch event scheduled for May 12 at 8:00 p.m. ET (or 5:30 a.m. IST on May 13). This eagerly anticipated release will mark the debut of the fourth variant in the Galaxy S25 family, following the base S25, the S25 Plus, and the high-end S25 Ultra.
What distinguishes the Galaxy S25 Edge from its siblings is its more refined and lightweight construction, making it a top pick for users seeking a slimmer profile without compromising core features. While Samsung gave fans an early look at the device’s silhouette during a previous preview event in January, exact dimensions remain under wraps. However, insiders confirm that although the height and width will be comparable to the regular Galaxy S25, the Edge model will be considerably thinner, giving it a modern, minimalistic appeal.
In terms of rear camera setup, the S25 Edge diverges from the rest of the S25 series. It will house two cameras on the back, a configuration that mirrors the minimalist approach seen in Samsung’s Z Flip lineup, offering a nod to users who prefer simplicity over bulkier modules.
Detailed Hardware Specifications Revealed
According to fresh reports, particularly from the tech site WinFuture, the Galaxy S25 Edge will feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, promising vibrant visuals and deep contrast. Powering the device is the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, a custom version of Qualcomm’s flagship chipset, ensuring high-end performance for gaming, multitasking, and photography.
The handset is expected to come with 12GB of RAM and internal storage options of either 256GB or 512GB, giving users plenty of space for apps, videos, and media. Fueling this sleek powerhouse is a 3,800mAh battery, which, though smaller than the one found in the S25 Ultra, should provide sufficient power thanks to optimizations within the chip and One UI software.
Color Options and Expected Price Range
The Galaxy S25 Edge will reportedly launch in at least three color variants: Jet Black, Icy Blue, and Silver, catering to a broad range of aesthetic preferences. While Samsung has yet to confirm pricing, tech analysts expect the phone to land in the premium mid-range bracket, potentially making it a compelling choice for consumers who want flagship features in a sleeker form factor.
All eyes will be on Samsung during the May 12 Unpacked event as the company outlines its vision for the Galaxy S25 Edge and its role within the broader S25 ecosystem.
