Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: What to expect

 

At Galaxy Unpacked, Samsung showcased a dummy model of the Galaxy S25 Edge, revealing a dual-camera set-up on the back. The smartphone appears to be much thinner than the base Galaxy S25 models, with reports suggesting a 5.84mm thickness. It is also expected to be lighter, likely due to adjustments in battery capacity and camera configuration.

 

The Edge model is expected to feature a larger display than the base Galaxy S25, closer to the 6.7-inch screen size of the Plus variant. Despite this, it is expected to weigh around 162g—similar to the base model—due to trade-offs in battery capacity. The S25 Edge is reportedly equipped with a 3,900mAh battery, smaller than those in other S25 models.

For imaging, the Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to feature a 200MP ISOCELL HP2 primary sensor, similar to the one used in the Galaxy S25 Ultra. However, unlike other models in the series, it is likely to have only a 12MP ultra-wide sensor, omitting a dedicated telephoto camera.
