\"Samsung

The S25 Edge is just 5.8mm thick, not counting the camera bump.<\/figcaption><\/p><\/figure>\n

Samsung’s thin phone is here. The Galaxy S25 Edge – first teased back in January<\/a> – is essentially a slimmed-down S25 Plus, with the same 6.7-inch OLED display, Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset, and AI features. The compact design comes at a price though, and you’ll have to do without the telephoto lens or beefy battery.<\/p>\n

At 163g (about 5.7 ounces), the Edge is just a gram heavier than the regular S25, with its dinky little 6.2-inch screen, and at 5.8mm thick it’s comfortably thinner than any Samsung slab phone in years. It’s still slightly thicker than Samsung’s Tab S10 tablets<\/a> or Z Fold 6 foldable<\/a>, which have enough space to get thinner by spreading their batteries out a little more, but if you prefer traditional phone form factors then this is among the thinnest you can buy right now – at least until the rumored iPhone 17 Air<\/a> comes along.<\/p>\n

Photos seem to undersell the effect, which I think will be Samsung’s challenge marketing the Edge: it basically just looks like a regular phone until you pick it up, which is when everyone seems to ooooh<\/em> involuntarily.<\/p>\n

The \u00ab\u00a0Edge\u00a0\u00bb name suggests that Samsung is going to lean on how thin the phone is, but for me the weight is more imp \u2026<\/p>\n
