This answers at least <em>one<\/em> of our many questions about Samsung\u2019s upcoming slim phone which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2025\/1\/22\/24349658\/samsung-galaxy-s25-edge-photos-unpacked\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the company teased back in January<\/a>. A blog post published with today\u2019s announcement reveals another tidbit or two, but for the rest of the answers we\u2019ll have to tune in on Monday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">Samsung isn\u2019t being coy about what it\u2019s announcing: it\u2019s definitely the Galaxy S25 Edge. The blog post comes right out and names the device, saying it \u201c\u2026not only sets a new standard for what you can achieve with your smartphone, but it also unlocks a new era of growth for the mobile industry.\u201d That would be great news for an industry that has seen <a href=\"https:\/\/my.idc.com\/getdoc.jsp?containerId=prUS53072325\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">slumping sales<\/a> over the past few years. Also noted in the blog post: despite its slim profile, the S25 Edge will come with a 200-megapixel main camera, like the top-of-the-line Galaxy S25 Ultra does.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.theverge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/chorus\/uploads\/chorus_asset\/file\/25842768\/vpavic_20250122_Untitled_Job_0174.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;crop=0,10.732984293194,100,78.534031413613\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\" data-caption=\"Well, it\u2019s a slim phone alright.\" data-portal-copyright=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">That suggests the S25 Edge will clock in as more of a premium device than Apple\u2019s rumored slim phone might be. The iPhone 17 Air could come with a single rear camera and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/630917\/iphone-17-air-pro-max-dummies-leak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a mix of high and low-end features<\/a>. The S25 Edge, according to Samsung, will merge \u201cflagship-level performance with superior portability.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-none\">So what does a flagship-level slim phone that\u2019s supposedly going to set the ailing mobile industry on fire cost? And where will it be sold? Recent rumors <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidpolice.com\/wait-longer-galaxy-s25-edge-us\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pointed to a delayed US launch<\/a>. It wouldn\u2019t be too surprising to see the phone launch first in South Korea, though the fact that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.samsung.com\/us\/smartphones\/the-next-galaxy\/reserve\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Samsung US is offering a $50 credit<\/a> to those who reserve the phone now bodes well for us. At least one thing looks certain: we won\u2019t have to keep guessing for much longer. The virtual event will stream in plenty of places, including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/samsung\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Samsung\u2019s YouTube channel<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s gonna be May. | Image: Samsung Samsung will formally unveil the Galaxy S25 Edge during a virtual Unpacked event [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":44,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-43","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-non-classe"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/slim_resized-z5j3Yu.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=43"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/43\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=43"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=43"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.actutech.app\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=43"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
