Samsung has unveiled its latest ultra-slim flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S25 Edge. This model echoes the design of the earlier Galaxy S25 but boasts an even slimmer profile at just 5.8mm thick. Weighing a mere 163 grams, it’s as light as it is sleek. Mark your calendars for the release on May 30, with a starting price of $1099.99. Preorders are currently open, and if you act fast, you can snag a free $50 gift card from Amazon. Plus, preorder customers will enjoy double the storage at no extra cost.

In terms of specifications, the Galaxy S25 Edge closely mirrors the S25 Plus, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip. It features a 6.7-inch OLED display and comes equipped with Galaxy AI. However, it omits the telephoto camera lens, opting instead for a 12MP selfie camera, a 12MP ultra-wide AF, and a 200MP wide-angle lens with 2x optical-quality zoom. Due to its slim design, the battery life is slightly compromised, offering up to 24 hours of video playback according to the official site.
Choose from three elegant color options: titanium black, titanium icy blue, and titanium silver. Each variant enhances the phone's sleek aesthetic, with the selfie camera discreetly placed as a tiny dot at the top of the display.
The Galaxy AI features allow you to summarize notes and enhance your photos. If you're in the market for a thin, lightweight smartphone that doesn't compromise on performance, the Galaxy S25 Edge could be your ideal choice. It's the thinnest S-series phone Samsung has ever produced.
Previous ultra-thin smartphones have occasionally faced issues with bending when carried in pockets. However, the Galaxy S25 Edge should withstand such concerns, thanks to its robust titanium casing and Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 face. Whether the Galaxy S25 Edge will claim the title of the best smartphone on the market remains to be seen.
