The Galaxy S25 Edge thin design flagship is now official after Samsung teased the smartphone at its Galaxy Unpacked event, introducing the Galaxy S25 series back in late January. The manufacturer announced the device in a standalone event on Monday, confirming that it will have an ultra-slim width of 5.8mm and weigh just 163 grams. The introduction of the new device is expected to set the pace for other brands planning their own slim and light smartphone models, such as Apple’s iPhone Air, which is set to release in the fall. 

Samsung last used the Edge branding in 2016 with the Galaxy S7 Edge. That device featured a “dual edge” form factor with two curved sides. Once a signature design for Samsung, which was coopted by many in the smartphone industry, it can be seen as the precursor to foldable smartphones. Now, years of engineering the right balance of thinness and weight for foldables can be applied to a super-slim slate smartphone. 

The Galaxy S25 Edge features a 6.7-inch Quad HD display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 2,600 nits brightness. It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor, and includes 12GB of RAM, 256GB and 512GB of internal storage options, and a 3,900mAh battery with 25W wired charging. For software, the device will run Android 15 with a One UI 7 overlay and Galaxy AI features.  

The device also features a titanium frame, which aids in its lightness, Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 for its front panel, and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for its back panel. The device supports IP68 dust and water resistance, and will be available in Jet Black, Titanium Silver, and Icy Blue color options. 

The Galaxy S25 Edge has a dual camera, which also contributes to its thinness. It includes a 200-megapixel main lens, the same one that is featured on the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and a 12-megapixel wide-angle lens. 

The Galaxy S25 Edge will launch on May 30, with pre-orders currently available at Samsung.com or at the Shop Samsung app. The 256GB model is priced at $1,100, while the 512GB model is priced at $1,220.
