Samsung unveils the Galaxy S25 series and more at Galaxy Unpacked 2025

Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+: a performance boost with Snapdragon

The Galaxy S25 and S25+ have received notable upgrades this year, particularly in processing power, as Samsung has opted for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy instead of last year’s Exynos chips.

In terms of design, the S25 and S25+ remain largely unchanged from their predecessors, featuring ultra-thin bezels and a centered punch-hole front camera. The back retains its glass finish with individual camera lenses emerging from the chassis, while the flat aluminum frame—made from recycled materials—adds a premium feel.

The Galaxy S25 sports a 6.2-inch Full HD+ Infinity-O Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, while the S25+ boasts a larger 6. 7-inch QHD+ screen, both supporting 120Hz refresh rates and peak brightness levels of up to 2600 nits. Under the hood, both devices are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy built on a 3nm process, paired with 12GB of RAM and 256GB or 512GB of storage—with the S25 also offering a 128GB base model. The camera setup includes a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 12MP ultra-wide lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. The front-facing camera remains at 12MP, optimized for better low-light performance. Battery capacities are 4,000mAh for the S25 and 4,900mAh for the S25+, with 25W and 45W fast charging support, respectively. Both models support 15W wireless charging, IP68 water and dust resistance, an in-display fingerprint sensor, and ship with Android 15 and One UI 7. The Galaxy S25 and S25+ will be available in Navy, Icy Blue, Silver Shadow, and Mint, with starting prices of €929 (S25) and €1,189 (S25+).

Galaxy S25 Ultra: the ultimate flagship experience

The Galaxy S25 Ultra remains the crown jewel of Samsung’s flagship lineup, promising top-tier performance, premium materials, and an upgraded camera system. Design-wise, the biggest change comes in the curved frame, making the device feel less angular and more comfortable to hold. The rear panel is glass, while the side frame is now made from Grade 5 titanium, enhancing durability while keeping the device lightweight. The Ultra model features a 6.9-inch QHD+ Infinity-O Edge Dynamic AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and 2600-nit peak brightness for an unmatched viewing experience.
