This is Samsung's thinnest Galaxy S yet

After first appearing in January, the Galaxy S25 Edge was just launched at the Unpacked event that took place on the morning of May 13 (Vietnam time). This is Samsung's thinnest S-series smartphone ever with a thickness of 5.8 mm. For comparison, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is 8.2 mm thin, the Galaxy S25+ is 7.3 mm thin, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max is 8.3 mm. Photo: Bloomberg .

At 163 grams, the Galaxy S25 Edge is just 1 gram heavier than the standard S25, but has a larger screen size (6.7 inches versus 6.2 inches). The device is still slightly thicker than the Galaxy Tab S10 or Z Fold6 series. However, this is currently the only option if users prefer a traditional but thin and light smartphone design.

Samsung emphasizes the minimalist design of the Galaxy S25 Edge with a titanium frame. Despite being thin and light, the device still ensures durability with the front equipped with the new generation Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2, the back using Gorilla Glass Victus 2, along with IP68 water/dust resistance standard.

Samsung confirmed the arrival of Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 a few days ago. The Korean company describes it as a thin yet durable material that can protect phone glass from cracking thanks to crystals embedded in the glass structure. Photo: MobileSyrup .

The Galaxy S25 Edge is equipped with 2 rear cameras, including a 200 MP main camera and a 12 MP ultra-wide-angle camera. According to Samsung, the 200 MP camera uses the same sensor as the S25 Ultra, helping to capture more details, support better low-light shooting and 8K video recording. Photo: The Verge .

A series of AI features supporting photography still appear on the Galaxy S25 Edge. Some outstanding features such as Natural Portraits to help refine portrait photos, Best Faces to support face calibration or Generative Edit, a familiar feature on recent Galaxy devices. Photo: Digital Trends .

Despite being thin and light, the Galaxy S25 Edge is still equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor with a 3nm process, equivalent to the Galaxy S25 Ultra. This chip is also fine-tuned for Galaxy phones to optimize better performance. Photo: The Verge .

In theory, battery life is a concern when smartphones are thinner. The Galaxy S25 Edge has a capacity of 3,900 mAh, lower than the S25 (4,000 mAh) and S25+ (4,900 mAh). However, Samsung emphasizes that the device can be used comfortably all day, with continuous video playback time reaching 24 hours, but still less than the S25 (29 hours) or S25+ (30 hours).

Although more time is needed to evaluate the actual battery life, the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor can optimize energy well. Combined with software tweaked by Samsung, battery life is not too worrying. The product supports fast wired charging up to 25W, equivalent to S25 but slower than S25+ or S25 Ultra (45W).

The Galaxy S25 Edge also supports the Galaxy AI platform. Some notable features include Now Brief, which displays information on the lock screen. In addition, Gemini Live can analyze screenshots or cameras to look up information, in addition to familiar features such as Circle to Search and live translation. Photo: Samsung .

The Galaxy S25 Edge is considered to be the start of the trend of ultra-thin smartphones this year. Based on rumors, Apple may launch an ultra-thin iPhone later this year. The device is likely to be equally thin but only equipped with a single rear camera. Analysts say the ultra-thin design could be a factor that encourages users to upgrade their smartphones, in the context of increasingly long device usage time. Photo: The Verge .

Compared to the Galaxy S25/S25+, choosing the Galaxy S25 Edge depends on the user's needs.

Meanwhile, the S25 and S25+ support 3 rear cameras, large battery capacity and low price. Photo: MobileSyrup .

The Galaxy S25 Edge is available in limited quantities in select markets, including Vietnam. According to Samsung, users can pre-order the device from May 13 with a starting price of VND30 million (12GB RAM, 256GB storage), or VND33.5 million (12GB RAM, 512GB storage). This figure is higher than the listed price of the Galaxy S25 (VND22 million), S25+ (VND26 million) and lower than the S25 Ultra (VND34 million). Photo: The Verge .
