With the Samsung Galaxy S25 series now available, the company’s attention is turning to its next handset, the Galaxy S25 Edge. The phone is expected to be a game-changer and will likely be marketed against Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 Air. Now we know better when the Samsung phone could be released.
According to tipster Max Jambor (via Android Headlines), the new phone should be available for purchase during the year’s second quarter. Previous rumors suggested the phone would be available sometime around April, so the tip seems to confirm this.
The second quarter starts on April 1.
The Galaxy S25 Edge was teased at last month’s Unpacked event in San Jose, California. As the name suggests, this phone is expected to have a skinny body, with some reports indicating a thickness of under 5.84 mm. In comparison, the recently released Galaxy S54 has a thickness of 7.2 mm.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to prioritize thinness without sacrificing premium build quality. It is rumored to feature an Armor Aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass Victus 2, which will protect a large, potentially 6.66-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display. This display is said to have incredibly thin bezels, enhancing the immersive viewing experience.
Internally, the device will likely be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, ensuring top-tier performance. It is also expected to include 12GB of RAM and fast UFS 4.0 storage, the same specifications found in the rest of the Galaxy S25 lineup.
The camera setup is anticipated to be impressive, featuring a 200MP main sensor and a 50MP ultra-wide lens, although it may not be as comprehensive as the S25 Ultra.
A 3,900mAh battery is rumored to power the device, though the slim design may reduce capacity slightly. The Galaxy S25 Edge is also expected to come with modern connectivity options, including Bluetooth 5.4 and Wi-Fi 7, along with premium features such as an ultrasonic under-display fingerprint reader and stereo speakers.
Last year, Apple unveiled the thinnest iPad Pro to date. Shortly after, rumors circulated that the company was developing an exceptionally thin iPhone. Around the same time, whispers about the Galaxy S25 Edge heated up. In other words, being thin is a growing trend in tech; it should be an exciting ride.
Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
