Boasting powerful hardware, an upgraded design, and a focus on Galaxy AI integrations, these models aim to set a new standard in the Android ecosystem. While the Galaxy S25 Ultra headlines the series, the S25 and S25 Plus offer a robust experience, bridging the gap between affordability and premium performance.
Refined Design and Display
The Galaxy S25 series maintains Samsung’s iconic design language, with subtle refinements for a sleeker, boxier appearance.

Powerful Internals and Enhanced Cameras
At the heart of the Galaxy S25 series is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chip paired with 12GB of RAM, delivering top-tier performance. A boosted vapor chamber ensures better thermal management, with 15% improved cooling compared to previous models.
