Samsung Unpacked 2025 did end with a surprise, and they left the crowds buzzing. One of the iconic “one more thing” moments, is the brief teaser for what is called Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, an extremely thin addition, to the company’s S25 lineup. They did not get into details yet, but their teaser confirmed every rumor that mentioned a slimmer version of one of the brand’s flagship products, adding much more attention to the launches of the new Galaxy S25 series.
Galaxy S25 Edge
The Galaxy S25 Edge seems to be a variant of the top-of-the-line model, made to accompany the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. Since no specifications were announced, the company showcased dummy models at the event, giving an idea about its incredibly slim profile. The Edge is reportedly going to have a 6.4 mm thickness, while the standard Galaxy S25 would have a profile of 7.2 mm.
Samsung did not announce pricing, availability, or any other features of the Galaxy S25 Edge. This strategic decision might have been a ploy to keep the focus on the S25 series, which is scheduled for release on February 7. The teaser, however, was enough to create hype and speculation among early adopters who appreciate new design innovations.
Effect on Preorders
The announcement has brought uncertainty for the would-be Galaxy S25 buyers, as many tech enthusiasts may hold off preordering the standard S25 model in anticipation of the thinner Edge variant. Leaving the release date and specs of the Edge vague may keep the buzz alive while protecting the momentum of the Galaxy S25’s primary launch.
A New Standard for Thin Smartphones?
If the rumors about a 6.4 mm thickness are true, then the Galaxy S25 Edge will be a new benchmark for ultra-thin smartphones and attract users who prefer portability and sleek looks. The design philosophy of the Edge seems to reflect Samsung’s intent to push the boundaries of innovation in smartphones while diversifying its flagship lineup.
Looking Ahead
Given the fact that Samsung is planning to release the Galaxy S25 fast approaching on February 7, the teaser put out by Samsung is giving fans something to wait with bated breath about the Galaxy S25 Edge. Although it’s not yet known when this ultra-thin model is going to reach the market, the cryptic reveal at Samsung Unpacked assures that the buzz for the S25 series continues unabated.
