Samsung has unveiled its latest ultra-slim flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S25 Edge. This model echoes the earlier released Galaxy S25 but stands out with its remarkably thin profile—just 5.8mm thick. Not only is it slim, but it's also lightweight, tipping the scales at only 163 grams. Set for release on May 30, the Galaxy S25 Edge comes with a price tag of $1099.99. Preorders are now open, and if you act fast, you can snag it from Amazon with a free $50 gift card. Plus, preordering doubles your storage at no extra cost.

In terms of specs, the Galaxy S25 Edge closely mirrors the S25 Plus. It's powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip and features a 6.7-inch OLED display enhanced with Galaxy AI. However, it omits the telephoto camera, opting instead for a 12MP selfie camera, a 12MP ultra-wide autofocus, and a 200MP wide-angle lens with 2x optical-quality zoom. Due to its slim design, battery life is somewhat compromised, offering up to 24 hours of video playback according to the official site.
The phone is available in three sophisticated color options: titanium black, titanium icy blue, and titanium silver. These hues complement the phone's sleek design, with the selfie camera subtly integrated as a tiny dot at the top of the display.
Galaxy AI enhances the user experience with features like note summarization and photo enhancement. If you're in the market for a powerful yet lightweight phone, the Galaxy S25 Edge is an excellent choice. It's the thinnest S-series phone Samsung has ever produced.
It's worth noting that previous ultra-thin phones have sometimes had issues with bending. However, the Galaxy S25 Edge mitigates this concern with its titanium casing and Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 front. Will the Galaxy S25 Edge claim the title of the best smartphone on the market? Only time will tell.
