The Samsung Galaxy S25 is among the many most anticipated telephones of 2025, and the good news is that it should even be one in all many first new telephones of 2025.
Whereas there is no official date for Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2025 however, the event is often held in late January or February. It ought to come back as no shock then that the rumors referring to the Galaxy S25 sequence are coming fast and furious throughout the waning days of 2024.
A pair of latest rumors this week present new notion into what we are going to depend on at that event. The first is referring to one in all many colors of the Galaxy S25 Extraordinarily, and it’s sparking a typical net debate. The other components to a model new entrant throughout the Galaxy S sequence doubtlessly stealing Apple’s thunder with an earlier-than-expected debut.
Blue or Gold Gray
The first rumor comes courtesy of one in all many further prolific and proper leakers throughout the enterprise, Ice Universe, and it’s merely one in all many coloration decisions for the Galaxy S25 Extraordinarily.
The put up on X merely reveals a coloration topic with “S25 Extraordinarily” and “blue” above it.
Identical to the black and blue costume (or was it white and gold?), the provision of the argument and confusion is that the color topic appears gray to many throughout the suggestions on the put up.
Whereas we’ll need to attend for the Galaxy S25 Extraordinarily to reveal a definitive reply, a check out the Galaxy S24 Extraordinarily colors could assist to clear points up. It acquired right here in every Titanium Blue and Titanium Gray; in case you check out them side-by-side underneath, the leak appears so much nearer to the Titanium Blue shade.
The rest of the Galaxy S24 Extraordinarily colors had been Titanium Violet, Titanium Yellow, Titanium Black, Titanium Inexperienced, and Titanium Orange. Samsung consistently switches colors yearly, so whereas Titanium Blue and Titanium Gray may every return, we depend on a minimal of only a few changes; merely don’t get your hopes up for one thing too sensible as a result of the titanium growth hasn’t leaned which means.

A slim victory
The second rumor pertains to the “Galaxy S25 Slim,” a model new model throughout the Galaxy S sequence for 2025. As chances are you’ll depend on, this is ready to be a so much thinner mannequin of the flagship cellphone, one factor Apple may also be allegedly engaged on delivering with an iPhone 17 Air.
The earliest rumors referring to the S25 Slim date once more to October 31, 2024, from ETNews.com, nevertheless all earlier leaks referring to the cellphone steered it will not arrive until months after the usual Galaxy S25 flagship launch. This leak from the Korean website FNNews.com signifies that the S25 Slim will debut at a Galaxy Unpacked event at 1 p.m. EST on January 22.
Nonetheless, whereas the leak claims that pre-orders for the precept Galaxy S25 lineup will go reside on January twenty fourth ahead of a February seventh launch, there is no indication that the Slim model would ship alongside them. This suggests Samsung may mirror the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Ring, which was teased in January 2024 nevertheless did not launch until July 2024.
Particulars referring to the rumored Galaxy S25 Slim are as skinny as a result of the cellphone itself, with little larger than the declare that it will be slimmer than the prevailing lineup.

What’s subsequent?
Sooner than the arrival of telephones similar to the Galaxy S24 Extraordinarily working the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset remaining yr, I would have been terribly nervous about any producer driving for a thinner and lighter cellphone. Nonetheless, Qualcomm’s chipset turned points spherical and delivered a big leap in effectivity remaining yr, giving us barely improved effectivity with hours of additional battery life.
Whereas not everyone might want to stop that newfound battery life for a thinner cellphone, it’s a minimal of now plausible that you could be get all-day battery life with a cellphone that is decrease than 7mm thick. Now, whether or not or not Samsung or Apple might make these thinner telephones proof towards the issues that kicked off “bendgate” over 10 years up to now could very effectively be one different question.
With every Samsung and Apple, a minimal of allegedly on the verge of setting up a play for this market, it’s clear that there must be some proof of customer curiosity in thinner and lighter telephones. Evaluations that Samsung could very effectively be chopping foldable manufacturing significantly suggest that presumably slim is the model new foldable.
We have not seen any principal shifts in cellphone {{hardware}} over the previous couple of years, so 2025 may present terribly attention-grabbing for anyone on the market for a model new cellphone.
