FCC certification confirms some Samsung Galaxy S25 series details

27 November 2024
Samsung seems to be neglecting the vanilla Galaxy S25.

Sort by:

I'm worried about Samsung. Their decisions are getting worse and worse every year. Are they being sabotaged? The UI changing for the worse, the wearables turning into Apple copycats, the flagship phones losing features generation after generation, none of this makes sense without malicious plants inside.

        Yet another downgrade, I miss 2017-18 so much

          The Android Freak, 3 hours agoNot possible even in wildest dreams. All the vanilla S models have been 16x gr.

          Other flagships used to be lightweight too and now many are 200-220gr. It's a devolution, regression in my mind. I don't care about stainless steel frames or exotic materials. Stick with plastic and aluminum.

            could that mean the base s25 will use exynos and not sd 8 elite?

                One Plus 11 has it, One Plus 12 has it. Moto Edge+(2023) has it.

In its release, the vanilla S25 will be the priced similarly to a Find X8 in our country, no way would I get the S25 over it.

                        Is it high end or midrange 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

                          Samsung is the new Apple when it comes to innocation (rather, the lack of innovation). The stepmotherly treatment and crippling that these vanilla flagships get - it hurts. Going at this rate, its better if Samsung discontinues their base S-flagships and give us a compact A5x series with 6.1 - 6.3 inch screens. It will serve two purposes - those looking for a compact phone and Samsung's ecosystem will spend less and get a decently specced upper-midrange, and those looking for compact flagships can switch brands to get much better value and features

                            Looks like S25 will be a joke against X200 Pro Mini and Xiaomi 15...

                              "the vanilla Galaxy S25 will be missing the UWB"

                              Why? It's built in this time in the Snapdragon 8 Elite, it doesn't require any other chip. They are already going through the certification process for the others and know what it takes. This seems to be an intentional limitation to push users to the more expensive versions.

                                If I were to buy another Galaxy S, I'd be looking for the vanilla version. What I like is that it's lightweight and powerful. The best travel companion. If they can get the slim version to be 160gr then I might try that one.

                                  The only point for standard S series is for it's more compact size.

                                    TechDevil, 6 hours agoI just hope this year the s25 series fails badly. Otherwise... moreNot a solution, bad sales of Base S phone is reason to drop it.

                                    Drop the smallest Android phone on the market that has any actual OS support.

                                    They dropped 11" with Tab S10 series while Tab S9 sold good, so if they are that easy about it, bad sales of smaller phone are a reason to drop it, not fix it.

                                    It is sickening

                                      So another downgrade on an updated model. Well, pretty standard for Samsung after all.

                                        And to make matter worse, Tab S9 series with same chip got a update that made wifi 7 available (I have a Tab S9 and tested it, it is real Wifi 7)
