The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is not selling well, insiders say

20 June 2025
Also, the company will try to stock up on next-gen foldables for the US market before the tariffs hit.

Sort by:

It's not even slim anymore after a case and screen protector and that's the funniest part

Realistically, the price should've been around $700, no more

    ProMaxUltraAreBricks, 20 Jun 2025Understandable. They needed to replace the Plus model and ... moreOf course, because as long as the BETTER Plus model exists, there is no reason to get this. They have to delete the better device from the market on order to sell something worse, that makes sense.

      Sa71000, 20 Jun 2025Carrying brick with carpet tunnel syndrome is stupid. Thi... moreA phone with worse battery life than the average 3 year old used phone, and worse cameras than that of those isn't something that worths the price that this has.

      This is definitely not the way.

        Bob the web dev, 20 Jun 2025You can, just not from apple or Samsung.Nope

          Shame

            It is really nice mobile when you hold in hand. One need to experience.

            It is for office people, not for everybody; for people who use mobiles as mobile and communication device. With thin back cover and toughen glass, total weight does not go beyond 185 gm with 6.7 inch screen device.

            My S23 ultra goes up to 262 gm. I know battery is possible only weak point for this, but I think second iteration will come with silicon carbon battery with improved total capacity somewhere around 4700-4900 mAh.

            Camera is good enough for 4 x zoom; considering the 200 MP primary camera with relatively better lens.

            And now price, yes, it should have been between S25 and 25+ rather than above S25 + or just same as of S25 +.

            Let's have some thin and lite phone too just as a variation too...

            Thanks a lot.

              As if it will sell when it costs a fortune while offering very little

                Understandable.
                They needed to replace the Plus model and add more battery capacity using silicon-carbon tech in the first place.

                  Where's the point of buying the S25 edge if he S25plus and ultra offer better value for money?

                  A midrange vanilla S25 is missing in Samsung's lineup something like Apple did with the 16e. A Galaxy S25e: same size as S25 but with mirdrange CPU and less capable camera set up but with bigger battery (5000-5500mAh).

                      Milkooo, 20 Jun 2025Big, light, with a good battery, yes. Not thisYou can’t have your cake and eat it too

                        potato4k, 20 Jun 2025First, companies like Samsung controls their inventory rela... moreAnd your point is? They've already announced internally that it's not selling well, so your point is, what? They're going to sell more because they can quickly reduce production? Companies like Samsung and Apple, when they're getting away with it, throw it in your face and make sure everyone knows it! That's why you didn't see much advertising around this device.

                          Nobody was begging for a super thin phone, and if they already decided to produce one, they should have waited until they were comfortable with silicon/carbon battery tech.

                          This phone arrived ahead of the battery that would have made it a compelling option - at least for those in the niche that are impressed by such thin designs.

                          Oh well. Maybe next generation...

                            Why did Samsung though that a phone that is very expansive, slim but when you use a protector case is not so slim anymore, with a small battery, not the best camera system, will sell well?

                              First, companies like Samsung controls their inventory relatively tight. So reducing production target is not an indicator of anything in a JIT production model. It can simply indicates that they made enough for their channels. Apple does this everytime, ramping up production quickly and ramping down as fast.

                              And at this high end segment, volume is not important. The key point is ASP. Volume may go down, but if ASP is up, then it's a okay, as it means margins and revenue are maintained or improved.

                                Samsung has problems with S series 5 modelnow, fold and flip.
                                The market department has to joint design to produce mobile for the target customers with correct features and price

                                  Just give the s25 with 6000 mah battery. We don't want pluses or ultras. S25 is perfect but leaves me battery anxious. Next please put a 50% bigger battery in the base model.

                                    Samsung is slipped from the expectations for releasing slipped variant in S25 lineup, cause i don't think pressing outdated skinny Li-ion to make the dimensions thinner than leaf was a good idea.

                                      BocchiTheRockHard, 20 Jun 2025Most people you see on the street that have a flagship don&... moreThere's an explanation! They wanted to launch it before Apple. I'm sure that before Apple even announced its plans to release a thin iPhone, Samsung hadn't even considered that idea. So, the day Apple introduced the thin iPhone, you'd see this kind of post on Samsung's social media in the afternoon. We did it first.

                                        This phone because of software it's doing great for whole day usage even at 3900..
                                        Idea it's great to be slim...Personally I enjoying every single day with it .
                                        In camera department u can have up to X4 zoom and you will feel you got telephoto...
                                        But then if you want more than 10 zoom it's a problem..
                                        They should go the phone going to 20 or 30 times at least in this price point ..
                                        Samsung needs to upgrade the battery to last more charging cycles first and second bit more capacity.
                                        If 25 ultra got 5500 to 5700 it will be enought to beat all others.
                                        Edge should have something about 5000 with the new type..
                                        But in the end of the day, if they give me same telephoto like S25 plus then better not...
