Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is now official with 5.8mm profile, 3,900 mAh battery

Following months of teasers, leaks, and rumors, Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge is finally fully official as the Korean company's preemptive strike against the iPhone 17 Air that's supposedly coming this fall.

As you may have expected, it's all about the thinness - 5.8mm, in fact. The phone weighs just 163g, and in order to reach those numbers the obvious sacrifice was in the battery compartment, where a 3,900 mAh cell will have to make do.

It charges at up to 25W via wires with an advertised 55% reached in "around 30 minutes" with a Samsung adapter (that you'll have to buy separately as there isn't one in the box). There's wireless charging support too.

The S25 Edge's 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display has QHD+ resolution, 1-120 Hz variable refresh rate, and Corning's Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 on top. It's powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, paired with 12GB of RAM and either 256GB or 512GB of storage.

On the rear there's a 200 MP main camera with f/1.7 aperture and OIS, which Samsung says is capable of "2x optical quality zoom". Next to it is a 12 MP ultrawide with f/2.2 aperture and autofocus for macro shots. Selfies get taken care of by a 12 MP camera with f/2.2 aperture.

The S25 Edge runs Android 15 with One UI 7 on top, is IP68 certified for dust and water resistance, has a titanium frame, and will be offered in "a captivating range of colors", Samsung's press release says, including Titanium Silver, Titanium Jetblack, and Titanium Icyblue. Its full measurements are 158.2 x 75.6 x 5.8 mm.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is now on pre-order, starting at $1,099 for its base 256GB version, but during the pre-order period you get a free upgrade to the higher 512GB tier. You also get a bonus if you trade in your old phone. The actual units will be delivered by May 30.
