Sort by:

The Galaxy S21 with its plastic back still looks modern compared to the S25.

    Game changer, removing options of 16GB and 24 GB RAM is bad move, need at least 16GB. Not competitive with other flagships most offer at least 16GB to 24 GB RAM, was waiting to buy now, but removing this option for more RAM is a game changer, will not buy now unless Samsung make available for more RAM in USA territory.

      I also only use the pen for taking photos. My kids use it however to make drawings using AI.

              5 years with same battery, but now 50% reused old batteries in it.
              5 Years with same display sort of
              5 Years with same charging wattage, s25 with 25w wierd, oneplus 13 with 50w WIRELESS
              5 Years with higher prices

              But it has bolder and thicker camera rings and blue colour.

                  It's laughable by saying creating wallpapers from gallery. Could use that since years. Sadly but Samsung came with old things under the event like they were new by just adding " oh AI " can, helps. I was for decades a Samsung user till Note10+. No innovation, and since the plandemic no company can come out with new things they MARKETING the USELESS AI which IS USED BY THE COMPANIES THEMSELVES BASICALLY. deleting a thing with ai on my recent OnePlus 12 from 12 times maybe can do it right 2 times decent/good. Reflection removing barely visible on picture sides. Samsung did this AI bandwagon crap badly. They should have skipped. Nobody can type a text, or mail, or a document? Need to talk to the phone to do that? MAH

                        New camera lens, New ProScaler feature, Snapdragon 8 Elite, Gorilla Armour 2, glare reduction improvements. I don't know what some of you are smoking, but "iTs tHe sAmE" isn't a good argument.

                          In the end, it turns out that Samsung used Internet Explorer to upload the videos and these are actually S22U videos that they tried to upload 3 years ago. 🤣🤣🤣

                            I reckon in the real world outside of the real world the; the vast majority of users wouldn't notice if they swapped from the S24U to the S25U. despite the Snapdragon Elite.

                            AI seems to be all they can offer this year; as in all the flagships

                              Wow. Most boring launch of this season

                                    I'm using S23+ for 2 years now and it's hard to justify the upgrade. Might wait another year, or upgrade to Ultra but I don't know.

                                      Further proof that the smartphone industry is running out of ideas to persuade people to upgrade after 1-2 years. They are clinging on to AI in order to fill the gaps in innovation.
