This is why I wait for gsmarena to review a phone before buying it; none of the (many) reviews I checked mentioned the soft ultrawide camera or the focusing issues when taking portraits, for example. After this lukewarm review, I'm no longer considering the S25.

And for all you folks hating on the exynos on last year's model, how trash the battery life is.. literally the same rating going against the SD 8 elite..

Coming from A52S it's big upgrade for me and with some bonuses + samsung preorder promotion I've got 256GB version for 700€. If you have S24 or S23, feel free to skip to S27 (unless they really impress with S26, but I doubt), really not worth upgrade to S25.

Basically if you're on an S23 or S24. No point in changing.

Lets go, 06 Feb 2025So 1 upgrade = chip you will not notice without a timer? Wo... moreMakes you wonder how this model, like the A55, is able to handle seamless updates but the S24 and older couldn't.

Mid camera quality for $799. No thanks. There are better options available. Vivo X200 Pro is available around same price.

Is it just me, or are some of the pictures upside down? 🤔

Apple unveiled the iPhone 16 with a better glass protection (ceramic shield 2) which will also be used on the upper mid-range SE4 probably
Meanwhile, samsung still refusing to upgrade the S25 from Victus 2 to Gorilla Armour, not even to the first gen Armour, artificially creating as many differences between the base and ultra model as they can. Shame on you samsung

I'd rather have my CAD $300 SAMSUNG Galaxy A25 with microSD card and 3.5mm jack.

S24 or S23U looks better. Even though performance isn't up to date, it's still fast. S25 series is a mockery. Google and co. should use this to unveil upcoming hardware and news.

I got my 512MB for S$1020 (~US$750/~720 Euro), without plan and trade-in :)

The base version of this phone costs as much as my X200 Pro 16/512 did. The least they could've done is match the iPhone 16 Pro for battery life. Gonna get blasted by other Mini phones. Maybe they are only competing against Google and their overpriced Tensor - at which point LOL.

So 1 upgrade = chip you will not notice without a timer? Worse manual screen brightness and lower speker sound ?

With no upgrades apart from the processor, the S25 shouldn't exist. The average person doesn't need more speed, though we all appreciate better cameras and battery life.

The review is full of little negative remarks hehe. I still like this phone.
For me it's good if the public dislikes it because it means it'll drop in price faster and I can get a good deal. :-D

iPhone and pixel phones are better.

This is by no means a compact phone unless you have hands like a gorilla. Compact means can be used one-handed, and the last phone Samsung made that could realistically be used with one hand was the S10e.
