Samsung Galaxy S25, S25 Ultra thickness confirmed by IceUniverse

Samsung is working on the Galaxy S25 series, and today we got confirmation of another important detail of the new phones – their thickness. Noted leakster Ice Universe confirmed previous speculations that the Galaxy S25 will be 7.2 mm thick, while the Galaxy S25 Ultra will measure 8.2 mm.

The camera lenses of the S25 (and likely the S25+) will protrude just 1.8 mm from the body, while the S25 Ultra would be 2.4 mm thick. In comparison, the iPhone 16 Pro Max is 4.3 mm from the top of the lens to the edge of the frame.

The 7.2 mm body will make the Galaxy S25 the thinnest Galaxy S flagship in a decade; the last time we had such a thin phone was the Galaxy S6, launched in April 2015. The 8.2 mm body of the Ultra is also a milestone for the series, even if it dates only back to February 2020.

We expect the Galaxy S25+ to also have a 7.2 mm body, in line with the similar thickness of the vanilla and Plus versions in the past five years.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S25 lineup in January. Rumors are that the Ultra will keep the same main and telephoto cameras as its predecessor and upgrade only the ultra-wide shooter.

The phone is also likely to be the only device in the lineup to exclusively use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, but this might change because we heard similar rumors last year about the S24 series.

Aspect ratio needs to be changed to 20:9.

Sure does matter. A 10mm thin phone would be much harder to bend than a 7.2mm thin phone.

Here I disagree, thicker phone plus case makes it even thicker. So thin phone plus case will make its size same as regular one, so anyway it is a win, main question is how resistant to bending, if thinner is less resistant then better to make it t...
