Samsung
- Design: At just 5.8mm thick and weighing 163g, it’s significantly thinner than the Galaxy S25 (7.2mm, 162g) and S25+ (7.3mm, 190g).
- Display: 6.7-inch AMOLED panel (1440×3120) with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and up to 2,600 nits of peak brightness. That’s the same screen size as the S25+.
- Build: Titanium frame and Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 for a more durable body compared to the aluminum-framed S25.
- Camera: Dual rear cameras, including a 200MP main sensor and a 12MP ultra-wide lens. Unlike the S25 and S25+, the Edge doesn’t include a telephoto lens to maintain its slim profile.
- Performance: The same Snapdragon 8 Elite chip that’s used in the Galaxy S25 series. New to the S25 Edge is a thinner vapor chamber for steady heat dissipation.
- Storage & RAM: 256 GB or 512 GB of internal storage with 12 GB of RAM.
- Battery and charging: 3,900mAh battery with 25W wired charging and wireless charging. This is a notable drop from the 4,900mAh battery in the S25 Plus.
- Software and updates: Android 15 and One UI 7, with seven years of OS and security updates.
- AI integration: Now Brief and Now Bar support third-party apps to provide reminders and suggestions during activities like commuting or dining. Gemini Live capabilities allow for sharing the screen or camera for interaction with Gemini in real-time.
