Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Launch Potentially Delayed; Ultra-Thin Flagship Might Debut Online

The previously held Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event saw the highly anticipated ultra-thin model, the Galaxy S25 Edge, officially unveiled, generating widespread attention. While Samsung didn't explicitly announce the specific release date of this phone at the event, a Samsung executive revealed afterward that the company planned to officially launch the product around April 2025.

Now, as April 2025 has arrived, new developments have surfaced regarding the release information of this ultra-thin flagship. According to the latest leaks, the launch of the highly anticipated Galaxy S25 Edge slim phone may be delayed to May or June due to leadership changes within Samsung's MX (Mobile eXperience) business unit. The current head of the MX division, Roh Tae-moon, is now also responsible for the Device eXperience (DX) division, and therefore needs to prioritize DX business. This shift might lead Samsung to opt for an online launch to introduce the new product.

According to currently known information, this new model will be positioned in the high-end market, with a price expected to fall between the Galaxy S25+ and S25 Ultra. The 256GB version is expected to be priced at 1.5 million Korean won, approximately 7,500 RMB.

Recently leaked renders confirm that the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge will be available in three titanium color options: Jet Black, Silver, and Icy Blue. In terms of design, the phone features a vertically aligned dual-camera setup on the rear, with an overall minimalist and stylish aesthetic.

Previously released hands-on videos of a dummy model further showcased the unique appeal of this ultra-thin model. By comparing the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge dummy model with the Galaxy S25 Ultra (8.2mm thick), the S25 Edge's significantly reduced thickness is evident. The video shows that the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge has a body thickness of only 5.84mm, and the body width may also be narrower than the Galaxy S25+. The overall weight is expected to be controlled within 170g, providing a lighter and more comfortable grip.

According to leaks, the new Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge will feature a 6.7-inch Super AMOLED display with a resolution of 24001080, consistent with the screen specifications of the Galaxy S25+, and a durable titanium alloy frame.

However, it's worth noting that previous reports suggested the Galaxy S25 Edge would have an aluminum alloy side frame and a 1080p display on the front. Therefore, there are significant discrepancies between the latest leaks and previous claims, and the actual situation remains to be confirmed.

Furthermore, a new Samsung phone with the model number "SM-S937N" recently appeared on the GeekBench benchmarking platform. Benchmarking data shows that the phone achieved a single-core score of 2969 and a multi-core score of 9486. In terms of configuration, the device is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy chip and features 12GB of RAM and the latest Android 15 operating system.

Meanwhile, another Samsung phone with the model number SM-S9370 has also passed 3C certification, supporting up to 25W wired fast charging and featuring a standard 3900mAh battery. Based on related speculations, this phone is highly likely to be the Chinese version of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge.

In terms of other configurations, reports indicate that the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge's main camera will feature a 200-megapixel sensor, paired with a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens. However, the battery capacity has been reduced to 3786mAh (rated value of 3900mAh).

In addition to the updates to the phone products, Samsung's upcoming Exynos 2600 chip is also receiving significant attention. According to the latest news, Samsung is actively developing the next-generation Exynos 2600 chip. According to current plans, this chip will be equipped in the new generation of Samsung Galaxy S26 series phones. To coincide with the launch time of the new phones, the new Exynos 2600 chip needs to complete its design finalization in the mid-third quarter of 2025. However, the chip's yield rate and production capacity issues remain a focus of external attention.

The launch information of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge remains largely uncertain, and the final launch time and configuration information are still awaiting official announcement. However, it is certain that the arrival of this ultra-thin flagship will inject new vitality into the high-end smartphone market.
