Samsung's 2025 Flagship Lineup Leaked: Four Foldables and the Galaxy S25 Series Unveiled

Recent leaks suggest Samsung Electronics plans a striking 2025 flagship phone lineup, encompassing four distinct foldable devices and the highly anticipated Galaxy S25 series. This update marks a comprehensive upgrade to Samsung's foldable phone range, offering consumers greater choice and advanced technological experiences.

Firstly, Samsung will refresh its iconic Galaxy Z Flip and Galaxy Z Fold series with the Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Fold7 respectively. Both phones will feature larger screens for enhanced user experience. The Galaxy Z Fold7's inner screen is rumored to increase from 7.6 inches to 8 inches, while the outer screen will grow from 6.3 inches to 6.5 inches, mirroring the Galaxy Z Fold Edition's dimensions. The Galaxy Z Flip7's inner screen will reportedly expand from 6.7 inches to 6.85 inches, and its outer screen will see a significant upgrade from 3.4 inches to 4 inches. In addition to larger screens, both the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7 may integrate upgraded Galaxy AI features.

To achieve a slimmer design, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 might forgo the digitizer (electromagnetic induction layer) under the screen. This means its built-in S Pen may require separate charging, a trade-off for improved grip and portability.

Beyond the high-end models, Samsung plans a more affordable Galaxy Z Flip FE. This phone is expected to utilize the Galaxy Z Flip6's screen to reduce costs and attract a wider consumer base to the foldable market. Industry insiders predict it will be Samsung's most cost-effective foldable. While details remain scarce, screen supply chain sources suggest two other foldables in the lineup will also feature larger screens.

Most anticipated is Samsung's first "in-folding tri-fold" model, the Galaxy Z Tri-Fold, slated for a Q3 2025 launch. This device will employ a unique G-shaped folding mechanism with two hinges, resulting in a 9.9 to 10-inch screen when fully unfolded. This innovative design should better protect the screen from impacts and scratches. However, its unique folding mechanism may necessitate a separate external screen for usability when folded. The hardware is reportedly complete, but Samsung is still evaluating costs and pricing, delaying the final release date.

Complementing the foldable updates, specifications for the three Samsung Galaxy S25 series phones have also leaked. The entire series will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy chip and debut the One UI 7 system. Notably, the Galaxy S25 series introduces an upgraded Bixby voice assistant integrated with a large AI model for smarter, more convenient human-computer interaction. Furthermore, the Galaxy S25 series will support Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.3 for enhanced connectivity speed and stability.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra will offer a 16GB RAM variant, but only in select regions. Base storage (ROM) versions (e.g., 256GB) will still only have 12GB RAM; Samsung will only provide 16GB RAM on 512GB, 1TB, or larger models.

Pricing leaks suggest that the Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra will maintain similar pricing for 256GB versions as the Galaxy S24 series, but 512GB versions will see price increases. Specifically, the 256GB Galaxy S25 is estimated at 1,155,000~1,313,400 KRW (approximately $870 - $990 USD), the S25+ at 1,353,000~1,511,400 KRW (approximately $1020 - $1140 USD), and the S25 Ultra at 1,698,400~1,856,800 KRW (approximately $1280 - $1400 USD). Compared to the S24 series, the 512GB S25 will see a 25,400 KRW increase, while the S25+ and S25 Ultra will see increases of 15,400 KRW and 15,400 KRW respectively. (Note: USD conversion is approximate and can fluctuate).

In summary, Samsung's 2025 flagship lineup boasts significant improvements in performance, AI functionality, and screen size. The Galaxy S25 series maintains pricing consistency for base models while adjusting pricing for higher-spec versions. The four foldable phones showcase Samsung's ongoing innovation in foldable technology and its aggressive approach to the future market. However, the above information is based on online leaks; final product specifications and pricing are subject to Samsung's official announcement. Consumers should stay tuned for official confirmation.
