$799, $999, $1,299. Those are the starting prices for the Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra, the three phones Samsung announced at its Galaxy Unpacked event in San Jose, California, on January 22, 2025. Pre-orders opened the same day, and the phones reach buyers on February 7.
All three run a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip and One UI 7, which is built on Android 15. Samsung is promising seven years of OS and security updates. Google Gemini is built in, and Samsung showed it connecting to apps such as Calendar, email and the browser.
Ultra gets the big changes
The S25 Ultra has a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display that peaks at 2,600 nits, a 200MP main camera and an upgraded 50MP ultrawide. It carries 12GB of RAM, storage up to 1TB, and a 5,000mAh battery with 45W charging. It records Log video.
Samsung rounded off the corners. The phone is 8.2mm thick against 8.6mm on its predecessor and weighs 218g against 232g. The front glass is Corning Gorilla Armor 2, which Samsung says is the industry’s first anti-reflective ceramic glass for mobile devices. Four titanium finishes are on offer: Silverblue, Black, Whitesilver and Gray.
S25 and S25+
The base S25 has a 6.2-inch Full-HD+ screen and a 4,000mAh battery with 25W charging. The S25+ steps up to a 6.7-inch QHD+ display and a 4,900mAh battery that charges at 45W. Both have the same rear setup: a 50MP main sensor, a 12MP ultrawide and a 10MP telephoto.
Every model in the range has 5G and IP68 water resistance.
