Upcoming Smartphone Launches in May 2025: Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge
Samsung has been building anticipation around the Galaxy S25 Edge for months, even displaying it behind glass at various industry events.

The Galaxy S25 Edge is rumored to feature a 6.6-inch AMOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. Its standout characteristic, however, is its ultra-slim and lightweight build, reportedly weighing under
and measuring just 5.84 mm in thickness.
Under the hood, the S25 Edge is expected to run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. To maintain its sleek profile, Samsung may opt for a 3,900mAh battery with 25W fast charging, which could raise concerns about battery life for power users.
