The Samsung Galaxy S25 series has had its full specifications leaked once again, and while some improvements are notable, the updates largely build upon the foundation laid by the Galaxy S24 series. Here’s a breakdown of what to expect:
Galaxy S25 Ultra
The Ultra model leads with a 50MP ultra-wide camera, a significant boost over its predecessor, though this upgrade is becoming more common in mid-range devices. It retains the 200MP main camera, 50MP 5x periscope lens, 10MP 3x telephoto, and 12MP selfie camera, with AI enhancements purportedly improving color and brightness by 43%.
New features include:
- Support for log video recording, enhancing dynamic range.
- Smoother transitions between camera lenses.
- An “Audio Eraser” tool to reduce noise in video recordings.
The Ultra sticks to 12GB of RAM (in Europe) with storage options of 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. Its battery remains at 5,000mAh with 45W wired charging.

Galaxy S25+
This model sees few changes beyond the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. It features a 6.7-inch QHD+ flat screen, 12GB of RAM, and storage options of 256GB or 512GB. The battery capacity is 4,900mAh, also supporting 45W wired charging.
Galaxy S25
The base model, with its compact 6.2-inch 1080p+ display, now offers 12GB of RAM as standard, addressing a long-standing criticism. However, base storage still starts at 128GB, with options for 256GB and 512GB. The 4,000mAh battery supports only 25W wired charging, lagging behind even Samsung’s A-series.
Camera and Software Enhancements
Both the S25 and S25+ retain the same camera hardware as their predecessors but benefit from the upgraded Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and AI-driven improvements for image processing.
Dimensions and Weight
The series brings slight reductions in weight and thickness compared to the S24 lineup:
- Galaxy S25: 162g, 7.2mm thick (down from 167g, 7.6mm).
- Galaxy S25+: 190g, 7.3mm thick (down from 196g, 7.7mm).
- Galaxy S25 Ultra: 218g, 8.2mm thick (down from 232g, 8.6mm).
While the leaks suggest meaningful refinements, they also highlight missed opportunities for more transformative upgrades, leaving some fans questioning whether the S25 series represents enough of a leap forward.
