As we approach the new year, hype for Samsung’s latest flagships is increasing. We have witnessed several leaks and rumors about the upcoming phones. A new report suggests Samsung Galaxy S25 series would offer a vibrant display and power efficiency.
According to Digitimes, the Samsung Galaxy S25 series could improve display color performance and power management. The report also highlights enhanced recording capabilities, potentially targeting the iPhone’s lead.
Display:
Rumors say the S25 series will use the same OLED panel as the S24 series. While Apple and Google opted for the latest OLED with M14 material set, Samsung is reportedly skipping the new tech.
Meanwhile, the latest report brings a piece of good news, at least for those expecting M14 OLED. The models are expected to sport enhanced screens that deliver vibrant color production.
Despite using the M13 OLED, Samsung’s upcoming flagships are slated to offer an elevated experience. The expansion of anti-reflective screen to all models would be worth welcoming.
Battery:
Samsung apparently sticking to the same battery decision as the S24 series. The Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra will likely pack 4000mAh, 4900mAh, and 5000mAh battery, respectively.
The company has offered slightly improved battery capacity on Galaxy S24’s non-Ultra models. However, the upcoming Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra are unlikely to get any changes.
Samsung could be offering better power management on the next-gen Galaxy S phones. This will offer improved battery life on the new phones so you can use them more without charging much.
Snapdragon 8 Elite will help the Galaxy S25 series on the battery front. The chipset is manufactured using 3nm process technology, which will benefit users with longer battery life.
Launch Date? Samsung could launch the Galaxy S25 series in late January 2025, meanwhile, you can stay updated with our extensive Galaxy S25 series coverage here.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is tipped to launch with 16GB RAM. We have been hearing about a significant RAM upgrade on the next Ultra flagship. Now, a credible source disclosed the possible storage configuration.
Leaker Jukanlosreve revealed that two Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra variants could have 16GB of RAM. The base variant of the Galaxy S25 Ultra may still get 12GB of RAM, but the pre-order promotion could address customer concerns about RAM upgrades.
The 256GB model could get 12GB of RAM, while the 512GB and 1TB variants may feature 16GB of RAM. It’s a notable upgrade that the next Samsung flagship is bringing as part of offering a more reliable and faster AI task processing.
- 12GB RAM / 256GB storage
- 16GB RAM / 512GB storage
- 16GB RAM / 1TB storage
Earlier this year, Samsung launched the Galaxy S24 Ultra. This flagship comes with 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB storage variants. However, all models are paired with 12GB of RAM, and it was a big reason for Samsung to face criticism.
As AI and generative tasks demand more resources, upgrading to 16GB will significantly enhance multitasking and efficiency.
As AI and generative tasks demand more resources, upgrading to 16GB RAM will significantly enhance efficienc. Samsung’s flagships come with top-notch hardware and stunningly optimized software. 16GB RAM in the S25 Ultra will offer outstanding experiences.
Samsung could announce the Galaxy Unpacked in mid-January next year. The event is expected to be held in late January, while release is scheduled for early February. If you pre-order, Samsung could offer a free storage upgrade.
That said, consumers pre-ordering the 256GB model will get the 512GB model delivered. The same case with the 512GB model, bringing you the 1TB variant. So next year, you could get 16GB RAM model at the cost of 256GB variant.
Samsung is unlikely to use Exynos 2500 in the Galaxy S25 series. Qualcomm has increased the prices of the Snapdragon 8 Elite due to upgrades. However, MediaTek could help Samsung keep on evolving flagships as Snapdragon price soars.
Recently, it was reported that the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 could be pricier than the Snapdragon 8 Elite. Samsung Foundry is in trouble and there’s no hope for Exynos 2600 to be used in 2026’s Galaxy S26 flagship smartphones.
Chipset price makes a great impact on smartphone pricing. Samsung managed to freeze pricing by utilizing Exynos in previous flagships. However, the game has changed as consumers don’t want Exynos and Snapdragon continues to be pricier.
Korean media (via Jukanlosreve) believes that MediaTek could help Samsung flagships keep on evolving further amid pricier Snapdragon. If Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 is to be exclusively used in the S26 series, we may not see any display and camera upgrades.
Chinese phone makers aggressively utilize the Dimensity chips, that decently rival the latest Snapdragon chipset. Exynos is uncertain but MediaTek is doing a pretty good job with its flagship Dimensity chips.
In the case of no Exynos, opting for Dimensity in the Galaxy S series is a better alternative. MediaTek’s prices are way too lesser than Qualcomm’s. Meanwhile, flagship Dimensity chips offer better performance than Samsung’s Exynos.
Samsung skipped upgrading the display and zoom camera on the S25 Ultra, as far as the rumors are concerned. It could be forced to replace the same pursuit on the Galaxy S26 series otherwise, the price freeze would be unavoidable.
