- New rumors suggest that we could see the Galaxy S25 Edge on April 16
- The phone could apparently be sold in May
- A new era of super-thin phones is on our doors
On January 22, we saw three Samsung Galaxy S25 phones launched in full, but we only had the shortest looks on the Samsung Galaxy S25 EDGE – and now we could know when this fourth model will finally make its big beginnings.
According to the South Korean store Seoul Economic Daily (via @jukanlosreve), we will see the great unveiling of the Galaxy S25 Edge on Wednesday April 16 before the start of sales in May. Mark your newspapers, calendars or digital assistants fed in AI accordingly.
We also get more information from the report: apparently, the phone will be available in light blue, black and silver, and will have a thickness of about 6.4 mm – not bad compared to the 7.2 mm of the standard Galaxy S25.
The phone is set to get a mid -range price, according to this source. As before, there is also a mention of the same primary camera sensor of 200 MP of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, which will be apparently included in the Galaxy S25 Edge also.
Thin pickings
It is unlikely that it is a coincidence that we also hear rumors of an iPhone 17 air to make its debut later this year. Super-Slim smartphones could mark a new era of gadget innovation, if other manufacturers of phones and tablets follow this trend.
The previous leaks have put the thickness of the air from the iPhone 17 to 6.3 mm from front to back, which means that it could be even more rationalized than the Galaxy S25 edge. None of this is confirmed until we can see the phones, of course.
Competition with Apple is specifically mentioned in this new Seoul Economic Daily report: Samsung naturally wants to get out of its rival and grasp a market share before the 2025 iPhones have a chance to respond.
In recent days, we have also seen the unveiling of the thinnest foldable phone to date, just 4.21 mm thick: see our OPPO opinion find N5 for more details. Unfortunately, this handset will not be on sale in many regions of the world, unlike the Samsung and Apple handsets.
