The highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, marking Samsung’s return to ultra-thin smartphones, has been spotted in a leaked video, revealing its sleek design and powerful internals. While Samsung has remained tight-lipped about the phone’s specifications and release date, this leak offers a tantalizing glimpse of what’s to come.
The video showcases the Galaxy S25 Edge alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 6, highlighting its remarkably slim profile. More importantly, the video provides a peek at the phone’s internal specifications via the AIDA64 app. This leak marks the first time we’ve seen the phone in action, and it looks set to revive the “Edge” legacy of bold and stylish Samsung devices.
Flagship Performance in a Slim Package
Since its initial tease at the Unpacked event, questions have lingered about the Galaxy S25 Edge’s performance and the compromises Samsung might have made to achieve its thin design. This leak suggests the S25 Edge will be a true high-end device, rivaling even the iPhone 16.
The leaked video reveals the Adreno 830 GPU, indicating the presence of Qualcomm’s flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. This is the same chipset powering the rest of the Galaxy S25 lineup and other premium Android phones like the OnePlus 13, iQoo 13, and Red Magic 10 Pro. The video also shows 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, matching the standard Galaxy S25.
Addressing concerns about battery life and heat management in such a slim device, the leak suggests a 4,000 mAh battery, identical to the Galaxy S25. This capacity has proven sufficient for a full day’s use in the standard S25, and similar performance can be expected from the Edge.
Camera and Build: Premium, Yet Different
The most notable difference lies in the camera setup. Unlike the triple-camera system on the Galaxy S25 and S25 Plus, the Edge model appears to have only two cameras. The leak indicates a 12-megapixel primary sensor. However, this might represent the pixel-binned output, suggesting a higher-resolution sensor, possibly 48 or 50 megapixels, similar to the standard Galaxy S25.
Premium Price Expected
The Galaxy S25 Edge is shaping up to be a true 2025 flagship, offering top-tier performance in an ultra-slim design. This comes at a price, however. Beyond the flagship components, the build materials also contribute to the expected premium. Reports suggest a ceramic glass rear shell, further elevating the device’s premium feel.
Considering the specifications and build materials, a starting price of around $800 or higher seems likely. This aligns with the pricing of previous slim Samsung phones, like the Galaxy A8 in 2015, which, despite not being a flagship device, launched at nearly $500. Given the current Galaxy S25 pricing, which starts at $800 and goes up to $1,300 for the Ultra model, the similarly specced S25 Edge will likely exceed the entry-level price point. The final price will depend on how much of a premium Samsung attaches to its innovative design.
