The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 series has been the subject of much speculation, particularly regarding its pricing. While some rumors suggest a potential price hike, new information indicates that the base Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Plus models might maintain the same price point as their predecessors, at least in Europe.
According to WinFuture, the base Galaxy S25 will reportedly start at 899 euros for the 128GB variant and 959 euros for the 256GB model. These prices mirror those of the Samsung Galaxy S24. Similarly, the Galaxy S25 Plus is expected to begin at 1,149 euros for the 256GB model, rising to 1,269 euros for the 512GB version, consistent with the previous generation.

However, this pricing consistency may not be universal. Reports from South Korea suggest a potential price increase in that region. Furthermore, fluctuating exchange rates could influence regional pricing closer to the launch date. The final cost in Western markets, particularly the U.S., remains uncertain. Factors like potential import tariffs and rising component costs, including a possible 30% increase in Qualcomm Snapdragon chip prices, could impact the final consumer price.
Samsung is anticipated to unveil the Galaxy S25 series during a Galaxy Unpacked event in January. More concrete pricing details are expected to emerge closer to the official announcement.
