I never liked a phone that I would never buy so much.
The Galaxy S25 Edge is against every common lesson that the history of the smartphone has taught so far – that is, small battery phones will inevitably disappoint consumers. Even if they are as compact as users dream. Even if they are impossible.
But, dude, what Galaxy S25 Edge Let me realize how much I know how much I know about taking more and more thick flagships in my pocket! And oh I wish the battery got a little better!

Galaxy S. 25 Edge Design and Display
To appreciate it Lou You have to hold it

With an extremely thin titanium body, Galaxy S25 Edge You are thin and lightweight than you expected.
So much so that even critics of the whole idea lift it and you can see their visual reactions to this new form element.
But the numbers are very difficult to explain: yes, S25 Edge The S25 plus (20 % thin) is 5.8 mm thick vs. 7.3 mm, which you can discuss is already thin. And certainly, S25 Edge Weight is 163 grams vs. 190 grams of S25 Plus (15 % light). But it feels like the difference is even bigger.
My new sword (Image Fonina)
S25 Edge Clean colors come in the choice, but nothing is more clear or crazy. I don’t mind this passion, but I know many people who want more dynamic colors on the phone.

Of the three colored (titanium jet black, titanium iSileo and titanium silver), one of the blue looks like it stands the most, but even a little lighter, which is much more different from the silver model.

Slim theme continues in inboxing – there is no extra bulk here because you just have a charging cable in the box, but no charging brick.

6.7 -inch OLED screen proud of 1440p resolution and 120 Hz variable refresh rate, Galaxy S25 Edge Mainly all the marks of the Galaxy S25 Plus.
However, Samsung does not include Gorlala Armor Coating from Ultra, which has been our favorite screen in the last two years. It is a matter of regret considering its high cost S25 EdgeBut Samsung just wants to save it for his prerequisite flagship.
We measured the maximum sparkle of approximately 2,400 nets S25 EdgeWhich is equal to that Galaxy S. 25 Plus And the ultra, and actually the iPhone 16 is slightly higher than the Pro Max, so the external use is still very good on the edge.
It can also fall to less than 1 NIT for use of gold.
When it comes to biometrics, we have a usual ultrasonic fingerprint scanner and 2D image -based face recognition. Fingerprint reader industry is one of the best people and we have no problem with this S25 Edge.
Galaxy S. 25 Edge Camera
Most good, but board has no telephoto camera

Galaxy S25 Edge The camera does not fulfill any surprises.
The phone uses the same 200 MP main camera sensor such as the Galaxy S25 ultra (this is a slightly larger sensor in the S25 Plus), while the ultra -wide camera is 12 MP One (the same in the S25 plus). So we have a combination of Ultra and Plus sensors, which has a significant lack of telephoto camera.
Nevertheless, we like the zoom quality enough to have a reasonable amount of detail on 2x and 4X in this important sensor and photos (you can go more, but the details are significantly reduced).
Portrait format LOO, you only have 1x and 2x format, which is understandable, but if you like portrait photography, we strongly recommend getting a phone that has a 3x option for this classic 85 mm look.
Main camera
Photos on Galaxy S25 Edge These specific Samsung colors that are a little on the dynamic aspect, even if it is not too clear in the pictures of these rain days.
Zoom Quality (Digital Zoom)
Since Samsung processing has an extra defeat, you can see that these images can be converted to their very detailed form of fading dirt and you need to appreciate the software work behind it.
But this is not a match for the photos captured on the telephoto lens. The quality is decent on 2X and 4X, but I won’t go far beyond that and at 10x you can dramatically see the drop -off in detail.
Extremely wide camera
Ultra -wide camera is slightly less than important because there are some other problems with the reduction of details and the color and occasional highlights.
Front camera
Selfies on Galaxy S25 Edge Looks good, there is no real difference than the S25 series.

Galaxy S. 25 Edge Performance & Benchmark
Snapdragon 8 elite with very low impact on performance

Under the sticks of S25 EdgeWe get the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite, the leading chip set of Android and this is good news.
Although it was expected that Samsung would disable a core of this chip set, it does not look like it does not look and it looks like we have a standard 8 -core version. However, the benchmark scores are still a bit less S25 Edge Compared to the S25 Plus.
CPU Performance Benchmark:
We see a 10 % reduction in the Gack Bench compared to the S25 Plus.
GPU’s performance
Interestingly, we see another major difference of 16 % at the start of the graphics performance, but after 20 minutes of running a 3D mark tension test, we can see that S25 Edge Does not shatter too much. The performance difference with the S25 Plus is actually closing over time.
You have a sharp ufs 4.0 storage S25 EdgeAs you expect, and in the base model it has 256 GB (with 512GB of storage option).
Galaxy S. 25 Edge Software
Galaxy S25 Edge The same software runs like the remaining S25 series – with an UI 7 Android 15.
And it has a dex, in which case you are living under a rock, the ability to monitor your phone, connect with the mouse and keyboard, and mainly use it as your central work station. This is a welcome addition that you will probably use rarely, but when you do – you will appreciate it.
A UI is one of the better Android skins there and the latest over hall has brought it closer to iOS, and some people will argue that this is the best Android UI there. I can definitely see his appeal too, but I really wish Wish that the Samsung interface works to improve the flow as there is a slight micro -stutter right now when using the navigation.
You also receive a promise of Samsung for a seven -year OS upgrade and security patch. We do not doubt that, but we have seen a delayed rollout A UI 7 The old model and can’t help but wonder whether S25 Edge Will not meet the same fate with the release of the next big UI.
Galaxy S. 25 Edge Battery
It’s both good and bad
S25 Edge Comes with a 3,900 mAh battery, which is less than a small Galaxy S25 model. And it looks like a harmful statement.
So how bad is it really?
Battle Battery Test results:
Show battery tests in our home S25 Edge Really remains less than small Galaxy S. 25 And a whole hour of less screen time less than the S25 Plus model of similar size.
It’s both good and bad – a worse battery life than compact Galaxy S. 25 Not very good, but at least it’s not worse.
Draw your conclusions based on the scores, but let me take advantage of it: S25 Edge If you don’t use the camera too much (or game, but I suspect that many gamers will be buying it first) then you will continue the whole day. And this will be a whole day in the first year of your own.
But then, you want to go on a weekend. You may want to take some more pictures. You have to use the mapping a little more. And battery life becomes a problem rapidly.
If you think this will be a problem and you don’t like to take the power bank, this phone is probably not for you. And I’m afraid that “your group” here is very big.
I am among those who are very happy with the idea of a very thin phone. Still I was a little upset when I saw S25 Edge When I was taking pictures of sunrise, fall at 50 % by 10am. Do you really value thin? They Too much? This is the real question here.

With 25 W charging, S25 Edge No record is breaking but it will be completely upset in more than an hour, and we’re fine with it. Certainly, 45W would be good (S25 Plus), but I don’t think 25W show is to stop.
You also get 15W wireless charging speed, which is even less. And no, there is no magnet (if you are expecting a miracle).
Galaxy S25 Edo Audio Quality and Hoptics
Out of audio quality S25 Edge The loudspeaker is amazingly good, and we say surprisingly because we expect the quality reduction from the S25 Plus, but really none of it. The sound comes out loud and when it is not known to the industry, you still get good quantities and clear mids, so it gives our thumbs. Hoptics are the same as in the rest of the S25 series, which says it is okay, but not so tight and not in accordance with the interface, such as One Plus 13 devices.
Do you buy it?

Liking is really easy Galaxy S25 Edge And it is really difficult to recommend it.
What it does it meets the expectations of a good slim phone: it has a beautiful strong body, it has the main camera of the S25 ultra, and it has a UI that many people like.
But it does not draw a miracle of the battery, and as a buyer you should not only eliminate this concern. But if you are fully aware of this shortcoming, in my opinion S25 Edge You will make you happy with the light weight of the wings, which refuses to expect expectations and its very thin body. It is a viewer and it counts something in a monoton smartphone market.
