New Galaxy S25 Edge Leaks Suggest a Smaller Battery and Mid-May Announcement

This could be one of the thinnest Galaxy smartphones ever released.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is getting closer to release, according to new leaks. Teased at a Samsung Unpacked event in January, the S25 Edge is expected to be the thinnest Android smartphone Samsung has released, resembling a thinner version of the 25 Plus.

A representative for Samsung did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Of course, there’s a trade-off. According to the latest rumors from WinFuture, the S25 Edge will ship with a smaller battery — a substantial dip compared to its S25 Plus sibling.

The S25 Edge likely has something to do with the rumored iPhone 17 Slim that’s set to be released later this year. It appears that thin is in again, although CNET reporter David Lumb wonders who exactly is asking for a phone that’s this slender.

Earlier reports said that the Galaxy S25 Edge would be released in the first half of the year, but an X post from industry leaker Evan Blass pointed to a May 13 announcement. That post initially showed what appeared to be a promotional image from Samsung with the May 13 date, but the image has since been removed.

Specs leak, including a small battery

The latest leak from German tech blog WinFuture points out that the thinness of the S25 Edge will be coming with a significantly reduced battery capacity, coming in at 3,900 mAh. For comparison’s sake, the Galaxy S25 Plus ships with a 4,900-mAh battery and is only 1.45mm thicker than the Edge.

If the leaks are accurate, the phone will have a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 2,130×1,440 wrapped in a titanium body. It ships with the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, and offers 12GB of RAM, and 256GB or 512GB storage variants. Expandable storage is more than likely not included with the handset.

It’ll reportedly house a two-camera setup, including a 200-megapixel primary camera and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide. There aren’t specifics on the phone’s front-facing shooter, but it doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibility for it to retain the 12-megapixel camera found on the S25 Plus.

The phone would come in at a relatively light 163 grams and IP68 ingress protection rating.
