When I first picked up the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, it was clear this wasn’t just another smartphone. At just 5.8mm thick, it’s almost 20% slimmer than the regular Galaxy S25 — and you feel that immediately.
It weighs just 163 grams, and honestly, it’s so light and sleek that it feels like you’re holding a concept phone straight out of the future. Using a bulky case on this would honestly feel like wearing boots with a tux. It’s that refined.
Battery
Alright, let’s be real — going this thin means giving something up, and for the S25 Edge, it’s mostly in the battery. With a 3,900mAh capacity, it’s a bit smaller compared to the 4,000mAh battery in the standard S25 and definitely less than the 4,900mAh in the Plus model.
But surprisingly, I still made it through a typical day — messaging, Instagram, maps, snapping pics — all without feeling like I had to babysit the battery. By bedtime, yeah, I needed to plug in, but it wasn’t a constant worry. For my usage, it’s perfectly livable.
Camera
Samsung tweaked the hardware slightly, but thankfully it didn’t mess with the photo quality. The rear setup gives you a 200MP wide and a 12MP ultrawide — same as the Ultra — and the results speak for themselves.
Selfies come out great too, thanks to the 12MP front camera that smooths skin just enough without making you look like a wax figure. Daylight photos pop, and even in low light, the results are impressive. Portraits especially shine — edge detection is on point, and the background blur feels smooth, not fake.
Design
If minimalism is your thing, you’ll love this. The design is super sleek, and the camera bump is barely there, so it rests flat on a table — no rocking. It slips into pockets like a dream and doesn’t weigh you down. After using this, most other phones feel chunky and outdated. The slim profile really elevates day-to-day comfort, and it’s one of those things you don’t want to give up once you’ve experienced it.
Verdict
All in all, I’m genuinely impressed with what Samsung pulled off here. No, it’s not the ultimate spec monster — you’re not getting the largest battery or wild zoom features. But what you do get is a refined, premium experience that’s all about portability, elegance, and real-world practicality.
If you care more about how a phone feels in your hand and fits into your life than how many cameras it has, this one’s a solid bet. Just a heads-up though — it’s so slim it can feel a bit slippery. One bad drop could ruin your day, so handle with care.
