The ultra-thin Galaxy S25 Edge is finally official. Samsung unveiled the phone late on Monday, several months after teasing it at the main Galaxy S25 Unpacked event of the year.
Samsung can now brag that it launched a slim candybar phone well before Apple, even though we all know the Galaxy S25 Edge only happened because word got out that Apple was making an ultra-thin iPhone to replace the Plus version.
The excitement around the Galaxy S25 Edge in January proves there might be plenty of interest from regular consumers for such devices. I’m one of them. For months, I told you I wanted an iPhone with a display as big as the Plus and Pro Max, but without the thickness and extra weight.
The iPhone 17 Air will be that device, and I’m willing to accept the compromises Apple needs to make to release an ultra-thin phone this year.
However, I have some concerns, so it’s great to see the Galaxy S25 Edge come out before the Air. Samsung just addressed my biggest questions about ultra-thin phones, and it’s mostly good news.
