Design 145g70
Starting with the width, it is expected that the Galaxy s25 ultra is 8,2 mm thick, thinner than the iPhone 16 Pro Max (8,3 mm). The weight of the new smartphone could be 219 grams, which would make it lighter than the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, which weighs 221 grams. For comparison, the Galaxy s24 ultra It has an official weight of 232 grams and a thickness of 8,6 millimeters.
Regarding the structure, the rumors do not indicate that the Samsung will abandon the use of titanium in the model, but an even stronger type of titanium is expected to be used in the Galaxy s25 ultra. Titanium debuted on the Galaxy S lineup in 2024 and was widely praised, providing an even more look.
3D renders suggest that the rings around the cameras could be more prominent, in a design reminiscent of the Galaxy z fold 6. However, it is not yet known whether Samsung will actually follow this design line. See below:
Despite some more technical changes that should result in more practical use in everyday life, Samsung should not change much in the aesthetics of the Galaxy S25 Ultra when we compare it with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, including the arrangement of the cameras on the back should be the same as we saw this year, being more vertical.

The flatter screen, which gave way to the screen with curved edges, should continue to be adopted by Samsung in its new smartphone. Stronger rumors cite that the display should be 6,86 inches, a small gain of 0,1 inches compared to the Galaxy S24 Ultra. The type of screen should be the same as this year's Galaxy S line: an LTPO Dynamic AMOLED 2X with QHD+ resolution.
The refresh rate should also not change: it will be variable from 01Hz to 120Hz, which adapts according to the activity performed on the smartphone for better energy savings. Another piece of information already leaked is that the screen with an anti-reflective layer, a big highlight of the Galaxy S24 Ultra, should also be the same, in addition to the model having a peak brightness of 2.600 nits.
It is known that Samsung Display, the Korean company's display division, supplied OLED s to Google to launch its line Pixel 9, which has been praised for having vibrant colors and great power performance without having to sacrifice other features. With that in mind, the model should have better screen technology and be slightly larger.
A Samsung may be reducing the bezels to make better use of the display, using more rounded corners instead of straighter corners. See the comparison with the Galaxy S24 Ultra at the bottom and the renders of the Galaxy S25 Ultra on top:
Cameras 353z5z
A Samsung The Galaxy S1 Ultra could feature a 200-inch, 25MP ISOCELL image sensor in its main camera, and a larger sensor will ensure better results. A jump from 10MP to 50MP with 3x optical zoom is also expected on the rear ultrawide lens, which would ensure better photos without losing quality, a hallmark of the Galaxy S line.
The big news in of lenses would be the second telephoto lens, which would go from a 3x optical zoom to “variable capabilities”, going from 4x to 5x and even reaching 6-7x optical zoom, which would allow for better video recording. To make this zoom variation work, Samsung You can ditch the dual play and opt for a telephoto lens with this optical zoom variation.
The front lens should not undergo any changes: the same camera for taking 12 MP photos should be present in the Galaxy S25 Ultra, especially considering that it was highly praised by experts and was on several lists of best smartphones for photography. According to the leaks this would be the camera configuration of the Galaxy s25 ultra:
- 200 MP main lens with aperture f / 1/1.4
- 50MP ultrawide lens with 3x optical zoom
- Telephoto lens with variable optical zoom up to 7x
- 12 MP front lens with aperture f2.2
A Samsung should keep 8K video recording as standard on the most expensive model. Rumors also cite that the company is redeg its camera app so that s have a better experience when capturing content, this due to OneUI 7, which we will talk about later in this text.
Processor 1z5g6g
It is expected that the Snapdragon 8 Gen4 is embedded in the device with an improved version for this smartphone that, in recent years, has delivered 30% more performance when compared to the traditional version present in devices from other brands.
Although it has not yet been officially presented by Qualcomm (this should happen by November of this year), tests of base models have hit the internet. Benchmarks showed that it has an octa-core U, with two cores (which reached 4,09 GHz) for performance and the other six cores (which reached 2,78 GHz) for performance. See below:
Such benchmark results put the chip ahead of options like the Pro A18 present in iPhone 16 Pro Max. And there's more on the way: all Galaxy S24 Ultra variants come with 12GB of RAM as standard, but Samsung is expected to put 16GB of RAM in the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
The decision to put an additional 4GB on all variants would be explained as a way of Samsung allow your smartphones to perform more AI activities without an internet connection, without having to slow down the performance power of other functions.
An update to UFS 4.1 storage technology (the Galaxy s24 ultra uses UFS 4.0) is also expected and should bring improvements in data read and write speed, which could eventually help improve overall performance.
It is not yet known what the new functions of the Galaxy A.I., but it is certain that the Samsung is preparing a major update to add even more value to its s' lives.
Battery and charging 6j5f4k
Changes to the battery are not expected by most insiders and most of the leaks Galaxy s25 ultra mention that the same 5.000 mAh capacity of the Galaxy S24 Ultra will be present in the smartphone launched next year. This was confirmed due to a certification of Chinese 3C regulatory agency (China Compulsory Certification) that Galaxy s25 ultra ed in August 2024.
The decision to maintain the same battery capacity between one generation and another is that Samsung prioritized design over delivering more battery. Still, the more efficient processor and the new OLED screen technology can deliver a longer battery life for the model on a daily basis.
Charging for the model is also unlikely to undergo any changes: Samsung is still expected to bet on the 45W wired and 15W wireless charging options. A design change no longer allows the Galaxy Watch7 and Galaxy Ultra to be recharged via Wireless PowerShare, so perhaps a design change will make this possible on the Galaxy S25 Ultra and other models launched next year.
OS, interface and updates w572i
As expected, the factory installed operating system will be Android 15, via One IU 7.0. Samsung has redesigned the entire interface with a focus on offering more customization options, such as putting all icons in dark mode. Another change already confirmed is a new control center similar to what we saw on iOS, as you can see below:
A Samsung has implemented a seven-year policy of operating system updates and security patches for its most complete smartphones, so the same should be followed in its next releases. This means that the three new Galaxy S25 should receive up to Android 22.
Other details like satellite connectivity and some mixed reality (XR) features can also be expected. Supposedly, the Samsung is developing the Galaxy S25 Ultra at the same time as it develops its first mixed reality headset. For this to work, the company would be working with Qualcomm and Google to bring a powerful new XR headset or smart glasses to market next year.
Price 4t2ce
At the time of its release, the Galaxy s24 ultra was released by BRL 11.699 in cash or BRL 12.999 in installments in its special version with 1 TB of internal storage, so don't expect a starting price below that if you're going to opt for a model with that much memory. Currently, the Galaxy s24 ultra can be purchased for R$7.829,10 in its 512 GB + 12 RAM version at Magazine Luiza.
A Samsung made an increase of R$500 between the Galaxy s23 ultra and Galaxy s24 ultra and international analysts point out that, in 2025, this may not happen, but we can only wait for official information. The decision to add more RAM, a more powerful processor and a slight change in the cameras may be a justification for this.
Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra release date 552fz
Following the current schedule of Samsung, the new ones Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra should be presented in the second week of January 2025 and reach the general market the following week. This year, the new models were presented on January 17 and reached the market on the 24th.
More information should be released soon, so stay tuned showmetech to stay up to date with all the news. But tell us in the Comment: Do you have any intentions of purchasing any of Samsung's new smartphones when they become available?
