The launch date of Samsung’s forthcoming Galaxy S25 Edge smartphone has been formally revealed. The handset will be introduced on May 13 at 1 PM IST. Said to be the brand’s slimmest phone to date, the Galaxy S25 Edge has already made an appearance at a number of international events, showing its elegant design. However, while the exterior is no longer a mystery, much of its internal hardware remains unconfirmed. That said, a steady stream of leaks has provided substantial insight into its expected features, performance capabilities, and possible pricing in the Indian market.
The Galaxy S25 Edge is rumored to feature an impressively thin 6.4mm body, achieved through the use of tandem OLED technology—similar to what’s seen in Apple’s latest iPad Pro lineup. This display innovation removes the need for a traditional backlight, resulting in a slimmer and lighter device while still delivering top-tier brightness and visual quality. It’s believed the phone will sport a 6.6-inch OLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, making it appealing to those who value both aesthetics and display performance.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset from Qualcomm, which powers the Galaxy S25 and S25+ models, is anticipated to power the Galaxy S25 Edge. This would ensure excellent performance across gaming, multitasking, and everyday use. The camera setup is also drawing attention, with leaks suggesting a dual rear configuration led by a 200MP main sensor paired with a 50MP ultra-wide lens. While it may lack a dedicated telephoto lens, the imaging system seems inspired by the flagship S25 Ultra, indicating Samsung’s intent to deliver a high-end camera experience in a thinner form factor.
Battery size appears to be the one area where Samsung may have made a trade-off, with the Edge expected to include a 3,900mAh unit—slightly smaller than its siblings. However, like the rest of the S25 range, it ought to enable 25W fast charging. There’s still speculation over whether Samsung might incorporate new battery tech to offset the smaller capacity. Regardless, the company’s software optimization could help maintain solid battery life.
It is projected that the Galaxy S25 Edge will cost between Rs 1,05,000 and Rs 1,15,000 in India, which is in the middle of the S25+ and Ultra price range. As always, final specifications and pricing will be revealed during Samsung’s official announcement, so it’s wise to await confirmation before drawing conclusions.
