An insider says the thin Galaxy S25 Slim phone, which will rival the iPhone 17 Air, will feature an Ultra camera.

As the excitement around Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S25 release, the community was ready for the South Korean company to go all-in on Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and offer every S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra with the advanced system-on-chip. Unfortunately, the latest benchmarking results may leave many in Europe frustrated.

With the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra expected for early release next year, the company can't afford to again to glaze over the features of Samsung DeX.

With a Galaxy S25 Slim reportedly in development, Samsung seems to be saying that any phone Apple makes, it can make thinner. And should the rumored addition to Samsung's Galaxy S25 lineup surface next year as leakers have suggested, 2025 could turn out to be a big year for slimmed-down phones.

A device that could be the fourth Galaxy S25 model has appeared in the GSMA IMEI database, lending more credence to Galaxy S25 Slim rumors.

While the slimmer Galaxy S25 is expected to pack a strong main camera, details on its secondary lenses are still coming to light. It’s yet to be seen if they’ll match the rumored specs of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which is said to have a 50MP ultrawide sensor and a smart variable telephoto lens that makes a second telephoto camera unnecessary.

Samsung could announce four Galaxy S25 models in 2025. That fourth phone, the "Galaxy S25 Slim" is designed to take on Apple's upcoming "iPhone 17 Slim."
