hello. This is Technologytodaynow. The official image of the Galaxy S25 Edge’s online unpack event, a slim model of the Galaxy S25 series, which is expected to be released on the 13th, has been leaked. Let’s take a closer look at the news.
Galaxy S25 Edge Teaser Image and Unpacked Schedule
A teaser image for the Galaxy S25 Edge’s Unpacked event has been released via Twitter by famous journalist Evan Blass. ‘Maggio’ means May in Italian, and as expected, it will be released on May 13th. The catchphrase of this teaser image is ‘Beyond Slim’, which means going beyond slim. Looking at this, the product name Galaxy S25 Edge seems like an unexpected choice.
The Galaxy S25 Edge is a model that focuses on thinness and light weight, so it was expected to simply have a slim form factor. However, the product name ‘Edge’ makes people think of a unique display rather than a thin model, so I think the product name Edge is a surprising choice.
‘Edge’ vs. ‘Slim’, the idea behind the name
I think the phrase “Beyond Slim” is a phrase that explains why this product is called “Galaxy S25 Edge” instead of “Galaxy S25 Slim.” I think it means that it is not simply thin but has more. However, I think that the S25 Edge that has been revealed now is more suitable as slim than edge.
The Galaxy S25 Edge is a model that is expected to be released in the second half of the year, targeting the lightweight iPhone, namely the iPhone 17 Air. However, according to previous rumors, the S25 Edge is expected to have a triple camera configuration with a periscope camera and a thickness of around 6.4mm, close to the Ultra model.
On the other hand, the iPhone 17 Air is rumoured to have been changed to remove the periscope camera and reduce the thickness a little more, as it is said to be released in 5.4mm.
Galaxy S25 Edge Release Date and Price Information
I think it might be the legacy of the 6.4mm model, which was the intersection of the thin thickness called ‘Edge’ and the triple camera. The Galaxy S25 Edge is available for pre-order from the 14th to the 24th, and the official launch will be on the 23rd. However, the countries where it will be released on the 23rd are limited to South Korea and China, and the global launch will be from the 30th. It has a thin thickness of 5.8mm, a 6.7-inch OLED display, and is equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. The domestic launch price is expected to be 1.5 million won for 256G and 1.63 million won for 512GB.
The Galaxy S25 Edge Unpacked teaser image has also been released, and the S25 release date is really just around the corner. I’m really looking forward to seeing if it’s going to be released according to the information so far.
