The first thing that catches your attention about the new Samsung Galaxy S25 is that it opts for a design that continues to differ from the previous generation, as it still has a flat front with almost no frames crowned by a hole in the screen where the selfie camera is housed and a flat back with the cameras located on independent islands .
Thus, the main aesthetic change of the Galaxy S25 compared to the previous model is that it has flat bezels that are more symmetrical and thinner than those of the Samsung Galaxy S24, something that gives it an even more premium look.See offer

In terms of features, the new Samsung Galaxy S25 inherits the screen from its predecessor, since this new model continues to have a 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X LTPO type panel with a Full HD + resolution of 2,340 x 1,080 pixels and a variable refresh rate of up to 120 hertz . The main improvement of this screen compared to the Galaxy S24 is that it is protected with the new Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 glass , which is more resistant to bumps and scratches.

Without a doubt, one of the great novelties of the new Samsung Galaxy S25 is that it is equipped with a modified version of Qualcomm’s most advanced processor to date, a Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy that is more optimized for AI and that improves heat dissipation by 40% compared to the standard chipset . In addition, this chip is accompanied by 12 GB of RAM and three internal memory options of 128 GB, 256 GB and 512 GB .
If we focus on its photographic section, the new Samsung Galaxy S25 has also evolved compared to the 2024 model, since it mounts a triple rear camera module where the main protagonist is a 50-megapixel wide-angle main sensor that has a 2x optical zoom and OIS (optical image stabilization) . This main camera is well supported by a new 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle sensor that acts as a «macro» sensor and by a 10-megapixel telephoto sensor that has a 3X optical zoom .
In addition, the rear cameras of the new Samsung Galaxy S25 incorporate 10-bit HDR recording , more advanced noise reduction, and new space-time filters thanks to which the sensors will be able to identify moving objects .
As far as the front camera is concerned, the Galaxy S25 inherits the configuration from the Galaxy S24, as it continues to rely on a 12-megapixel sensor with an f/2.2 focal aperture, Dual Pixel and PDAF .

Something similar happens with autonomy, since the new Samsung Galaxy S25 continues to mount a 4,000 mAh battery that promises to allow you to get to the end of the day without having to go through the charger and that has a «fast» charge of 25 W and a wireless charge of 15 W.
Another of the great advances of the Samsung Galaxy S25 is found in its software, since it comes with Android 15 running under One UI 7.0 , an updated customization layer that stands out for including a new user interface that will allow you to interact in a totally different way with Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Additionally, by integrating AI agents with multimodal capabilities, this new version of Galaxy AI is able to interpret text, voice, images and videos and allows you to have an interaction with it as natural as if you were talking to a friend and includes an updated version of Google’s «Circle to Search» function, which can now quickly recognize phone numbers, emails and URLs on the screen, allowing you to call, send an email or visit a website with a single tap .

Also, thanks to Samsung’s new AI, you’ll be able to get more out of Gemini, as the Big G’s AI chatbot is now able to interact fluidly with both Samsung and Google apps, as well as third-party apps like WhatsApp or Spotify . A practical example of this interaction is that the user will be able to search for their favorite team’s season schedule and add it to the Samsung calendar with a simple voice command .
But that’s not all, as the Galaxy S25’s new AI personal data engines also include innovative features that securely analyze data to offer you highly personalized experiences based on your preferences and usage patterns. Thus, thanks to these new personalized experiences, you can search for an old photo in the Gallery using natural language or receive daily suggestions with Now Brief, an innovative tool that offers you relevant information at all times and can be accessed through a new widget called “Now Bar” located on the lock screen of the device.
In addition, like the Galaxy S24, this new Galaxy S25 also has 7 years of Android operating system updates and security updates guaranteed .
As for the rest of the features of the Samsung Galaxy S25, it should be noted that it has extensive connectivity with 5G SA / NSA, Dual SIM, Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC , GPS (A-GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, QZSS), UWB (Ultra Wide Band), a USB-C 2.0 port and an ultrasonic fingerprint reader under the screen and that it has IP67 protection for water and dust resistance and two stereo speakers compatible with Dolby Atmos .
