Editorial

S25 is taking on other flagship phones with excellent (very pocketable) build, great screen, good cameras, excellent selfie and of course: DeX – the best desktop replacement software there is. This year, Samsung is focusing on the software side, adding tons of features meant to set it apart. The battery tests confirmed our expectations: S25 offers no improvement over S24’s mediocre battery life and charging performance. S25 is not bad but what a shame to have to worry about topping up your phone before going out in the evening.

PROs
just 70mm width, SnapDragon 8 Elite, 1400+nits LTPO AMOLED with HDR10+, PDAF 12MP Selfie, leading AI features, 7 years of OS updates and DeX software that can save you so much money
CONs
less-than-a-day battery endurance, no expandable storage (updated Mar 26, 2025)
