Even though it’s likely many months away from an official announcement, Samsung’s top-of-the-line Galaxy S25 Ultra is today credibly rumored to reduce its predecessor’s overall thickness, which probably means no battery size upgrade.
Because we’re not even halfway through the Galaxy S24 family’s first 12 months of availability and Samsung has yet to hold this year’s big summer Unpacked event, it definitely seems too soon to know a lot of things about a Galaxy S25 trio widely expected to go official in early 2025.
But that’s not stopping one especially prolific Samsung-focused social media leaker from (purportedly) revealing key S25 Ultra secrets ranging from major camera upgrades to more minor but still notable design revisions like the shape of the phone’s corners and now its overall “body thickness.”Thin is in!
This may seem like an eternity ago, but there was a time when smartphone manufacturers were chasing largely meaningless thinness records, cranking out ridiculous-looking devices with depth numbers of below 7, 6, or even 5mm. and matching battery capacity scores.
Fortunately for the mobile industry as a whole and (especially) consumers, those days are over, and most companies are now primarily focused on striking the best possible balance between product thinness, reduced weight, and great battery life.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is by no means chunky.
