Next-generation storage

One blockbuster feature that’s reported to be arriving with the Galaxy S25 is next-generation Universal Flash Storage (UFS) solutions.

This UFS technology promises data transfer speeds of up to 8GB per second.

That means way faster app launches, smoother gaming and easier multitasking.

Camera boost

Little wins over consumers quite like a camera boost.

Fortunately, the Galaxy S25 is rumoured to be getting an upgraded main camera, a 50MP ultra-wide angle camera and a new telephoto camera.

For comparison, the S24 series has a 12MP wide-angle camera – so it would be quite the upgrade.

The telephoto lens was forecast to roll out with the Galaxy S24 Ultra, but it now appears that the S25 Ultra will be the ‘chosen one’.

These types of lenses allow users to bring faraway subjects closer, with greater detail.

Battery & charging

The rumour is true, Samsung has officially announced it will offer seven years of updates to Galaxy phones.

But as Android Authority points out, seven years worth of updates means very little if your phone’s battery dies first.

That’s why onlooker seem to think the Galaxy S25 might debut Samsung’s return to removeable batteries.

This lets people replace batteries themselves – like the good ol’ days of slide-back phones, before the advent of touchscreens.

Release date

Historically, Samsung has stuck to releasing its flagship series in January or February.

Take the Galaxy S24 for example: it was announced during Galaxy Unpacked on 17 January 2024, and released on 31 January.

So, it’s likely the phone company will mirror that pattern with next year’s lineup, making the Galaxy S25 forecast to hit shelves at the beginning of 2025.

Price

There are no drastic price changes on the horizon.

Experts are anticipating the same price structure as the Galaxy S24 lineup, which rose to £799/$799, £999/$999 and £1,249/$1,299 from a year prior.
