Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Leaks: Price, Specs, and Release Date Rumors Swirl

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is quickly becoming one of the most anticipated smartphones of the year, despite not being initially unveiled alongside the standard S25 models. Recent leaks and rumors are painting a clearer picture of what to expect, from its potentially revolutionary slim design to its anticipated release date and price point.

Recent leaks, including a supposed accidental reveal on Samsung's Canadian website, suggest the 256GB model of the Galaxy S25 Edge will be priced around $1,679 CAD (approximately $1,212 USD), while the 512GB variant could cost $1,859 CAD (approximately $1,342 USD). This pricing positions it between the Galaxy S25 Plus and the top-tier Galaxy S25 Ultra, suggesting a premium mid-range offering.

The Galaxy S25 Edge is making waves with its rumored slim profile. Leaks indicate it could measure just 5.8mm thick, making it Samsung's thinnest non-foldable smartphone ever, surpassing the previous record held by the Galaxy A8 (released in 2015). Despite the marginal difference compared to the standard Galaxy S25, the phone will be noticeably different in person.

Industry insider Evan Blass has provided insights into the phone placement through leaked layout designs, showcasing a device with a familiar front design mirroring its Galaxy S25 counterparts. The main difference lies in the rear camera setup, suggesting Samsung is prioritizing aesthetics for its target audience. The phone may feature a single “proper” speaker alongside the earpiece for stereo sound and retain the SIM tray’s current placement.

Beyond its design and price, the Galaxy S25 Edge is expected to pack significant power. Rumors suggest it will be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and feature advanced AI capabilities similar to its S25 siblings. A “pro-grade” 200MP camera and all-day battery capability are also anticipated.

The rumored features don’t stop there. Leaks have indicated that the S25 Edge will have 12 GB of RAM and will feature a titanium bezel and potentially Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2. The S25 Edge will feature the same cameras as the S25. Ultra.

Several sources point toward a potential unveiling date of May 13, with pre-orders opening the following day. If these reports are accurate, Samsung fans won’t have to wait much longer to learn more about this highly anticipated device.

With its focus on a slim design, premium features, and competitive pricing, the Galaxy S25 Edge appears poised to directly challenge the rumored iPhone 17 Air. Both companies seem to be targeting a similar audience of users who prioritize aesthetics, making the upcoming battle between these devices one to watch closely.
