I tested the Galaxy S25 Edge — here's why thin is most definitely in

1 week ago | androidcentral.com | Nirave Gondhia

Companies hope that this year, like last year, will be remembered for AI breakthroughs in smartphones. However, there's another trend this year that I expect we'll not forget: the era of the thin phone.

One of the most consequential phones of the year is undoubtedly the Galaxy S25 Edge. Samsung’s new thin phone is designed to offer the best of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, S25 Plus, and regular Galaxy S25 in a much thinner and lighter body. Samsung first teased its new thin phone at the Galaxy S25 launch in January, and it was clear then that the goal was to beat Apple to the market. Apple has long been rumored to launch the thinnest iPhone in years, the iPhone 17 Air, later this year.

If you’re looking for one of the best folding phones, the new Motorola Razr 2025 is likely high on your list. It offers the iconic Motorola experience at a more affordable price than its siblings, and as I discovered in our Razr 2025 review, it still feels just as premium, especially thanks to its larger battery. However, folding phones won’t be for everyone, and while the Razr 2025 features cutbacks in well-done ways, it’s still not as premium as its more illustrious siblings.

Table of Contents Thin is officially IN, and Samsung has laid a marker with the new Galaxy S25 Edge. At just 5.8 mm thick, it’s the thinnest modern smartphone, and at 163 grams, it’s lighter than all the best phones you can buy right now.

After months of leaks and teasers, Samsung unveiled the ultra-thin Galaxy S25 Edge at an event this evening. We’ve been waiting for the latest addition to the Galaxy S25 family for months, especially as we didn’t have much information about the key feature: its thickness.

Samsung has been quite a tease with its upcoming razor-thin (only, figuratively!) phone, first showcasing it at the Unpacked event back in January.

Although the Edge was set to launch in mid-April, it was pushed ahead by a few weeks, with the latest rumor pointing at a May 13 announcement in Korea.
