What reviewers say

Good

  • Clean design
  • Excellent screen
  • Good cameras
  • Smooth daily speed
  • Useful Galaxy AI
  • Fluid software
  • Seven years of updates

Not so good

  • Tiring to hold without a case
  • Throttles under long load
  • Slow charging, no charger
  • Too close to the base S25
  • Same cameras as last year
  • Always-on display drains battery
  • Flat edges dig into hands
  • MySmartPrice84/100

    Polished big-screen Galaxy with much of the Ultra experience for less; not the pick for heavy gamers.

  • Smartprix85/100Feb 2025

    Refinement rather than a leap; an easy pick for owners of 2-3-year-old phones who want a big Samsung without Ultra money.

  • FoneArenaApr 2025

    Sweet spot of the S25 range with small gains over the S24+; worth it from older phones, not from an S24+.

  • Tech AdvisorRecommendedFeb 2025

    Few upgrades feel like a missed chance, yet it is still the best-balanced flagship; skip if you own an S23/S24 (UK review).
