The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is generating buzz with exciting rumors about its design. According to recent leaks, Samsung’s next flagship smartphone will be both thinner and lighter than its major competitors, the iPhone 16 Pro Max and the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL. This development suggests a significant shift in the design philosophy for Samsung’s high-end devices.
While the iPhone 16 Pro Max is yet to be officially revealed, set for a September 9 announcement, the Pixel 9 Pro XL currently stands at 8.5mm in thickness and weighs 221g. In comparison, the Galaxy S24 Ultra measures 8.6mm thick and weighs 232g. With these benchmarks, it is anticipated that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will be at most 8.4mm thick and weigh 220g or less.
Adding to the excitement, the well-known leaker Ice Universe has hinted that the S25 Ultra won’t just surpass the iPhone 16 Pro Max and Pixel 9 Pro XL but will also be the slimmest and lightest among upcoming Ultra flagship phones. This includes anticipated models like the Oppo Find X8 Ultra, Xiaomi 15 Ultra, and vivo X200 Ultra, all expected to launch in the coming months.
Samsung’s strategy seems to focus on not only enhancing the phone’s aesthetics with its rounded corners and ultra-thin profile but also ensuring it remains comfortable to handle despite its advanced features. With incredibly slim bezels contributing to its sleek look, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is poised to be a compelling choice for tech enthusiasts looking for a blend of style and functionality.
As more details emerge, the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s design will likely be a key factor in its competitive positioning within the high-end smartphone market.
