We know the event will show off the Galaxy S25 lineup, but theres a chance that it could also unveil the long-rumored Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim (and maybe give us a proper name for it besides the rumored title).Weve been following the rumors about this handset for a long time, and weve gathered quite a bit of information about the Galaxy S25 Slim. If youre curious about its specs, potential release window, and everything else we know, read on.Recommended VideosEvan Blass / XAccording to all of the information weve uncovered so far, the Galaxy S25 Slim will be receiving an international launch not just a Korea-focused one. As for the date, theres no firm information. The Galaxy S25 Slim isnt expected to launch anytime soon, though. Most predictions place it sometime in the middle of summer, perhaps around June.Please enable Javascript to view this contentRumors also suggested it wouldnt be announced at the Galaxy Unpacked event in January, but a fresh leak says the handset could be announced in January though it wont be available to purchase for a while longer.RelatedTraditionally, Samsung has released new entries in its handheld lineup earlier in the year. Releasing a phone in summer would be out of the norm; its entirely possible we wont see the Slim until September or October when Samsung usually releases the new FE devices.Andrew Martonik / Digital TrendsThe problem with looking to the FE series for a possible release window is that the Galaxy FE phones are priced lower than the base models. The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is $650, versus the $800 for the base Galaxy S24.From what weve seen so far, the Galaxy S25 Slim could receive upgraded specs versus the base S25. Better internals, combined with the already likely price increase for the Galaxy S25 lineup means the S25 Slim could cost as much as the base model if not more.For reference, the Galaxy S24 was $799 for the base model, $999 for the Plus model, and $1,299 for the Ultra. We expect an increase of around $100 for each size for the S25, meaning the S25 Slim could very likely cost over $1,000.Galaxy S24 FE Joe Maring / Digital TrendsUnlike the other entries in the S25 lineup, the Slim is one we dont quite have a dummy unit for yet. That means theres no clear picture of what the devices silhouette might look like, but we do know that it should be smaller than nearly anything else Samsung currently offers.Last week, well-known tipster Ice Universe shared on Weibo that the S25 Slim should fall between 6mm and 6.9mm thick. We still arent sure how thin the Slim will be, but early information says its significantly narrower than the latest Pixel or the iPhone.Andy Boxall / Digital TrendsThe technical specifications are another area were still largely in the dark about. Some leaks have suggested a camera setup that is more in line with the Vivo X200 Pro Mini, with three 50MP cameras and a 32MP selfie cam.Preliminary reports from GSMArena give the S25 Slim the following configuration:Display6.7 inchesPlatformAndroid 15, One UI 7RAM12GBStorage256GBMain Camera200MP primary, 50MP telephoto, 50MP ultrawideSelfie Camera10 MPVideoBetween 720p@960FPS and 8K@30FPSThe Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra with the Galaxy Buds3 Pro Andy Boxall / Digital TrendsThere is still much we dont know about the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim. What kind of battery life we can expect, the different color options, and more concrete details about the cameras are still unknown.However, we do expect it to make an appearance either at Galaxy Unpacked in January or later in the year, and the existence of the handset is all but guaranteed.
