During the last months, News about the future of the Samsung Galaxy S25+ has been gaining momentum., generating uncertainty among those seeking the balance this model represented within the Korean brand's high-end range. Until now, the S25+ played the role of "middle sibling," positioning itself between the standard model and the Ultra, offering advanced features at a more competitive price than the flagship.
However, Samsung has decided to change its strategy. And everything points to the Galaxy S25+ no longer being part of the next generation of smartphones. This move is intended to simplify the offering, and according to the latest information, the S25+'s slot will be filled by the new Galaxy S25 Edge, a model that has already garnered buzz for its ultra-slim design and features geared toward those looking for a stylish device.
Changes to the range: goodbye to the Galaxy S25+ and hello to the Edge
According to various sources, The demise of the Galaxy S25+ will be effective with the next-generation Galaxy S26.Samsung will go from offering four models to just three, eliminating the S25+ to focus on the Edge as a middle option between the standard and Ultra models. The goal is to reduce overlaps and facilitate the purchasing decision., preventing there from being two terminals very similar in price and features within the same range.
This decision is supported by the trend in previous years, where the Galaxy S25+ stood out for its 6,7-inch QHD+ AMOLED display with 120 Hz refresh rate, Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, 12GB of RAM and 256GB and 512GB storage options. Its 4.900 mAh battery and a body just 7,3 mm thick made it a favorite for many users who were shying away from the Ultra's extra size but didn't want to give up power.
With the arrival of the Edge, Samsung seeks to offer an even thinner device, although with some sacrifices in performance, such as the lack of a telephoto lens on the camera. This could disappoint those looking for a balanced device, since to enjoy the most advanced photography system, you'll need to upgrade directly to the Ultra model, which entails a larger outlay.
What does the user lose with the disappearance of the Galaxy S25+?
El Galaxy S25+ was, for many, the best value option in the high-end range from Samsung. It included a High-performance processor, generous storage, fast charging, water and dust resistance, and a versatile camera with a telephoto lens. In addition, its slim and light design made it comfortable to handle despite its large screen.
With his departure, Users looking for advanced features and a reasonable price will have fewer alternativesThe new Edge focuses on design and slimness, but sacrifices some key features that the S25+ did offer, such as the telephoto lens. Plus, those who want that extra performance will have to look at the Ultra, which translates into a significantly higher price tag.
Moreover, The new structure of the Galaxy range simplifies the choice, something that even the less demanding consumer might appreciate. Instead of offering a wide range of similar models, Samsung chooses to clearly differentiate between the standard device, the design-focused Edge, and the top-of-the-line Ultra. However, this leaves those who value the balance between price and features somewhat neglected.
