Samsung Galaxy S25+ leaks in first renderings, looks boring

Samsung Galaxy S25+ leaks in first renderings, looks boring

Following its siblings S25 Ultra and S25, today is the time to showcase the Galaxy S25+ in the first leaked renders. These are based on CAD, so fine details may be inaccurate. Keep that in mind, but the overall impression of the design is what we will see in January.

And it’s definitely boring. Sure, it’s instantly recognizable as a Samsung, which is good for the Korean company’s brand awareness, but the problem (which isn’t new at all) is that it looks exactly like any Samsung. Maybe the flagship line shouldn’t share design elements with $200 phones?

Samsung definitely disagrees. What we see is essentially the same design, just tweaked here and there. The bezels are thinner, the camera rings are slightly different, no doubt the colors will change, maybe the texture on the back will be different, the frame is flatter, and that’s it.

This is definitely not for those who prefer fancy, never-before-seen designs. According to a previous rumor, the S25+ will also have the same battery as its predecessor, stuck at 4,900mAh, so as not to clash with the almighty Ultra, which itself is stuck at 5,000mAh.

The S25+ will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 SoC, which is due to be announced in October. Some markets may (or may not) get Samsung’s Exynos 2500 instead. The phone should have 12GB of RAM and maybe even 256GB of base storage. Fingers crossed.

It will have the same display size as the S24+. The S25+ will measure 158.4 x 75.7 x 7.3mm, making it slightly less tall, less wide, and thinner than the S24+.

According to the source of these renderings, the S25 family will not be officially unveiled until January 10th and the unveiling will take place sometime in mid-January.
