Samsung Galaxy S25 — 5 reasons to buy and 3 reasons to skip

Samsung galaxy s25 ultra reasons to buy and skip.

With Galaxy S25 preorders now underway, you've got a decision to make about the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Do you buy the latest version of Samsung's premium phone right away or should you hold off on a purchase, whether that just for a little bit or skipping this upgrade entirely?

It's a challenging question. As we've discovered with our Galaxy S25 Ultra hands-on, there's a lot to recommend with this new version, from a top-performing chipset to a bunch of enhanced AI powers. At the same time, the S25 Ultra's starting price of $1,299 is a lot to pay for any device, even one that's as capable as this new Samsung offering. If you do decide to buy, you have to be sure that the Galaxy S25 Ultra is going to provide exactly what you're looking for.
