While many of the most popular phones are the biggest and baddest ones out there, there's still a significant market for the best compact phones – which is exactly where the Samsung Galaxy S25 fits into the frame. While the top-end S25 Ultra model largely stole the show at Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event, let's not forget the lil guy too.
While last year's entry-level Galaxy S24 model did receive some significant upgrades, with a bigger battery and less bezel around the screen, for 2025 the base Galaxy S25 model is an echo of its predecessor. But it's what's inside that counts, with the latest (and bespoke) top-tier Qualcomm Snapdragon hardware and a big push in artificial intelligence (AI) features.
