Samsung wants to avoid a bendgate disaster with a durable Galaxy S25 Edge

A close look at the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge's protruding camera module at Samsung Unpacked 2025.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is set to become one of the thinnest smartphones on the market, and making any piece of technology that slim is a balance.
