The iPhone Air beats the Galaxy S25 Edge — but here’s how Samsung can change that with the Galaxy S26 Edge

IPhone Air vs Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge.

Given the solid reviews that greeted the Galaxy S25 Edge when Samsung released its ultra-thin phone earlier this year, there's a strong possibility we're going to see a follow-up device in 2026. But when it does appear, the Galaxy S26 Edge is going to have some company in the form of Apple's iPhone Air.

Apple came out with a thin phone of its own a few months after the Galaxy S25 Edge's debut, and it's safe to say that the iPhone Air didn't suffer any from arriving after Samsung's device. In fact, my colleague Mark Spoonauer gives the nod to Apple's offering in his iPhone Air vs. Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge comparison, citing the thinner sleeker design and superior performance of the former. The fact that the iPhone Air costs $100 less than the Galaxy S25 Edge probably helps, too.
