It seems the rumors about a Galaxy S25 Slim were true after all, according to a recent leak. According to SmartPrix, the upcoming “Slim” variant has appeared in the IMEI database with the model number SM-S937. Moreover, another listing for the SM-S937 model number was spotted, where the “U” suffix could indicate a US-specific variant.
Right now, not much is known about the Galaxy S25 Slim. However, as its name suggests, it will likely be a thinner version of the other models in the Galaxy S25 lineup, expected to debut next year. While thinner variants typically compromise in battery life and camera performance, it’s unclear how Samsung plans to handle these challenges.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim could debut in Q2 2025
According to the original report, the Galaxy S25 Slim may launch in the second half of 2025, likely between April and June. Samsung typically adds devices to the database about six to seven months before their official release. If the timeline holds, the Galaxy S25 Slim could face competition from the anticipated Google Pixel 9a and the rumored iPhone SE 4.
Meanwhile, the upcoming Galaxy S25 carries the model number SM-S931, while the Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra may come with the model numbers SM-S936 and SM-S938, respectively.

There are also rumors about Apple’s upcoming iPhone 17 “Slim” variant, making it interesting to see how the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim compares to it. To summarize the rumors, the Galaxy S25 Slim may launch earlier than the iPhone 17 Slim, which typically arrives in September or October each year. When it comes to comparing the two, pricing, specs, and, of course, thickness and size will likely be key factors. We’ll just have to wait a little longer to see how it all plays out.
So, are you excited about the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim — or do you feel Apple could pull ahead with its rumored iPhone 17 “Slim”?
