Excitement is building around the potential launch of Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge. As the slimmest Galaxy phone ever, it promises flagship performance in an ultra-thin design. However, uncertainty remains about its global availability. A tipster recently claimed that the device will debut in India in April, contradicting earlier rumors of a limited initial release.
Galaxy S25 Edge is nearing its launch but there’s still uncertainty about its global availability
According to reports, Samsung plans to produce only 40,000 units of the Galaxy S25 Edge for its initial launch. This suggests the phone will be limited to select markets, most probably South Korea. However, there’s already evidence showing the ongoing development of multiple versions intended for global markets, including the US.
The Galaxy S25 Edge has also received regulatory approvals in many regions outside Korea, such as India. Now, tipster @yabhishekhd claims Samsung “is launching” the phone in India next month. This likely means the original rumors of limited initial production are incorrect. Samsung may go global with the S25 Edge in April.
Even if the slim flagship doesn’t see as wide a launch as the rest of the S25 lineup, it may not be restricted to South Korea. While official confirmation from Samsung is pending, recent developments have been promising. The Galaxy S25 Edge may be just 5.84mm thick and weigh 162 grams, making it incredibly thin and lightweight.
It still features the same Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor as the Galaxy S25 Ultra, ensuring top-tier performance. A slim design means Samsung may throttle the performance to keep the temperature in check, but expect a solid everyday performance. Battery life is a concern though, as the phone packs a 3,900mAh unit while sporting a 6.7-inch screen.
If leaks are accurate, the Galaxy S25 Edge may go official on April 16, so more details are likely to surface soon. Stay tuned for further updates on its availability and pricing.
