Summary

Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge is ultra-three at 5.8 mm and is much lighter than plus despite having a similar 6.7-inch screen.

Putting a case on a thin phone like S25 Edge provides solid security and hold without making the phone extremely heavy.

Samsung’s move with S25 Edge indicates a possible future tendency in thin smartphones.
When Samsung announced an ultra-thunder version of its leading Galaxy S25 last week, the S25 Edge, my excitement immediately came in. The “Edge” Monicer has long been associated with Samsung’s curved performances, but now it indicates a return in the era when the phones were becoming rapidly thin. This reminded me why I always like thin phones – they are perfect for slapping a protective case.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is smooth, thin and gorgeous
On the thickness of only 5.8 mm (without camera collision), Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is one of the thinnest phones in the market today. This standard is 20% (or 1.4 mm) thinner than Samsung Galaxy S25, a difference you will definitely feel.
Oh, and what I have mentioned that this standard packs the 6.7-inch screen of S25+instead of 6.2-inch of S25, while 27g is lighter than plus? These are both big And If you ask me, the perfect combo for a daily driver smartphone!
Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge
Samsung’s latest flagship phone provides the company’s bleeding-edge technology in a slim form factor. If you pre-order the Galaxy S25 Edge directly from Samsung, you will get a free upgrade in the credit $ 50 and 512GB model in the credit.
Surprisingly, the edge is also not close to having the thinnest Android phone, not from long shot. There are many phones that were quite thin compared to the S25 age, a good example 2016 Moto Z. It was only 5.2 mm thick, but it was to support the modular, magasaf-style items on the back.
Cases turn big phones into heavy bricks
While people do not care much about the S25 age, I do. I still love very much in the era when phone manufacturers were locked in a weapon race to release the thinnest, smooth flagship devices with high screen-to-body ratio.
Unfortunately, that race eventually moved towards packing in more and more cameras, which most users actually try once and never re -use again. To accommodate these additions, the phones again became thicker, gradually turned into heavy bricks.
A positive side effect was a large battery, but the couple wholesale smooth, futuristic “piece of glass” was exactly the opposite of the smartphone, which I always wanted – the way you wanted you in an episode black Mirror,
When you already combine a protective case with reinforced corners in large and thick phones, it becomes prohibited and difficult to take into the pocket. Although I have big hands and love big screen, I still prefer pocketability above everything else.
For example, my father -in -law’s Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra was about 1.5 times heavier and thicker than my trusted old Realme X2 Pro with a thick case. I could never imagine carrying such a huge phone in my pocket, especially now when there is something like S25 Edge.

We don’t need a slimmer phone, but you want one anyway
The phone is finally fun again.
Very thin phone cases are perfect for cases
Let’s face it: the number is not a lie. A 2017 survey It was found that 79% of smartphone owners in the US use a protective case. The prices of the phone are constantly rising, it makes sense only to protect your investment, which is why I suspect that the percentage has increased only since then.
I am especially excited about the possibility of having an ultra-split phone because it means that I can use a case in the end, without a huge, hardly a portable semi-tablet that can not fit into my pocket.
One case should be one for me, because I leave my phone very often, to go without one. In fact, my phone recently survived a thick ride on my car hood for his protective case.
Beyond protection, I love matters for rubber -covered grippy surfaces they provide. It provides a safe grip and adds some bezel thickness to prevent the touching palm touch on the screen.

Get a grip, phone cases are not just for safety
Maybe I am clumsy, but at least I am careless.
A new era of thin phones can be around the corner
Apple’s rumor, Samsung now released The Age to overtake the iPhone 17 Air. If Apple embraces an ultra-skinned design, other people will follow the suit. Of course, I am quite excited about the potential revival of a smooth smartphone, on which I could slap cases!
Battery life can be a concern for something, but for me, it is not. With progress in battery technology, like silicon-carbon, getting solid battery performance in razor-skinned devices is becoming more realistic. After all, the S25 Edge’s battery is just 100mAh smaller than the standard S25 to 4,000mAh.
It is also worth noting that the magsafe cases for Android phones are now quite widespread – a magsafe case is already available for S25 Edge. Magsafe opens the door to modular ad-on, such as hot-swapable battery pack, which can expand the S25 age battery life when needed.

How to add magsafe to Android phone
You do not need iPhone to enjoy Magsafe Charges and accessories.
Magsafe accessories may be correct compromise: they let you carry several battery packs when you need them. Your phone is also thinner most of the time (with a case), and when you are traveling or need to use your phone extensively, the battery packs are ready to use. Although it may seem less convenient than only having a large underlying battery, it’s a business band that I am ready to prepare for a paper-leaf phone.
