With an expected launch in January 2025, Samsung’s Galaxy S family will again set the smartphone tone for the first half of the year. It looks like Samsung is preparing a significant update for the S25 family in general and the Galaxy S25 Ultra in particular. Why else would you give it the internal codename of “paradigm”?

The Samsung Galaxy S25 and S25+ won't have faster charging speeds, sticking to 25W and 45W, respectively. Samsung faces the risk of lagging behind competitors like OnePlus in charging technology, which already supports wired charging at up to 80W.
