Despite the success of the Galaxy S24 series, Samsung is working hard on the Galaxy S25 series for next year. Several leaks about the new phones have already surfaced, but Samsung has now briefed us on what to expect. At Samsung’s Q2 2024 earnings call, vice-president of mobile experience Daniel Araujo promised notable Galaxy S25 upgrades.
In response to your second question, we have constantly upgraded our hardware in the S Series so that we can provide customers with industry-leading experiences, and will continue to do so to ensure top performance for our customers. Specifically, the S25 will have a top-of-the-line camera and display specs at launch, where we have been leading. To boost AI performance, we’re also preparing industry-best APs and memory.
Executives didn’t discuss specific upgrades to cameras and displays. The most recent leaks suggest, however, that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will have a 50MP 3x camera, an upgrade from the S24 Ultra’s 10MP 3x camera.
Some units will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and, if the Samsung foundry improves yields enough, some will be equipped with the Exynos 2500. It’s even been reported that some units will use MediaTek chipsets. It’s unclear which models will use which chipsets, but it doesn’t look like we will see a repeat of the S23 generation anytime soon.
As the vanilla and Plus phones have used the same camera hardware since 2022, we hope the Galaxy S25 and S25 Plus will also receive significant hardware upgrades.
In the future, we expect to be able to understand the context of conversations and provide a natural conversation and experience across devices. Our AI technologies will be further developed while strengthening partnerships and collaborations.
Combined with on-device AI technology, such as Samsung’s Galaxy S24 series, personal knowledge graph technology facilitates hyper-personalized user experiences while ensuring sensitive personal data remains secure. Samsung explained at the time that the technology would apply to all of its products, including mobile devices, televisions, and home appliances.
