Galaxy S25 Edge First Impressions

[JAMES4578]

Too early for detailed reviews but a few online on initial impressions.  For some the Edge will win out on style and portability, should be better than the Plus but it is not going to be the best Tech though and missing some camera modules.  With the design not enough space for the most powerful Battery, remains to be seen how efficient it will be and there is issue of how effective heat dissipation will be.

obviously difference with prices at launch but curently the S25 Ultra is available for the same price. upfront (£1099).

I guess there should be some cutting edge like smaller battery, missing out on telephoto lense to make it as thin as possible, but at the same time most of us put cases on the phone, the real question is to what market it would be appealing to.

Also I think we all want to see JerryRiggEverything "Review" on the device and see how durable it is being so slim 🫣😁

[JAMES4578]

Yes going slim means you cannot fit everything in, need to evaluate the pros and cons 😄. Some cases would limit the appeal even if desirable, suppose attracts the mythical middle or those liking new form factor. Going to be more niche though.

Durability is key, no doubt Jerry will entertain us 😆

Think will appeal to people who wants the top notch specs and dont want telephoto lense, or maybe it's more for people who wants just the form factors of the slim phone. Time will tell 😁

The edge also comes with one less core on the 8elite chipset than the other S25 models due to size and thermal throttling. It has a better camera sensor than the plus. I'm sure it's great for point and shoot. 1.5mm thinner than the plus and 27g lighter. I believe ever so slightly wider and a better screen. I love the wider phones. The massive ball ache will surely be the 3900mah battery. One less core in the 8 elite won't be able to offset a 1000mah difference compared to the plus. I'm definitely interested, but really put off by the 3900mah.
