We have only heard about the purported Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim from tipsters so far, and unlike other models in this year's earlier report suggested that the phone would be thinner than 6mm, but that's all that we know about it in of design. Newer reports even gave out the hardware specifications of the device, revealing that it will feature the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. More recently, Samsung too hinted at a fourth handset in its Galaxy lineup, in a recent teaser.

Weibo Setsuna Digital (translated from Chinese) older report that suggested the phone would not be launched alongside the usual S25 models at the Galaxy Unpacked event.

The news is a bit confusing given that Samsung recently hinted at a fourth model in its Unpacked event teaser. It looks like enthusiasts will have to wait till the launch date to know whether the Galaxy S25 Slim will be released with the rest of the models, or separately at a later date.

The slimmest model in the Galaxy S25 series, since its first appearance in the rumour mill, is said to compete with an Apple iPhone model — the purported iPhone 17 Air, also known as the iPhone 17 Slim. However, the rumoured dimensions, as per an analyst, could be a lot slimmer at around 5.5mm.

An older report indicates that the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim (model no. SM-S937x/DS) will have a 6.66-inch display, which should be similar to the Galaxy S25+ model.

A reason why Samsung's slim offering is thicker is probably down to the number of cameras. The aforementioned report hints that the Galaxy S25 Slim will have a 200-megapixel primary camera, a 50-megapixel ultrawide camera, and a 50-megapixel 3.5X telephoto camera. The iPhone 17 Air is expected to offer just one rear-facing camera.

Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 8 Elite processor is said to power this slimmer Galaxy S25. It is also tipped to pack a battery with a capacity ranging between 4,700mAh and 5,000mAh.
