With the Unpacked event that marked some major product releases, the focus has shifted from the hardware launch event to the upcoming Galaxy S25 line and what we can expect from the series. Samsung seems to be prioritizing the design element of the smartphone, with previous speculations pointing to incorporating rounded corners this time. A new leak has provided details on other design changes we might see with the S25 Ultra. With the Galaxy Z Flip and Fold 6 finally launching last week, users are awaiting the upcoming S25 lineup. The rumor mill seems to have intensified lately, suggesting that a design overhaul is in the works for the S25 Ultra. This could address the complaints from consumers regarding the difficulty of holding the S24 Ultra due to its sharper edges and flatter display. Samsung is determined to let users know that their feedback has been heard and plans to modify this aspect with the next S series.
Users have expressed disappointment with the angular frame of the S24 Ultra, making it harder to grip. According to the latest news, Samsung has taken note of the issues and seems to be making these changes for the S25 Ultra. A well-known tipster, Ice Universe, had already suggested that the sharp edges of the S24 Ultra would be replaced with rounded corners, and he recently provided further details on this. According to the leaks, the S25 Ultra will feature an asymmetric frame for better ergonomics, allowing for a more comfortable grip for extended periods. The rear panel is more rounded, while the front is flat with a narrower side bezel. The central frame is relatively slimmer compared to its predecessor, with smaller hinges, making it comfortable to hold and visually more streamlined.
According to the leaks, the Galaxy S25 Ultra will have a width of 8.4 mm, while the previous version was relatively thicker at 8.6 mm. As reported earlier, the choice of a slimmer design for the S25 Ultra would not have affected the camera sensors, which would continue to offer the same attributes and resolution expected by the company for the model.
