Very smooth and fast tons of features
on March 7, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After years of loyalty to Google’s Pixel lineup, I took a leap and switched to the Samsung Galaxy S25—and wow, I’m kicking myself for not doing it sooner. This phone is a revelation: it’s very smooth, blisteringly fast, and packed with features that make my old Pixel feel like it was stuck in slow motion. Samsung has delivered a compact powerhouse that’s redefined what I expect from a smartphone, and I’m here to tell you why it’s worth every penny.
Let’s start with the speed. The S25 runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, a chip so potent it feels like overkill—in the best way possible. Scrolling through apps, multitasking with Samsung’s DeX mode, or firing up Genshin Impact at max settings, this phone doesn’t stutter or sweat. My Pixel, with its Tensor G4, was smooth enough for daily use, but it couldn’t touch this level of raw horsepower. Benchmarks back me up: the S25’s multi-core scores blow past the Pixel 9 Pro’s, and in real-world use, the difference is night and day. Switching apps is instantaneous, animations are buttery, and even after hours of use, it stays cool thanks to improved thermals. My Pixel would’ve been a warm brick by now.
The display is another win. At 6.2 inches, the Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen is vibrant and sharp, with a 120Hz refresh rate that makes every swipe feel like silk. It hits 2,600 nits of brightness, so I can actually see it outdoors—something my Pixel’s screen struggled with in direct sunlight.

Terrible downgrade

Terrible downgrade from my S10e I had a Samsung s10e which for anyone who had one is the best phone EVER, but it's not satellite capable so I had to get a new phone. I picked the Samsung S25 because it was the closest in size. Well I hate it. First the s20e was all soft edges and smooth lines like Zen Garden, this thing is like an anorexic brick. You can tell Samsung thought those other guys made a better phone because now Samsung phones look just like other phones, if I wanted an the other phone I would have bought one. The screen is so slippery it is hard to drop and drag and looks super fragile. And I had it plugged in all night, yes with Samsung approved equipment, and it only got up to 79%. It is only 3 days old and after typing just this review it is down to 70%. I read online that show charging is a big problem. The bottom camera lens is right where my finger likes to be so it is full of finger prints already. All in all not an upgrade from my last phone. I am going to be looking at other phones. I wish my S10e were satellite compatible because I would have kept it
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Great uograde
on March 7, 2025
Posted by: Upgrade
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm upgrading from a Galaxy a54 and the performance difference is amazing. The a54 had gotten a bit slower since I bought it when it came out. The S25's performance is wonderful. I no longer have to wait on anything like apps opening and the response of everything is pretty much instant. The camera was the same 50mp, but the quality of the pictures is night and day. The sharpness and clarity is on another level compared to the a54. It had the same processor as the Ultra and Plus so in happy with this model as the performance is somewhat similar between models.

My new s25
on March 6, 2025
Posted by: Kinglozae
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I want to start out by saying that going from the s22 to the new to me s25 has been an amazing experience. This s25 has exceeded my expectations beyond measure. The quickness of the processor through every app is awesome. The new now brief keeps me informed throughout the day! The new galaxy AI is such an amazing experience. What a great time to be alive ! The audio eraser is awesome when trying to do kareoke.
Thank you Samsung for such a great phone !
