[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In love with the S25. Well worth the upgrade. Pictures are great, speed is great, AI is learning me fast which is helping my disabled self tremendously. Seemless across my apps.
So lightweight compared to the S20FE.
I was hearing rumors of overheating. None here.
I do wish I got the plus just because of screen size. My eyes are old. LOL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use my phone for basics things like media consumption and lite gaming. The battery lasts all day on a single charge. AI features like image eraser is really good, audio eraser is good but could use a bit of refinement. AI suggestions for typing would be better if you didn't have to click after writing if you could get suggestions while typing it would be better. Camera and screen are good.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Samsung Galaxy S25 for a little while now, and here’s my honest take on it.
Design & Display Right off the bat, I love how compact and lightweight this phone feels. The 6.2-inch FHD+ AMOLED display is bright and smooth, making scrolling and watching videos super enjoyable. It’s great for one-handed use, but I do miss the slightly curved edges from older models—this one feels a bit more flat. Still, the build quality is solid.
Performance This phone is fast. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Elite keeps everything running smoothly, whether I’m multitasking, gaming, or editing photos. Apps open instantly, and I haven’t noticed any slowdowns. Samsung’s One UI 6.1 is polished and easy to navigate, but there’s still some pre-installed bloatware, which is a bit annoying.
Battery Life Battery life has been surprisingly good. I can go almost two days on a single charge with moderate use (social media, streaming, messaging). Heavy gaming drains it quicker, but the 45W fast charging helps top it up fast. No charger in the box, though, which is frustrating.
Camera The 50MP main camera takes really sharp and vibrant photos, especially in good lighting. Low-light shots are decent, but I was hoping for better improvements. The telephoto lens (3x zoom) is solid, but I wish they had included the 5x zoom from the Ultra model.
Final Thoughts Overall, I’m really happy with the Galaxy S25. It’s fast, compact, and has a great display, but I do wish the camera had more upgrades and S
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The S25 can do a lot of cool things, especially the enhanced models, but my basic S25 is plenty powerful for me. My favorite things about the S25 are the seldom used apps that are real game changers for me. Being able to use the camera to overlay translated text when I'm in another country...outstanding. I just recently discovered live wallpapers and lock screens! Hands down the best phone I've had.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone,much akin to all the other Galaxy series of phones I've owned, is a quality product. It's dependable, has above average battery life, and keeps things simple for "technological geriatrics " like myself.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The apps are very simple and easy to use. The screen setup when I started using the phone was easy and the seamless actions across apps was amazing. It is so easy to use. I can set my apps up the way I like. And I like the smaller phone size. it fits into my pockets a lot better than my previous phone. The Now Brief is an inventive Idea to keep people in the loop, for what is happening in the world. I like the concept. KEEP up the good work. The S25 is the best of the best. Good job Samsung!
