I recently upgraded to the Samsung S25 from the S24, and I have to say, my feelings are mixed.
Starting with the design – the phone definitely feels thicker in the hand compared to the S24. I really liked the sleek and slim feel of the S24, and the S25 loses a bit of that charm. The screen is slightly larger, which might be a plus for some, but for me, it just made the phone feel bulkier overall.
One thing that caught me off guard was the camera lenses. They feel a little awkward – maybe it's the size or placement, but they don’t feel quite right when handling the phone.
Battery life has been a real disappointment. I expected more from a new flagship, but it barely gets me through the day with moderate use.
On the plus side, the display is absolutely stunning. It's noticeably improved from the S24 – super bright, crisp, and great for watching videos or gaming. Samsung always nails the screen quality, and this is no exception.
Overall, the S25 has its strengths, but for me, it’s a step sideways rather than forward – especially if you were a fan of the slim and comfortable design of the S24.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The size of the device is adequate, especially if you have to crouch all the time and have it in your pocket... it does not bother you at all. The AI is super good, highlighting the live Gemini feature, using it from time to time with conversations, you can talk like a real person, and if you activate the camera, you can ask it naturally and point things out, super practical. As for the power and so on, there are no complaints, good power and battery power are enough for the whole working day and if you add the fast charging, I do not think anyone will turn it off. Connectivity with Samsung's various accessories is super fast and smooth. In short, an excellent device.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had nothing but good experiences with this phone. The battery literally lasts all day, the camera is clear as day, and the Galaxy AI is absolutely helpful in so many ways! I personally like using the Galaxy AI to get quick answers for everyday questions and tips. Overall, this phone is the best one I've had so far and I know it is going to last me a long time thanks to it's good quality.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Galaxy AI on this phone is awesome. It has great features so many that I couldn't even figure out all of them. You can do just about anything on this phone. Has a very long battery life on one charge which is amazing. Basically last about 2 days on one charge.

Galaxy S24! Get one if you havent already!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung Galaxy S25 series, launched in 2025, offers several models to suit different preferences. The standard Galaxy S25 features a 6.2-inch display and a 50-megapixel main camera. Takes great photos and videos. I like that you can use AI to get information about a photo you took or something you hightlight on your phone by pressing and holding the home button you can circle or hight what you want AI to tell you about. The Galaxy S25 model is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and support Galaxy AI capabilities. So its a smooth operating system and good amount of storage. Games and videos run and stream smoothly. So much was added from the S24 to the S25. Wonderful job at another Galaxy phone Samsung. I only by your phones and always get the newer one because you make Wonderful upgrades and its worth it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great phone but battery could use some work. Battery runs down fast when playing games or watching videos. I heard it had a great battery so pretty let down by it. Galaxy AI is a major plus, still learning but awesome so far.
