"The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is incredibly versatile, elegant, and powerful. While it's Samsung's best offering, its high price and competition lead to questions about its overall perfection. The display, once superior, now faces strong competition. Performance excels initially but lags behind competitors with sustained use. Even the impressive cameras lack endearing character. Samsung needed near-perfection, and delivered greatness."
Samsung teased a slimmer "Edge" smartphone at Galaxy Unpacked, but further details remain unavailable.
Galaxy AI integration continues Samsung's commitment to AI. While still developing, many features are backward compatible with older models, though newer models offer better performance.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra was IGN's favorite Android phone of 2024, praised for its titanium chassis and powerful processor. The S24 Plus also received high marks.
