Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge Pricing & Positioning
Samsung is set to expand its Galaxy S25 lineup with the Galaxy S25 Edge, a device that bridges the gap between the S25+ and S25 Ultra. A new leak from Financial News Korea reveals that the phone will launch in 256GB and 512GB variants, with the following price points:
- 256GB model – 1,500,000 won (~$1,031)
- 512GB model – 1,630,000 won (~$1,120)
For comparison, the S25+ starts at 1,353,000 won (~$928), while the S25 Ultra starts at 1,698,400 won (~$1,165) in Korea. This confirms that the S25 Edge will be the second most expensive device in the lineup.
However, Samsung typically prices its devices higher in global markets. For example, the S25 Ultra starts at $1,299 in the U.S., despite a lower price tag in Korea. This suggests the S25 Edge could be even more expensive internationally.
Limited Availability at Launch
Reports indicate that only 40,000 units of the S25 Edge will be available initially, hinting at a controlled launch strategy. Samsung may increase production based on demand.
Additionally, the S25 Edge will not include a 1TB storage option or exclusive colors typically reserved for Samsung’s online store.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Expected Features
- Display: 6.55-inch 120Hz AMOLED

- Battery: 3,900mAh with 25W charging
- Cameras: 200MP main camera
- Colors: Light Blue, Black, and Silver

With an expected May 2025 release, the Galaxy S25 Edge could be a compelling choice for those seeking a flagship experience without going for the Ultra model.
