Although the Galaxy S25 Ultra isn’t expected until early 2025, leaks, rumors, and speculations have already started circulating. Anticipated upgrades include a reinforced titanium construction, an upgraded processor, a larger camera sensor, faster storage, and an array of Galaxy AI enhancements, promising even more than its predecessor, the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
As excitement builds, here’s a roundup of what we know so far about the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.

It is rumored to boast a titanium build, powered by the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor, and offer faster storage capabilities (rumored to reach 8GB/second), along with a potentially larger camera sensor.
The device is expected to feature a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display and retain the Gorilla Glass Armor from its predecessor, the S24 Ultra. Running on Android 15, it will integrate AI capabilities powered by Google’s Gemini Nano 2.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra New Features
According to an IMEI listing posted on June 6 and noted by Android Headlines, more details have surfaced. IMEI listings provide clear insights as they are part of official registration data required for smartphones on mobile networks.
Based on the listing (device number SM-S938U), the S25 Ultra in the U.S. is set to feature the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor and a 6.9-inch AMOLED 2X display with a brightness of 3000 nits.
Additional leaks from Weibo suggest a 200MP main sensor camera, a 50MP ultrawide lens, and dual 50MP telephoto lenses with 3x and 5x optical zoom capabilities.
Similar to the current Samsung S24 Ultra, artificial intelligence is expected to play a crucial role in most functions of the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
This includes features like Battery AI, designed to enhance battery efficiency through AI integration — although rumors from Sawyer Galox on X indicate there may not be an increase in battery capacity for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra flagship phone.
The S25U will still have a 45W battery and a 5000mah battery 100%. I got this information recently and it was really unfortunate 😅.

When the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra arrives in 2025, it will likely come equipped with Android 15, the latest version of the Android operating system. Alongside this updated OS, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is expected to integrate Google’s AI model, Gemini Nano 2, building on the capabilities of its predecessor used in the Samsung S24 series.
Continuing the trend from the Galaxy S24 Ultra, Gorilla Glass Armor might also be featured in the Samsung S25 Ultra, offering enhanced durability and protection.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Specs and Hardware
It is highly expected that Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will come with Enhanced Processor, Improved Image Sensor, Faster Storage. The design of the Galaxy S25 Ultra is anticipated to remain largely unchanged, with Samsung possibly opting for a sturdier titanium build while keeping the overall size similar.
There are whispers suggesting Samsung might introduce subtle modifications to the front design, focusing on the frame and bezels.
Rumors point towards the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor debuting later this year, rumored to omit low-power efficiency cores. Instead, it may feature two powerful Phoenix cores and six medium-performance Phoenix cores, with one potentially clocking at speeds exceeding 4GHz.
In a leak from Ice Universe on X, the storage chip in the Samsung S25 Ultra is speculated to offer double the capacity of its predecessor. This could mean an upgrade to 8GB/second from the current 4GB/second seen in the S24 Ultra, promising significant enhancements for the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s anticipated array of AI features.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Colors
Samsung introduced its first-ever titanium frame with the S series Ultra models, which also saw an expanded range of color options. The Samsung S24 Ultra debuted in seven standard colors: Titanium Black, Titanium Yellow, Titanium Gray, Titanium Violet, Titanium Green, Titanium Blue, and Titanium Orange.
While there haven’t been any leaks suggesting new colors for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, it’s reasonable to expect Samsung to continue offering these familiar options.
