Though we’re getting a decently refreshed Galaxy S25 Ultra and an entirely new model with the Galaxy S25 Edge, our hands-on Samsung Galaxy S25 review found that the baseline S25 has received a comparatively smaller update from its predecessor than either of its siblings. .

For the Galaxy S25 Ultra, Samsung added a new ultra-wide camera sensor, Gorilla Armor 2 and a big revamp to its AI suite. But is that enough to convince you to buy a new $1,300 phone?

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra may be an iterative update over the S24 Ultra, but it iterates in pretty much every way.
