Currently, the Galaxy S24 series phones are equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipsets, although in some markets (including India) the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+ come with their own Exynos 2400 processor system. According to a new leak, the upcoming Galaxy S25 series will exclusively have the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset .
Samsung Mobile President TM Roh recently announced at the Snapdragon Summit 2024 that future Samsung phones will feature the recently released Snapdragon 8 Elite, but he did not specify the series or models that will receive them. Since the S and Z series phones are the company’s flagship phones, the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold and Flip as well as the Galaxy S25 series models are expected to get this chipset.
Previous leaks suggest that the alleged Galaxy S25 series phones will be thinner than their Galaxy S24 counterparts. The Vanilla version can measure 146.94×70.46×7.25mm, while the Plus variant measures 158.44×75.79×7.35mm.
The top version of the Ultra had dimensions of 162.82×77.65×8.25 mm. In comparison, the base Galaxy S24 measures 147×70.6×7.6mm, while the Plus and Ultra variants measure 158.5×75.9×7.7mm and 162.3x79x8.6mm, respectively. Another report says that the Galaxy S25 Ultra could come in black, blue, green, and titanium colors.
