Samsung Galaxy S25 FE tipped to feature 'slim' design

Samsung Galaxy S24 FE was launched globally last month and details of its purported successor have already surfaced online, Gadget 360 reports. 

According to details shared by a tipster, the company will equip the Galaxy S25 FE next year with MediaTek's latest flagship chipset, instead of using its own Exynos mobile processor. Meanwhile, a South Korean publication reports that Samsung is considering the possibility of launching the Galaxy S25 FE as a 'slim' smartphone with a slimmer but larger battery.

The Elec reports (in Korean) that Samsung is mulling the development of the Galaxy S25 FE as a slim smartphone. Unlike the Samsung Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra which are expected to launch in early 2025, the South Korean company is not likely to launch a new Fan Edition (FE) smartphone until Q3 2025.

This slim Samsung Galaxy S25 FE model will reportedly feature a 6.7-inch screen, just like the company's current-generation Galaxy S24 FE model. To achieve the purported slim form factor, Samsung could increase the area of the battery while reducing its thickness, according to the publication.

Samsung isn't the only company said to be working on a thinner flagship phone. Recent reports suggest that Apple is also working on a slim iPhone 17 Air (or iPhone 17 Slim) that could make its debut next year as the company's slimmest phone to date as part of the iPhone 17 series.
