Design and Build: Sleeker, Stronger, More Sustainable
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge showcases a refined design with a titanium frame—matching the Ultra model—enhancing durability while reducing weight. Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 3 protects both front and back, improving drop resistance by 25% over its predecessor. The signature dual-curved Edge display features slimmer bezels, achieving a 94% screen-to-body ratio. New matte-finish color options (Titanium Silver, Sapphire Blue, and Emerald Green) reduce fingerprints. Sustainability advances include 22% recycled aluminum, 20% recycled rare-earth elements, and ocean-bound plastics in components. IP68 water/dust resistance remains standard, with improved ingress protection against fine particulate matter.
