The past few Galaxy S series launches have likely made consumers feel that Samsung lacks the motivation to bring any drastic design changes to its flagship family. Fortunately, one tipster notes that after several generations, the company is finally bringing an aesthetic shift to the Galaxy S25, starting with the base model, whose display size is said to be increased compared to the current-generation Galaxy S24.
Base Galaxy S25 display size is said to reach 6.36 inches; existing Galaxy S24 ships with a 6.2-inch panel
On the Korean blog Naver, tipster yeux1122 has apparently received crucial information, which he claims is a source from Samsung. The design changes arriving to the Galaxy S25 series were not detailed, but it was mentioned that the base model’s display size would be increased to 6.36 inches, up from 6.2 inches on the Galaxy S24. Looking at the Galaxy S24 Plus and Galaxy S24 Ultra, both flagships sport a bigger screen size than the cheaper member of Samsung’s current flagship family.
To remind you, the Galaxy S24 Plus features a 6.7-inch display, while Samsung’s top-tier Galaxy S24 Ultra is just entering the compact tablet territory with its 6.8-inch screen size. Looking at these comparisons, one can speculate that the more expensive Galaxy S25 models would arrive with even bigger panels, giving them inherent benefits over their direct predecessors. As most of you know, having a larger display results in a bigger footprint, giving Samsung more freedom on what components to add.
This can range from an expanded battery capacity to a vapor chamber with a larger surface area to deliver adequate cooling to the newer models. Given the success of the Galaxy S24 series in terms of shipment numbers, Samsung likely wants to keep that momentum running, but even the company knows that using a set of cutting-edge chipsets and cameras paired with enhanced AI features and more is not going to do the job if an older design continues to be stretched for several years.
However, since this is just an early rumor, we recommend our readers treat it with a pinch of salt, and as always, we will be back with more updates. For now, there are various other Samsung launches to look forward to, such as the Galaxy Ring, the unnamed AR headset, and the company’s high-end foldable smartphones.
