Wed Jan 22 16:41:46 UTC 2025: ## Samsung Galaxy S25 Series Launch Imminent: Higher Prices Expected for AI-Powered Flagships

**Seoul, South Korea** – Samsung is set to unveil its highly anticipated Galaxy S25 series today, comprising the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. Leaks ahead of the official launch reveal significant upgrades, particularly in AI integration and camera capabilities, but also suggest a price increase compared to the S24 series.

The standard Galaxy S25 and S25+ are expected to feature 6.2-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays, powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. Both models will run on Android 15 with One UI 7 and boast a triple-camera system including a 50MP main sensor, a 12MP ultrawide lens, and a 10MP telephoto lens. A minimum of 12GB RAM will be standard across the line.

The flagship Galaxy S25 Ultra promises a larger 6.9-inch Quad HD+ Dynamic AMOLED display, also with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. Its camera system is a major highlight, featuring a 200MP main sensor, a 50MP periscope lens, and a 50MP ultrawide lens, alongside a 12MP front camera. The Ultra model is rumored to offer up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.

Pricing is expected to be higher than its predecessor, with the Galaxy S25 starting around ₹81,000, the S25+ around ₹95,000, and the S25 Ultra around ₹118,000. The price increase is attributed to the cost of the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and the inclusion of advanced AI features.

Samsung is heavily emphasizing AI in the S25 series. The new “Now Bar” feature, a floating island on the lock screen, uses AI to display personalized information and integrate with frequently used apps. An updated “Now Brief” will provide quick access to notifications and alerts. Furthermore, the series is expected to integrate Google Gemini and a new AI-powered version of Bixby, offering enhanced voice commands and assistance. The increased RAM across the series is intended to support these demanding AI features. Storage options will start at 256GB, with 512GB variants for the S25 and S25+, and up to 1TB for the Ultra. The official specifications and pricing will be confirmed during today’s launch event.
