Marketing materials for the Galaxy S25 Ultra have leaked that confirm quite a few features, along with other leaks that hint about the phone’s eventual price. Known tipster Evan Blass released a slew of S25 Ultra marketing materials that highlight several interesting features. The materials focus heavily on the camera quality, citing a feature called the ProScaler as a way to take high-resolution photos. The materials also talk about the camera’s Night Video with Audio Eraser ability, which helps you take more clear nighttime videos. After you’ve finished recording, you can use the onboard AI to cut out unwanted voices, noise, wind sounds, bird chirps, the hum of a crowd, and even music.

One feature that hasn’t been talked about much is the Smart Switch tool, which makes it easy to move your content from one device to another. Gone are the days when transferring assets to a new phone required professional intervention; you can now do it yourself with just a few clicks. It comes as no surprise that AI is one of the biggest features, but it is concerning that the fine print lists only one year of free AI features. The Galaxy S24 is promised two years of free features, so it’s curious that Samsung isn’t extending the trial period for the same length of time.

How much will the new Galaxy S25 cost? The initial price for the Galaxy S25 series will remain the same as the S24 series, at least in South Korea. FNNews reports that “it is [Samsung’s] policy to bear the cost burden for domestic consumers, despite various unfavorable conditions such as rising component prices and exchange rates.” The 512GB model will be more expensive than the previous generation, according to the report.

Unfortunately, we don’t have pricing estimates for the U.S. market. In Europe, the base models might have a similar freeze as in South Korea, but Indian prices look to be higher. We’ll officially find out all the details tomorrow at the Galaxy Unpacked event.

iFixit calls the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra “the most repairable Galaxy in years”

Although Samsung has a history of taking a more consumer-friendly approach to repairing devices, it hasn't always been an easy task. And in some cases, Samsung doesn't take the friendliest view of third-party components. The Galaxy S25 Ultra has taken a step forward, as iFixit has dubbed it the "most repairable Galaxy phone in years" in a recent press release. Here's why.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra uses four small tabs to hold the battery in place. If you need to remove it, you just pull those tabs up and the battery releases with ease. It's a much simpler method than iPhone's electrochemical release, but there's still a long journey ahead before Galaxy phones are as repairable as they should be.
