Samsung Galaxy S25 Family Thread

[chrismscotland]

Samsung UK have form for delivering pre-orders early to be fair, I think at least some of us will see it before the end of the week

Edit: That said I've seen orders sit on "Preparing for Dispatch" for days before!

Tech Spurt has confirmed that blurring is still a huge issue when taking photos of moving objects (no mention of what mode he was in however)

Disappointing news since their marketing says its improved

Will wait and see how it goes for my self

It was the first thing I thought of when watching his video

Same main sensor for 3 year in a row, probably not something you can fix entirely with software really.

What screen protector and case are people going for?

 

[evohicks]

I think if you want to retain the anti reflective feature then you'll have to choose wisely, the Samsung official S24 U anti reflective protector was OK but didn't quite make it to the edges of the screen and although there were no major scratches after 12 months, it was pretty roughed up.
It will be interesting to see how the official S25U anti reflective protector holds up.

Also if you ordered via Samsung.co.uk, you will receive an email inviting you to write a review and you will receive a 'starter pack' which from the photo looks like a 15w wireless duo charger and a samsung grip case.

Mous thin case, pricey but not chonky, my S24 has been well protected from my clumsiness - possibly the anti reflective screen protector

In the end I decided to stay with the same brand for cover - Snakehive wallet/flip case - but changed the colur up!

As for the screen protector I was quite torn, in the end after watching a video on last years screen protector I went for the Torras tempered glass screen protector, on the video I watched from last year it seemed to survive the best from a cracking stand point, but I was quite tempted for a bit by either the Spigen tempered glass and the Zagg tempered glass protector

What screen protector and case are people going for?

No screen protector. I've never used one.

Case wise I'm still not sure. Spigen or Zagg maybe. I want one that has a built in kickstand. May opt for the offical grip case thing.

This is the hardest part for me with every new phone I usually end up trawling through eBay and aliexpress to find a nice but cheaper case and hydrogel screen protector.

Spigen case for me likely, bought a Dexnor for my S24U and while it was chunky (and probably saved it a few times) its marked the side of the phone which a Spigen has never done.
Quite like the idea of the Spigen Tough Armor which now has magsafe thing for adding a card wallet

I've used the tough armour before on my Note. Great cases.

Yeah, I used them exclusively for a long time, will be going back! Quite like the green!

 

[malachi]

I always used the Spigen Tough Armor, ordered the same for my S25 Ultra as it appeared a few day ago.

I ordered the official Samsung case with my phone but I am going to send it back.

Have gone for a Ghost 2.0 case and screen protector from DBrand. I had one of their skins on the back of Note10 that lasted for ages so thought id give them a go. I am not normally a fan of having a full case on though so not sure how long it will last! Missed their first batches so wont ship til mid march for the case.

Samsung have updated my order to "Preparing dispatch". I ordered it late on Friday night and picked 1st Feb delivery which I assumed was wishful thinking... looking more promising now.

 

[T1Cybernetic]

I've ordered these and I'll put the links here to hold myself accountable just in case they are shocking ya never know.

Less than a tenner for the lot far too many people are scared of aliexpress and the like but they've been excellent for me over the years.
