Samsung Galaxy S25 Family Thread

Full spec of upcoming S25 series with a nice price bump.

Base S25 Ultra, 256GB with 12GB only €1,571 (£1,326)

Basically an s24U with slightly rounded edges and a price bump, innovation well and truly gone.

I've caved in every year and purchased the latest s2# U but this year nothing tempting .. great for those on a longer term upgrade though from an s21 or something
 
The more info that comes out, the more reason there is to not upgrade from S24U.

There's only one thing that will tempt me - if it's ~£200 total cost again, or less, like it was from S23U to S24U, for no reason other than to keep the trade in price for next year higher when hopefully the new batteries etc are implemented.

New batteries eh, tech or easily removable?

That's the kind of thing I'm hoping for, giving it a miss otherwise. Have paid the £50 as it gets refunded if not used.
 
When got the S23u, It came with nothing, all you got was a storage upgrade, but from what I remember a discount code was floating about which have a good saving.

The rounded corners is enough for me to upgrade from the S24U.

The boxy corners are so uncomfortable.

I have been using my Pixel 9 Pro XL for months now as it's far more comfortable to use with the rounded corners.

Bring on the S25 Ultra
 
I got the buds with my S21U and Galaxy watch 5. Sold the spare pair.

They probably giving up on the buds as everyone has them now due to the price.
 
Still happy with S23U even with some random niggles but might rethink my next obligatory upgrade to a Samsung. I'm getting a bit fed up with my degrading charging port issues from the last few phones.
 
also has anyone upgraded existing finance, I have finance with my S23u and was wondering if it carries over or if I need to reapply ?

I had some problems when I brought my S24U with an existing Samsung finance agreement against my Samsung tablet and they wouldn't budge no matter what I tried. Ended up having to take the phone via Paypal Credit instead to get the 0% offer. On my S24U, I got a free Galaxy watch plus enhanced trade-in and 10% off plus 10% referral code. They also did a free case and screen protector.

what problems did you have ?
How did you mange to get the enhanced trade-in and 10% off plus 10% referral code. They also did a free case and screen protector. ?

When I got the S23u I could not get any of then not even the screen protector


No 16gb Ram model for Europe or the West. Very poor from Samsung.
we will need to wait and see, a lot of contradicting information about.
if they do offer only 12gb and a downgraded S pen then would be time to skip or switch.

They just wouldn't let me have two agreements with Samsung Finance at the same time. PayPal did the job but the way their overpayments works sucks compared to Samsung and rather than allowing you to reduce your monthly payment, you can reduce the term only. The freebies were all added with a promo code which was on the product page itself to add in at the basket screen.

10% off code was one they emailed and the other 10% referral was a code of Twitter I managed to find - they're quite often on Fleabay for a couple of quid if you get desperate.

A bit silly IMO, but my finance is coming to an end.

so was the email code alternative to the £50 they are offering at the moment or was it something available after

I think twitter had something similar when I got the S23u
No desperate, it will likely depend on the final phone and what i cant get. if its a loss ill likely skip it.

did you manage to use both code and discount (stackable) some time you can only use one or the other ?
