Samsung Galaxy S25 Goes Beyond Exynos?

Despite this rant, I'll never get a Pixel or an iPhone, nor would I recommend them. Ever.

People who will get the base S25 and S25 plus I can understand.

But the ultra? Absolutely not. You're coughing up 1300 USD for a phone that has old display tech, which impacts longevity AND battery life, same camera tech, same 5K mAh, same 45W charging. It's ridiculous. I get that most of these things are small nitpicks, and most people will do just fine with the tech they'll put in the ultra. But that's not the point. The point of the Ultra lineup is not be "good enough", it's to have the best and most recent technology and specs. That's why you cough up an insane amount of money for it. That's why you pay extra vs the plus or base. If you want good enough, which is most of the population tbh, then get the plus or base. That's what that's for. You save some cash and you get everything you need, may not be the most bleeding edge specs, but it's more than great for most ppl. That's the point.

With that being said. Still, I'd never get a Pixel or an iPhone. I'd just get the S25+ or wait for S26 Ultra.

There will be Exynos version in the S25 series

Perfectly happy with my s24 ultra , seeing no reason to upgrade to the s25u which has an older display tech m13 , and the snap 8 elite with so much horsepower that i don't even need , slower charging , and gimmicky ai features that Ninty percent of the people are not gonna be using in their day to day life anymore 😢😢😢😢

thank you for using a wireless mic ✌

"Stop trying to make Exynos happen... it's not going to happen." Hahah

Besides circle to search, I still have yet to use a single AI feature on my s24U

Its astonishing how Mediatek did what Samsung couldn't for all this time.

For me it's quite simple. I will get the S25+ if it has a Snapdragon or Dimemsity. If it has Exynos, I will go for Oneplus 13.

I have an exynos s21 and it can't even go above 60fps on a moba game

I was going to wait till the 25 ultra to come out to upgrade from my 23 ultra but i think ill just stick with my current phone i dont really see much of a upgradd there

Either Snapdragon or Dimensity are fine, as long its not Exynos.

I am using the base. Exynos is fine for me. S24 has been great. I dont want a laptop chip in my phone that has no use, ahem ahem ipads, give me more ram and storage and I am all for it.

I don't get the mediatek love. Their chips aren't that good.

Well by the sounds of that I don't think I'll be upgrading this year again, no significant camera upgrades by the sounds of it, and I really wanted to see a better sensor on the 3x zoom. I'm fine with the S23 Ultra for another year

I wish huawei was not banned, it could have pushed this top dogs on the edge

6000 mah battery and 10 yers update

So apart from the slight bump in the processor and bottom ⤵️ curvature, what else is new for Samsung S25? Seems a cosmetic upgrade for S24 owners 😅.
Happy holding onto to my Note 20 ➕ Ultra which has 512 Gb internal and 512 SD card slot 💳 👍 = 1️⃣ Tb.
Why spend £1,400.
I'd rather buy a Smart TV 📺 for a second room to entertain the kids 🧒🏻 🤷‍♀️🙋🏻! That's double the entertainment for Xmas 🎄 🎅

Needs snapdragon and 12gb ram for it to get my money.

I got a 512gb S24 Ultra yesterday with a 25% discount. I hope i have made the right choice instead of waiting for the s25 ultra
I am in the UK so does it have the snapdragon chipset

What's this guys name? He sounds like a machine gun.

Please talk about how the S25U will be obsolete upon launch, using old M13 OLED panel technology, and 4 year old camera sensors. This is the same phone for 4 years in a row. Yet people will still buy it, and that's why Samsung isn't innovating these years.

Remember when everyone wanted Exynos phones over snap

damn its such a bummer than the s25 series uses the m13 display ,while iphone16promax uses the m14 display. I really can't decide if i want to get an iphone16promax or s25 ultra. I m currently using s20+ no lag for day to day uses, but it does have the stupid green lines and the mobile data connectivty suck ass. I really want to get the s25 ultra, but the m13 display is really making me feel like it's a waste compare to m14 display on iphone 16 pro max. So which would you guys recommened ?

Samsung continues to disappoint year by year. The snapdragon chips are very exciting but as far as phones go the new rounded edges, the lack of camera upgrades, external storage options, and m13 screen tech and still calling it Ultra... I don't buy a flagship money to save money.

Again, the bored and negative tone of Samsung's repetitive hardware was nowhere to be found in the iphone 16 videos, from leaks to release.

It either comes with a Snapdragon, or I’m looking elsewhere.

Can't wait for the S30

I wonder if trading s24U to base s25 is worth it? As i love compact phones and hate ultra's size

no more jokes

So wait..... The NEW Samsung phones will use OLDER iPhone screens?!?!
WTF?!!?
AND they're trying to make the icons look like iPhone..?!
Scamsun strikes again... I mean SAMPPLE....
Oops I mean APPLESUNG...
UGH... JUST FORGET IT!!!
(lol)

If it's not far from S24 ultra, i will pass again for upgrade. Seems like China is the best way to go, with great camera, great screen, great chips etc. Apple and samsung are lagging behind. S24 camera shots are dull.

Damn, now I’ve seen both sides…

Garbage fire fire breathing phones or stagnant, boring, non innovative phones…
Both not worth it…

But tbf, I’d prefer the boring phone over the garbage 888 or 8 gen 1 disaster phones.

If it's not snapdragon, I'm switching to Apple.

Whatever specs they use, it'll be a good upgrade from my S20 FE that has an Exynos chip. Despite using Exynos, it served me well for the past 3 1/2 years, but I think it's time for an upgrade for me.

Damn, Apple just obliterated their so-called competition. It just makes you feel so sorry for poor Samsung, Qualcomm, and Windows. Yep, it's beginning to look a lot like Apple Xmas again. 🎄💰😁

Yawn very boring and y’all come for Apple!! lol!

Was hoping to see lidar added back. 🥴

Meh. Samsung hasn’t done anything exciting for 5 years now

Bring back miro sd card slot!

I literally just got my S23 couple of weeks ago but I kinda like the S25 especially the Snapdragon 8 elite.

The recent lawsuit between Qualcomm and Arm is exactly why Samsung has a two supplier approach to processors.

Samsung's already confirmed a snapdragon, is going to be an all of the s25 series

Does anyone know if the new M14 screen panels are only on iphone and google pixel 9 pro xl or pixel 9 pro as well ?

People just want Snapdragon so Samsung : put Snapdragon everywhere !
No Dimensity, no Exynos: simple

Should have left the design alone. And upgrade the insides only. Samsung loves to f things every year.

If it's true then im just hoping the new pixel is tsmc

i have upgraded five yrs in a row. There is zero reason to upgrade again for the Samsung galaxy ultra 25 zero

Old news it's already confirmed all snapdragon for the S25 line.

I will not buy samsung s 25 if they go Exynos.

I'm sticking with my Note 20. With 12gb/512gb plus 512gb SD it still keeps up. Just needs a new battery. Sad, there has been so little progress in flagships over the last 5 years
