Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim may not be available at US carriers
Samsung is preparing to release a new line of Galaxy S25, in which to the main three devices will be added another model - Galaxy S25 Slim (the name is not official). It is not yet known exactly in which regions the new Galaxy S25 Slim will be sold, but there is information that in the U.S. operators, most likely, the smartphone will not be available.
Here's What We Know
Information provided by whistleblower @evleaks indicates that the Galaxy S25 Slim will not be offered by US carriers. This raises questions about the availability of the device in the US in general. It's possible that the Galaxy S25 Slim will only be available as an unlocked model with no carrier lock-in, or will appear in the US market later than in other countries. Also, the insider doubts the name of the S25 Slim smartphone, as the previously released Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition was originally rumoured to be called the Z Fold 6 Slim. Therefore, the situation may repeat with the new model.
Interestingly, Samsung is rumoured to be developing firmware for the Galaxy S25 Slim for the European, Asian and UAE markets, but there is no firmware for the US yet. In the regions where the Galaxy S25 Slim will be released, the handset will be positioned between the Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra in both marketing and pricing.
Samsung is expected to unveil the base models of the Galaxy S25, Plus and Ultra next week, while a fourth variant could be launched later.
