The Samsung Galaxy S25+, which was announced at a special event on January 22, sits right between the "entry-level" flagship from Samsung and the top-of-the-line Galaxy S25 Ultra (check out this article to learn more about its specs and see how it compares to the previous generations). However, unlike the more premium sibling, which has some visual changes over the Galaxy S24 Ultra, this year's "plus" model is nearly identical to the Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S23+. To help you better understand what is going on, here is our detailed spec-by-spec comparison. Spoiler: there are very few changes.
If you want to buy the Galaxy S25+, you will have a hard time finding many differences between the device and its predecessors. Besides a newer and more powerful processor (Samsung promises up to 40% better NPU, up to 37% faster CPU, and up to 30% better GPU, with a few exclusive features like improved ray tracing), you get Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 support, new colors, video recording in LOG, and slightly different camera rings. Samsung also touts a reworked heat dissipation system that is more efficient thanks to a 40% larger vapor chamber.
Samsung is also bringing more AI-powered features to OneUI 7, which is based on Android 15, with the promise of 7 OS upgrades. New features include Audio Eraser for noise removal in videos and improved Gemini interaction with Samsung, Google, and third-party apps. The latter lets you ask complex questions and request actions, like finding your sports team's schedule and adding it to your calendar.
Here are key changes summed up in a list:
- Newer and faster Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor
- Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 5.4 support
- New colors
- Slightly different camera design
- Video recording in LOG
