Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge is making waves with its focus on innovative design, featuring top-tier specifications within a remarkably thin 5.84mm frame. The device has been designed to impress with its flagship features and cutting-edge camera capabilities. Apple is preparing to respond with the iPhone 17 Air, which might be even thinner, potentially around 5.5mm based on recent reports, indicating a strong push for ultra-slim designs.
The Galaxy S25 Edge integrates premium features within its compact design. It boasts a 6.7-inch LTPO AMOLED 2X display with Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2. Its camera setup includes a 200MP wide lens with an f/1.7 aperture, 1/1.56” sensor with PDAF and OIS, and a 12MP ultrawide front-facing camera. A 3900mAh battery with 25W wired charging is included.
Apple’s iPhone 17 Air is expected to come with a 6.7-inch OLED screen featuring HDR support. The processing power is likely to come from an A19 (3nm) chipset with a hexa-core architecture and an Apple GPU. The device will operate on iOS 19. Storage options are expected to be 128GB with 12GB RAM, 256GB with 12GB RAM, and 512GB with 12GB RAM. It will have a single-camera setup that includes a 48MP sensor with a dual-tone LED flash and HDR support and a 12MP front camera. Given the rumored 5.5mm thickness, there is speculation about the battery life, which might be less than the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge’s 3900mAh battery. There are rumors of Apple possibly providing a specialized case to enhance battery longevity.
