The presentation of new flagships from Samsung takes place annually in January, and the closer we get to it, the more rumors about new smartphones appear. This time, a well-known Ice Universe insider says that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will be one of the thinnest and lightest among the big flagships.
The S25 Ultra will be the thinnest and lightest of all Ultra flagship phones to be released soon, including iPhone 16 Pro Max and Pixel 9 Pro XL.

For comparison, the Pixel 9 Pro XL is 8.5 millimeters thick and weighs 221 grams. Last year's iPhone 15 Pro Max is 8.3 millimeters thick and weighs 221 grams. If we expect that the size of the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max models will not change much, then the Galaxy S25 Ultra should be 8.2 millimeters thick, 0.4 millimeters smaller than the S24 Ultra, and lighter than 221 grams.
Earlier, it was also reported that Samsung's new flagships might get a version with only Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, skipping Exynos processors in this generation entirely. In addition, there were rumors of improved cameras in the Ultra model.
