The new Galaxy S25 Ultra starts at $1,300 for 256GB of storage. It is also available in 512GB and 1TB. All configurations have 12GB of RAM.
Color options include Titanium Silverblue, Titanium Whitesilver, Titanium Grey, and Titanium Black. If you buy directly from Samsung, you can also choose from three exclusive colors: Titanium Pinkgold, Titanium Jetblack, and Titanium Jadegreen.
The Galaxy S25 Ultra has a 6.9-inch QHD+ AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. That’s from the S24 Ultra’s 6.8-inch screen. The screen is covered with an improved Corning Gorilla Armor 2 – a first of its kind glass-ceramic with anti-reflective surface treatment for anti-scratch and glare reduction. The phone has an IP68 water- and dust-resistance rating (meaning it can survive a dunk in fresh water for 30 minutes).
The rear cameras have a 200MP wide, 50MP ultra wide and two telephoto lenses, one 10MP and one 50MP. Last year’s Ultra had a similar camera lineup, except the ultra wide only got 12MP. On the front is a wide, 12MP selfie cam.
The battery capacity is listed at 5,000mAh, which is the largest capacity in the S25 family and the same as the previous S24 Ultra. At 218 grams, the phone is also a full 15 grams lighter than last year and 0.4mm thinner at 8.2mm. Connectivity stats include Wi-Fi 7, 5G, and Ultra Wideband. Of the S-series phones, only the Ultra model comes with an S Pen, which resides in the integrated pen slot.
For exclusive colors, you must order directly from Samsung. The site now offers enhanced trade-in credit on pre-orders as well as free storage upgrades. But, as is often the case, Amazon is trying to entice you to buy from its site by offering a free gift card for pre-order the phone from its site. Now a $200 Amazon gift card ships with the S25 Ultra. Best Buy has a similar gift card offer.
