The initial launch date according to the Korean report has been set for April 15 — the same date was set for Europe release as well, according to a recent Netherland-based report. However, while the specific reason for the launch postponement is still unclear, the re-adjustment of the launch date wasn't due to quality concerns but rather due to some internal changes, that happened in the Samsung team, especially in the business department.

Meanwhile, another reliable tipster Ice Universe on X has also shared the same news of postponement in his latest X post.

The Galaxy S25 Edge is a highly anticipated device launch of this year, and there seem to be various takeaways for the device even before it is released to the masses. It is one of the slimmest devices that Samsung has ever made, which translates to measuring 5.8mm in thickness.

The display, however, is expected to be the same as the Galaxy S25 Plus measuring 6.7 inches. Underneath, the S25 Edge is likely powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy same as the flagship trio.

The device is also expected to come in three colorways — Sliver, Black, and Blue. The ultra slim phone is also touted to be coming in 256GB and 512GB storage options and further have at least 12GB of RAM. Ahead of the launch, we also got to see a good look at how the device would look like in the recent renders that showed up on the web.
