According to previous leaks, the Galaxy S25 FE will use the Dimensity 9400 instead of the Exynos 2500 or a modified version of it, which means that a significant performance boost can be expected. On top of that, a report from South Korea suggests that the phone will be much thinner than its predecessor.
A redesign of the internal components could be necessary
According to the report, Samsung has achieved a reduction in thickness by using a larger but slimmer battery and aims to release the S25 FE as a “slim” model. In order to use a larger battery, Samsung will need to redesign the other components inside.
For context, the Galaxy S24 FE measures 8mm in thickness, weighs 213g, and packs a 6.7″ display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. On the inside, it packs a 4700 mAh battery, up from 4000 mAh of the Galaxy S24.
While high-density silicon-carbon anode batteries are available in the market, which offer a significantly slimmer form factor than a standard graphite anode battery with the same capacity, the source didn’t mention the use of this tech.
That said, the Galaxy S25 FE is expected to adopt a 6.7″ display, similar to the Galaxy S24 FE. The phone is expected to launch sometime in the second half of next year.
While details on the upcoming FE model are scarce at the moment, we can refer to the S24 FE to get an idea of what it will look like.
The phone's design is very similar to the Galaxy S24 and it also retains its IP68 dust and water resistance rating. On the camera front, the latest FE model also features a very similar camera setup to the base model, with a slightly lower resolution 3x telephoto (8MP instead of 10MP).
However, the Galaxy S24 is slightly thinner (7.6mm thick), lighter and smaller. While Samsung has increased the display size of its FE devices from 6.4 inches to 6.7 inches starting this year, the reduction in thickness may be an attempt to match the base flagship in terms of looks.
