Samsung is ready to launch its flagship smartphone in 2025. The launch date has not been made official by the company yet, but there have been several reports suggesting that the launch will take place on January 22. Now, while we wait for Samsung to confirm the launch date, another leak suggests that the Galaxy S25 series will launch in Samsung’s home market, South Korea, on February 7, 2025. This will take place two weeks after the rumored Galaxy Unpacked event. This timeline aligns with Samsung’s usual two-week pre-order period for new Galaxy devices.

Pre-orders for the Galaxy S25 in South Korea are reportedly scheduled to run from January 24 to February 3, 2025, with deliveries and in-store availability starting on February 7. For international markets, including the US, pre-order dates are expected. To be similar, will probably start around January 22 or 23 and close in early February. For context, Samsung followed a similar schedule for the Galaxy S24, which was announced on January 17, 2024, with pre-orders starting immediately and the phone becoming available by January 31.

Traditionally, the flagship Galaxy series is launched on the same day as the global release, which is usually around the first week of February. The leaked timeline appears to be consistent with this, making it seem credible.

The latest leak also confirms that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will come with 16GB of RAM, but it will be exclusive to 512GB and 1TB storage variants. The base 256GB model will feature 12GB of RAM instead. Meanwhile, the standard Galaxy S25 and S25+ are rumored to offer 12GB of RAM by default, which is a notable improvement over the Galaxy S24, which came with only 8GB of RAM in its base configuration.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is expected to consist of four smartphones: Samsung Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Plus, Galaxy S25 Slim, and Galaxy S25 Ultra. However, the Galaxy S25 Slim – Samsung’s thinnest phone to date, with a waistline of around 6mm – is believed to be showcased only at the event. Its availability is rumored to be scheduled for sometime in the second half of 2025.

Along with the Galaxy S25 series, Samsung is also expected to unveil the next-generation Galaxy Ring at the Galaxy Unpacked event next month. The ring is also expected to be made available a few months after the official launch.
