With an expected launch in January 2025, Samsung’s Galaxy S family will again set the smartphone tone for the first half of the year. It looks like Samsung is preparing a significant update for the S25 family in general and the Galaxy S25 Ultra in particular. Why else would you give it the internal codename of “paradigm”?

Samsung's base and Plus flagship phones have used the same main camera for years now, but that might not change with the Galaxy S25 or S26.

This image also allows you to see the curvature difference. The Galaxy S24+’s corners have a higher curve level than the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s. Considering that the Galaxy S24 Ultra has sharp corners, this is quite a change.
