It’s finally happening, Samsung will officially launch the Galaxy S25 Edge slim phone in a few days, and you can watch the launch live stream.
Samsung originally teased this new S25 model way back in January at Unpacked with its siblings, but we’ve been waiting for it ever since. The firm has been pretty quiet about the specifics while showing off the design at events like MWC.
We know it’s got a thin design, which Samsung says is “an engineering marvel”, and one of the rear cameras is officially 200Mp, but there are plenty more things we want to know about the S25 Edge.
There’s not long to wait after some delays, as the official announcement will take place on 12/13 May, depending on where you are.
In the US, the event (not technically an Unpacked) kicks off at 8pm EDT on 12 May. That’s 1am BST (UK time) on 13 May, so get the kettle on.
You can easily watch the live stream as we’ve embedded it below.
We’ll find out from the horse’s mouth everything about the Galaxy S25 Edge, including exactly how thin it is and what it’s made of (likely a combination of materials like titanium and ceramic).
Samsung will presumably detail all the other core specs as well as the price and release date, too.

It’s something of a landmark launch in the smartphone market as it may well kick off a new breed of slim phones – if that’s even what anyone wants, when you consider the possible downsides, such as far less room for a decent battery.
