A recent incident involving the upcoming Galaxy S25 has resulted in the termination of several
Samsung employees. These individuals were reportedly dismissed after leaking images of the highly anticipated
smartphone, causing an uproar within the tech community.

Leaked images are often seen as lucrative for those working in the manufacturing sector of popular devices like
smartphones, presenting a tempting side hustle. However, for those involved in the Galaxy S25+
leaks, their decisions have cost them their jobs.

Another tweet showcasing the Galaxy S25+ also played a crucial role in identifying the employees
responsible for the leak, leading to their immediate termination. Notably, this happened just before tech
insider Evan Blass shared further details and images of the Galaxy S25+, along with the
announcement date for the new series.
While some may speculate that companies like Samsung welcome leaks as a form of marketing, the reality is often
different. Samsung executives argue that such leaks undermine the anticipation surrounding official product
launches, reducing the impact of their carefully crafted marketing strategies. The company strives to maintain
control over its public announcements rather than relying on unofficial channels to generate buzz about its new
devices.
