The layout of the highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge has been leaked, offering a glimpse into the design of this sleek variant in the Galaxy S25 family. While not as advanced as the Galaxy S25 Ultra, the S25 Edge maintains a familiar layout that seamlessly integrates with its counterparts. Marketing materials previously shared by Samsung have now been complemented by a new layout sheet, providing a clearer picture of what to expect from the S25 Edge. Despite subtle differences in the camera setup on the rear, the S25 Edge closely resembles other models in the series. Designed to appeal to those who prioritize aesthetics, this phone showcases a familiar layout with minor tweaks to enhance user experience.

It appears that the S25 Edge will adopt a similar approach to stereo sound by utilizing the earpiece as one of the speakers, with only one visible speaker on the device. The positioning of the SIM tray at the bottom remains unchanged. Overall, the layout remains familiar, with the true differences likely to be felt in the user's hands when holding the phone.
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is poised to directly rival the rumored iPhone 17 Air, catering to users with a penchant for stylish and cutting-edge technology. As Apple plans to phase out the Plus models in favor of the Air series, the competition between the S25 Edge and the iPhone 17 Air is set to intensify. With both devices expected to feature unique design elements, the S25 Edge may hit the market before the iPhone 17 Air, boasting advanced hardware such as the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and impressive camera capabilities. This strategic move by Samsung and Apple reflects a shift towards sleeker, more refined smartphones that prioritize aesthetics alongside performance.
