Samsung has yet to make a formal statement regarding the upcoming flagship smartphones. Nonetheless, initial signs suggest that the Galaxy S series might make a comeback sooner than this year’s models are set to launch.
Potential Release Timeline
A Vietnamese retailer has been seen distributing a survey that hints at an early January launch for the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Plus, and Galaxy S25 Ultra. The survey, which has been translated, suggests that Samsung could replace the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 Plus, and Galaxy S24 Ultra (currently priced at $930 on Amazon) around January 5. In comparison, Samsung previously revealed its current flagship models on January 17, with a subsequent release just a week later.
Pre-Order Uncertainty
However, the date mentioned in the survey does not necessarily mean that pre-orders for the Galaxy S25 series will commence on January 5, 2025. That said, it seems unusual for a retailer to issue discount vouchers for devices that haven’t been officially revealed yet. Therefore, it appears that Samsung might be aiming for a pre-CES 2025 launch for the Galaxy S25 series, potentially featuring the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset globally.
