Samsung’s Galaxy S25 is a great device, and it does genuinely raise the bar on smartphone AI. But for home and business users, the fact this is a device that’s all about AI has come too soon for its buyers to fully understand how to stay AI-safe, or even the questions they should ask. All that should be factored in to any decision to switch.

Probably the biggest hardware enhancement Samsung added to the Galaxy S25 Ultra is the latest and greatest in Snapdragon processing, the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset. After a little bit of time using the phone, I can confirm everything feels very speedy and responsive.

Samsung's new flagship smartphone line predictably puts AI at the forefront of its experience. They're all up for pre-order now.
