The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge costs too much to offer this little

Since it was first teased at Unpacked in January, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge has been one of the biggest phones on my radar — largely out of curiosity and confusion. It’s a surprise fourth addition to the standard Galaxy S25 family, and in the months since that initial tease, I’ve been scratching my head trying to understand the “why” around it.

Samsung has finally revealed the Edge in full, and according to the company, the phone’s purpose is this: to be as thin and light as possible while still delivering a flagship smartphone experience. That’s what we assumed up until this point, but now that we know all of the S25 Edge’s nitty gritty details — including its exorbitant price and lacking specs — I don’t understand how Samsung thinks it achieved that goal.
