Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge rumoured to have tiny battery and slow charging

Photo: SamsungThe Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge may have fallen victim to its design ambitions. A recent 3C certification in China revealed a surprisingly small 3,900mAh battery for the device despite its expected 6.7-inch display. This suggests significant compromises were made to achieve a slimmer form factor.

Furthermore, the certification indicated a 25W charging speed, a notable downgrade compared to the 45W capabilities of the larger Galaxy S25 Plus and Galaxy S25 Ultra models. These findings raise concerns about the Galaxy S25 Edge's battery life and charging times. With a smaller battery and slower charging, users may experience frequent top-ups throughout the day.

It will also supposedly be the brand's first device to integrate artificial intelligence features.

Nothing is also focusing on the phone's camera capabilities, with the company expanding its camera teams by 50%. Many smartphone AI features focus on camera capabilities, so this rumoured move isn't surprising.
