The Galaxy S25 series is expected to be launched at the Galaxy Unpacked event, which is rumored to take place on January 22, 2025. If you’re still holding out hope that Samsung will launch the Galaxy S25 Slim alongside the rest of the S25 lineup, you’re going to be disappointed. A new leak suggests that Samsung might not launch the Galaxy S25 Slim alongside other Galaxy S25 models on January 22.
Samsung might not launch Galaxy S25 Slim with the rest of the S25 lineup.
The upcoming Galaxy S series has been spotted in the GSMA IMEI database, with model numbers SM-S931, SM-S936, and SM-S938 for the Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra. Later, the S25 slim model, SM-S937 was spotted, which falls between the S25 Plus and Ultra.
The model numbers of the upcoming Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra devices have been spotted by Assemble Debug (via Android Authority).
