Images of official Galaxy S25 series cases revealed in latest leak
Following a massive leak that revealed almost everything there is to know about the upcoming Galaxy S25 series, we are now seeing Standing Grip and leather cases that Samsung will sell for its next flagship in a single image leaked on X/Twitter by leaksters Jukanlosreve and Max Jambor.
As per the leaked image, Samsung’s official leather cases for the Galaxy S25 Plus are in two colors, gray and sky blue, and for the Galaxy S25 Ultra in three colors, black, gray, and orange. These cases seem to have metal/metallic covers instead of cutouts for the power and volume buttons.

It is worth noting that the design of the leather case is shown on the case’s retail box in its corresponding color. In the image below, the top of the box has the “Samsung” branding, while the bottom mentions the name of the compatible device and the type of case, i.e. Kindsuit Case.
In addition to this, Max also reveals the standing grip and silicon cases of all three models, including Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra. Apparently, Samsung will bring two different types of cases for its next Galaxy S25 series.
- Silicone case
- Standing Grip case

In the image above, you will be able to see Samsung’s Standing Grip case for the Galaxy S25 Plus in two colors, grey and white, and that for the Galaxy S25 Ultra in three colors, black, grey, and white. Plus, you will also see Samsung’s Silicon case for the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+ in four colors, Black, Light Blue, Mint, Blue, and Red.
But don’t worry, we’ll only get to know more about the cases and accessories that will come with the Galaxy S25 series in about a week. Samsung’s new flagship will be officially unveiled at the company’s latest Unpacked event in San Jose, California on January 22. Of course, a leak or two may reveal all the details before Samsung takes the stage, but we won’t have to wait too long either way.

Samsung reportedly starts One UI 9 (Android 17) testing on Galaxy S26
Samsung has reportedly commenced Android 17-based One UI 9 testing for the Galaxy S26 series. The first-ever Android 17 build has surfaced on Samsung’s firmware server, suggesting an early debut of the next One UI version.
An alleged Android 17 firmware has been listed on CheckFirm (via TarunVats) for the Galaxy S26 Ultra. That said, Samsung kicked off its work on the One UI 9 system for the latest flagship nearly two months earlier than usual.
Based on available information, Samsung is currently testing the BZC5 build on the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Samsung will take its time to refine this new operating system for Galaxy devices and will not rush the release of the firmware.
Although testing for One UI 9 has commenced early, this does not imply that it will become available to customers any sooner. Samsung will take the necessary time to optimize this new operating system for Galaxy devices and will not rush the firmware release.

Samsung is likely readying One UI 8.5 beta 7 for the Galaxy S25 series
On February 25, Samsung launched the Galaxy S26 series, and these phones will be available starting March 11. A day later, the company began rolling out Beta 6 for the Galaxy S25 series, but it seems this may not be the last beta before the stable version is released. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S25 series is still receiving updates through the One UI 8.5 beta program.
Samsung One UI 8.5 beta 7
A reliable tipster, @TarunVats, spotted a new One UI 8.5 beta build for the Galaxy S25 series on testing systems. The build ending in ZZC3 indicates that Samsung is preparing the seventh beta update for the S25 phones. It’s worth noting that this build began rolling out in March, but the patch level is still February 2026.
The new build suggests that the beta program is still active even after the Galaxy S26 series launched with One UI 8.5 features and improvements. Galaxy S25 Users may have to wait a little longer for the final stable update.
The latest One UI 8.5 Beta 6 update fixed many problems and improved the phone’s performance, including Bixby, Gallery, Now Bar, Now Brief, Display settings, Modes, and Routines.
At this time, Samsung hasn’t officially confirmed how many more beta updates will arrive or when the stable One UI 8.5 version will be released for the Galaxy S25 series and older phones. However, the new beta build is a strong indication that at least one more beta update is on the way. Galaxy S25 users who are part of the beta program should keep an eye out for new updates.
