Galaxy S25 Ultra has larger vapor chamber to AI processing runs smoothly
Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 series at Galaxy Unpacked with some hardware improvements and many in terms of software. Notably, the Galaxy S25 Ultra features a larger vapor chamber heat dissipation system than its predecessors.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra device boasts an optimal thermal control system with a 1.9 times larger vapor chamber compared to the Galaxy S23 Ultra, and the Galaxy S25 Ultra has improved it even further, improving the device’s surface temperature while also maximizing sustained performance power.
According to Samsung, the Galaxy S25 Ultra has a 40% larger vapor chamber than the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which helps all intensive device usage and AI processing run smoothly. This is a big upgrade over the Galaxy S24 series.
In addition to this, the Ultra phone has a tailored thermal interface material (TIM) that delivers extra improvement in thermal efficiency.
The Galaxy S25 Ultra can maintain the processor’s top performance for longer with the large cooling system and tailored thermal interface material. This means you won’t experience hiccups, stutters, frame drops, or overheating when you run the phone under tough workloads for long periods of time.
Furthermore, the Galaxy S25 Ultra won’t experience significant performance degradation or overheating even when playing multiple back-to-back sessions of heavy games,
An image shared on X/Twitter by TechHome100 shows a head-to-head comparison of the two. This image shows that the S25 Ultra’s vapor chamber cooling area is much larger than that of the S24 Ultra. This makes sense considering that the device is slightly smaller and thinner than its predecessor.
Samsung introduced three new phones at the Galaxy Unpacked 2024 event – the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra. The tripod phones come with several improvements over their previous models. These include brighter screens, faster processors, several new features, better camera quality, and slightly longer battery life.
Samsung is working on the One UI 8.5 based on Android 16 QPR2 on the Galaxy S25 series. The One UI 8.5 is Samsung’s latest version of Android customisation for Galaxy smartphones. Now, the reportred tha Samsung may offers more refined UI design for the upcoming One UI 9, which is based on Android 17.
With One UI 8.5, Samsung has replaced the rectangular bottom bar with the rectangular tabs found in One UI 8.
According to @tarunvats33, One UI 9 will further enhance the pill-shaped design across all apps. Therefore, Samsung fans are hoping the company will add frosted glass and smoother animations in the upcoming update.
A tipster shared images of Quick Share from One UI 9.0 on their X handle. As you can see in the images below:
It has a more compact floating pill-shaped bottom bar compared to One UI 8.5, and the tabs also look more rounded.
We expect One UI 9 to officially launch around July 2026, probably alongside the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Flip 8. On the other hand, Samsung hasn’t yet confirmed when One UI 9 will arrive, so keep an eye on the Samsung Members app for the official roadmap later this spring.
This update will be based on the Android 17 operating system. The foldable devices will be the first to launch with the latest OS pre-installed.
Samsung is gearing up to launch its next flagship S series smartphones, the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra, and now we have the latest “possible” look via unofficial leaked renders, showing the phones in black from different angles.
Certain tipsters have suggested the design of the new Galaxy S26 series way before its launch. Some said that it could bring a vertical pill shape bump in the base layer, encompassing three rings on the back, just like its predecessor, while others are now hinting at a box-like imaging system.
Amid this confusion, alleged renders of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Plus and Galaxy S26 Ultra are emerging from YTECHB, showing what the devices could actually look like. It may adopt stunning dynamic shades this time: Black, showing the device from all angles.
Looking at the renders in detail, the biggest design change is the rear camera on the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Instead of the old separate rings, it now features a single camera island inspired by the Galaxy Z Fold 7, giving the back a clean, modern look.
With the launch approaching on February 25th, official renders of the Galaxy S26 series have leaked, and we expect more interesting leaks to emerge soon. Samsung has also started taking pre-reservations for it in many countries, including the US and India.
Here’s how it looks.
Samsung is preparing to launch its new Galaxy S series phones, the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra, later this month. We’ve already seen numerous leaks and rumors about these devices, detailing their specifications and indicating that the launch is imminent. Now, a reliable industry insider has provided new information about 4 design changes coming to the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra.
Leaker “IceUniverse” has shared new information about four design changes for the Galaxy S26 Ultra. According to the leak, the Galaxy S26 Ultra will have slightly more rounded corners, giving it a softer overall look.
Regarding the second change, the Galaxy S26 Ultra has a slightly larger front camera cutout. This is due to the front camera’s wider field of view, which should allow more people to fit into group selfies.
Furthermore, there is no difference in the bezel width between the Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Fourth, and most importantly, the Galaxy S26 Ultra has a slightly larger display. It measures 6.89 inches, compared to the 6.86-inch display of the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
Recently, disappointing news for fans has emerged from an online listing. It appears that Samsung has not included Qi2 magnets in the device. Users will need to purchase compatible accessories to utilize Qi2 charging.
Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series will be officially launched on February 25th. The event will take place in San Francisco, and an official livestream will be available for fans. More details will be revealed as the launch date approaches. Stay tuned.
