He Samsung Galaxy S25 It’s right around the corner. We expect this to be announced on January 22 at the Galaxy Unpacked event, which is expected to happen on that day, and a new leak further confirms this information, adding a few more facts that we were not aware of before.
Tipster Yukanlosreve shared the news on X, citing a “very reliable” source who confirmed that the Galaxy S25 will officially go on sale in Korea (and presumably the US) on February 7th. In addition, the source says that the Slim model will also be shown at the Unpacked event.

In another reply in the comments to his post, Jukanlosreve also confirms that the Galaxy S25 will have Snapdragon 8 Elite all over the world. Previous theories suggested that Exynos-powered flagships could still be seen in some regions, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore.
Samsung officially launches the S25 series in Korea on February 7th. It was also confirmed that the Slim model will be presented at the Unpacked event.

This leak confirmed a lot of previously leaked information, but it also supports the idea of a possible price increase. According to the source, a reporter named Jang Min Kwon from FNN News, the exchange rate has been trending upward since the martial law incident in South Korea earlier this month, and this may reflect the rising price of the Galaxy S25. .
There is no clear picture of how much the price might rise. The report claims that Samsung fears sales will decline if the price rises too much. Based on previous selling prices, as well as increases in base RAM and storage capacity, we estimate price increases of between $50 and $100. It’s not ideal, but this number is not as catastrophic as it could be.
Rumors of price hikes are nothing new, but the veracity of this information has varied over the weeks as various leaks have surfaced. We don’t have a definitive answer yet, but this new information suggests a higher starting price.
