Get $315 off the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge for Prime Day

Big screens are ubiquitous now in the smartphone space, so manufacturers are now returning to another familiar friend to make their handsets stand out: thinness. In May, Samsung launched the the Galaxy S25 Edge and it's on sale for Prime Day now — down to $785, which is $315 less than usual.

The Galaxy S25 Edge includes the best of Samsung's Galaxy S25+ in a thinner and sturdier package. The S25 Edge is just 0.23 inches (5..8mm) thick, with a titanium frame, IP68 water and dust resistance and a Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 panel covering its OLED screen. The phone is also fast and performant, with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, 12GB of RAM and either 256GB or 512GB of storage. Really, the main ways the S25 Edge is a compromise are in the omissions Samsung made to keep it slim and light.

For example, the S25 Edge doesn't have a telephoto lens, so zoomed in photographs have to happen entirely digitally. The phone also has a noticeably smaller battery at 3,900 mAh, which in our tests meant the phone lasted for a little over 25 hours on a single charge, shorter than both the base S25 and the S25 Ultra. Samsung also cut corners with wireless charging. The S25 Edge is "Qi2 ready" but doesn't actually include the magnetic coils necessary to take advantage of the charging standard's main features. Instead, if you want to wirelessly charge the S25 Edge at Qi2 speeds, you need to put it in a case, taking away some of its thinness in the process.

For $300 off, those compromises could be very easy to set aside, though. In Engadget's review of the Galaxy S25 Edge, the phone made the most sense as a way to make Samsung's mid-tier phones interesting. It costs the same $1,100 as the Samsung Galaxy S25+ and features many of the same components, but looks and feels different to use. At $785, the Galaxy S25 Edge is now the same price as the base S25 was at launch, and an even more compelling purchase.
