Fresh leak reveals Galaxy S25 Edge’s charging speed
A 25W changing support, paired with the Samsung’s thin phone’s presumably small battery, is a disaster waiting to happen.

Samsung just launched the Galaxy S25 series, which isn’t truly exciting this year.
The company hasn’t changed its design for years, and even this year, it remained mostly unchanged, except for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which has a more boxy look.
Interestingly, all eyes are now on the fourth member of the Galaxy S25 series, the proverbial Galaxy S25 Edge (previously presumed to be called the Galaxy S25 Slim).
Samsung only teased the Galaxy S25 Edge’s design at the Galaxy Unpacked. Now, a fresh leak from 91Mobiles has revealed the device’s charging specs, which is disappointing.
A 25W charging support doesn’t make the Galaxy S25 Edge look exciting
The folks at 91Mobiles spotted the Galaxy S23 Edge on the Chinese 3C certification website with the model number SM-S9370.
The Galaxy S25 Edge would have 25W charging support, according to the listing.

The Galaxy S25 Edge’s charging speed is 25W, the same as the vanilla Galaxy S25, but it is quite slower compared to the 45W charging speed of the Galaxy S25 Plus and S25 Ultra.
Moreover, the Galaxy S25 Edge’s place in the lineup is supposed to be between the Galaxy S25 Plus and the S25 Ultra.
So, a 25W charging support doesn’t really make the device interesting, and the consumers will also see it the same way.
The charging speeds of Samsung’s flagship devices are way behind that of Chinese brands.
For comparison, OnePlus offered 65W charging support to its flagships in 2020, but it has now upgraded to 80W in the US and 100W in other regions.
Meanwhile, Samsung is still stuck at 45W max charging support, which isn’t even accessible through its base model flagship phones.
Now, disappointingly, the sleek-looking Galaxy S25 Edge will reportedly feature the same slow charging speed.
The Galaxy S25 Edge is also much thinner than the standard Galaxy S25 and is expected to pack a smaller battery unless Samsung moves to a Silicon Carbon battery.
Either way, it looks more and more like the Galaxy S25 Edge will have a shabby battery life, and with its disappointing charging speed, it seems like the device will spend more time connected to the wall socket than in your hands.
