Odds of Samsung bringing the Galaxy S25 Slim to the US sound increasingly s
 

• Samsung has long been rumored to be building a “Slim” version of the Galaxy S25.
• New claims suggest the S25 Slim may arrive similarly to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition.
• US carriers may not end up getting access to the S25 Slim, with Samsung selling it exclusively abroad.

Samsung’s latest and greatest smartphones are right around the corner, with the Galaxy S25 lineup set to debut under one week from now, on January 22. Everyone’s got their own preferences when it comes to phones; maybe you’ve got your eye on a nice, basic S25, or perhaps the camera array on the S25 Ultra has piqued your interest? This year may see Samsung add an extra option to the mix, with the possible arrival of the phone we’ve been calling the Galaxy S25 Slim. But now a new report warns that our assumptions around Samsung’s plans for this model may be in need of serious revision.

Let’s take a quick detour into Samsung’s recent past, and consider the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition. This hardware represented a sleeker revision of the Z Fold 6, and for much of the time the phone was rumored, we’d been talking about it as the Z Fold 6 Slim. You may have even had your hopes up about taking home this model, and were disappointed when it didn’t get a global release.
