Samsung Galaxy S25 finally gets an ETA as release date leaks

[phillynews215]

• Samsung is expected to announce the Galaxy S25 at Unpacked on January 22.
• Following that, pre-orders would open ahead of a possible February 7 release date.
• While the S25 Slim may make an appearance, it shouldn’t arrive until later in the year.

We are just under one month away from January 22, when Samsung is expected to throw its next Galaxy Unpacked event and formally unveil its Galaxy S25 smartphone lineup. And while we’re very much looking forward to finally resolving some of the outstanding questions about how this hardware will take shape, and actually get a chance to go hands-on with it for ourselves, there’s another date that’s probably much more relevant to all of you eager to bring one of these models home: the release date. Now a new report attempts to shine some light on when Samsung’s next-gen flagships will hit retail.

This past year, you might remember, Samsung introduced the Galaxy S24 at an Unpacked event on January 17, and opened pre-orders ahead of a January 31 release date. With the actual announcement expected for slightly later in 2025, it’s only understandable that availability would similarly slide back to match. Now a new report from South Korea’s Financial News claims that Samsung intends to release the Galaxy S25 in its home nation, at least, on February 7. While this source does not make direct mention of other markets, we’d expect international availability to largely align.
