With the Galaxy S25 Ultra, in 2025, the "magic" of a flagship lies in the attention to detail.
Certainly, if you can only choose a Samsung phone , users will immediately choose the
Galaxy S Ultra. But this year, the Galaxy S25 Ultra will be even more attractive, both in terms of external design and internal configuration.

Recently leaked renders have compared the Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S24 Ultra, a
nd the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra, sparking debate over how much has changed in the past two years. According to experts, this "su
per product" has achieved subtle refinements to an already "peak" design.
What is the problem with the renders?
According to the renders, the Galaxy S23 Ultra's sharp rectangular edges have
given way to slightly more rounded corners on the Galaxy S25 Ultra and thinner bezels, but these are essentially iterations of the same design.
Therefore, in terms of appearance, the difference between the Galaxy S24

Ultra and the Galaxy S25 Ultra only stops at the sharp, square or slightly rounded edges.
Unlike smartphones, car models are typically updated every five to seven years, gi
ving them enough time to deliver significant advancements and notable new designs.

Compare the “leap” between generations of a car to the annual cycle of a high-e
nd phone, and you’ll understand why changes in smartphones are so small. Carmakers can make bold design decisions because the
y have the time and the big profit margins to do so. Smartphones, however, operate within tighter constraints, driven by the relentless pace of technology and consumer demand.
In many ways, this is a reflection of the maturity of the smartphone market. After a series of “leaps and bounds” in the smartp
hone market (Sony Ericsson phones, for example, were different from Siemens and Nokia phones), the industry has thrived on refining what works.
With its boxy, rugged design, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is almost iconic in its sharp
ness. Some will welcome the move to a more rounded aesthetic like the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which is also seen as Samsung's attempt to appeal to a wider audience.

Of course, the rounded edges and flat surfaces may not be as bold as the previous generation, but they do feel comfortable and consistent, in line with modern trends.
Furthermore, these changes are not just cosmetic. The move to thinner and more uniform bezels improves display quality and can be accompanied by new hardware improvements like a higher-resolution ultra-wide camera and an advanced cooling system. These are meaningful upgrades that can enrich the user experience.

However, the rumor of removing Bluetooth functionality from the S Pen stylus is a confusing move that may disappoint longtime Samsung fans.
So are these changes significant enough to warrant Samfan's excitement?
In the opinion of experts, the "leap" from one flagship to another is no longer about bold improvements but about subtle improvements. The Galaxy S series or iPhone in general has reached a point where even small adjustments become big changes.
