According to reports, Samsung plans to employ a titanium frame that is thinner than that of its rivals in order to save weight for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. A mere 10-gram drop in weight would surpass the previous record held by the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which weighed a whopping 232 grams.
Additionally, titanium’s strength-to-weight ratio enables a thinner, sufficiently durable shell, which is claimed to be the secret to a lighter structure. Samsung will continue to use the Grade 2 titanium rear panel that it previously employed, according to some tipsters.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra’s rumored details and features
As anticipated given that the Pixel 9 Pro XL is composed of aluminum and glass rather than titanium, the information shared by Ice Universe on X also stated that the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra would weigh less than the latter.
Nonetheless, the most recent rumor suggests that the 232-gram Galaxy S24 Ultra will weigh more than its counterpart. It is unclear, though, whether the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will be able to lose weight in comparison to the 221-gram iPhone 15 Pro Max.
Ice Universe’s most recent assertion may not be totally true, as an earlier leak suggested the phone might be 8.4mm thick.
Although the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s decreased weight and smaller waist may not seem like a significant issue on paper, they should make the phone simpler to hold and more comfortable. To a certain extent, this will also assist Samsung in defending the shipment of its 2025 Ultra flagship, which has a battery capacity of 5,000mAh, the same as its 2020 flagship.
Samsung is rumored to be planning to rebrand the Galaxy S25 Ultra as the Galaxy S25 Note. But keep in mind that these are only rumors, so proceed with caution. According to early reports, the Galaxy S25 Ultra would have the best-in-class display and cameras, with the cameras boasting upgraded sensors and lenses.
