This viral Galaxy S25 Ultra image is fake
An alleged Galaxy S25 Ultra image is going viral, which is completely fake. Samsung could launch the flagship next year, but as we approach the release timeframe, the leaks and rumors start to float more intensively.
Southeast Asian countries always become the first to expose upcoming handsets. We’ve seen many cases with Google’s upcoming smartphones. Meanwhile, the S25 Ultra image that surfaced in a Vietnam-based Facebook group is far from reality.
The Galaxy S25 Ultra will have a quad camera on the back. The viral image has only three camera sensors on the rear side, lacking the 3x Telephoto. The ring is almost identical to the Galaxy Z Fold 6, accompanied by a dedicated island.
The volume button and power key also look weird in the leaked image. Samsung will be using a durable and lighter frame made of Titanium material. It would look rough like the S24 Ultra’s frame, not shiny like the S23 Ultra.
Earlier, aluminum dummy units of the S25 and S25 Ultra leaked online. The images revealed that the S25 Ultra corners won’t be as rounded as we expected. The sharp corners will just become rounded, not the same way as S25 and S25 Plus.
Samsung considering new flagship brand
Samsung is reportedly considering retiring Galaxy branding. The decision would only be for flagship smartphones. If the report’s input materializes, we could see the future flagship with a brand-new identity beyond Galaxy.

This Diwali, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is taking ease to new heights with Galaxy AI’s Note Assist, designed to empower users to capture, organize, and share moments with unmatched simplicity.
With just a tap, you can record heartfelt conversations, transcribe important details, and translate messages for loved ones who speak different languages.
Note Assist brings to you a true celebration of effortless connections. It ensures that every moment is preserved, shared, and understood with ease.
Samsung’s Galaxy AI promo for Diwali 2024 is a short yet nice story. An NRI came to India, who is unaware of some commonly used stuff throughout the festive season.
His relatives ask him to bring many different items from the market, requiring him to create a list. All the discussions happened in the local language, Hindi, understanding it was a bit difficult.
Thanks to Note Assist, the NRI used his Galaxy S24 Ultra to get things done. The Notes app has a transcribe feature that records and analyzes the conversation to convert it to text format.
He was regularly using the Note Assist to get list created in the Notes app. Galaxy AI showoff time comes at the end when a group realizes how he can bring those stuff due to lack of awareness.
Voila! Galaxy AI’s Note Assist has already finished the work. The list is all set, consisting of all the items that were used to be ordered by different persons for festive purposes.

The Galaxy S25 has more to prove beyond upgraded specs. Following recent struggles in the foldable phone market, the company is relying on the S25 series to revive its brand image and deliver an elevated user experience.
