On the other hand, the Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, which is expected to come with a laptop-like 14.6-inch 120Hz OLED display, measures just 0.55cm thin and weighs 650g. Furthermore, it could feature memory variants such as 8/12GB RAM and 128/512GB.
Surprisingly, it is expected to feature dual front cameras of an 8MP wide-angle camera and a 5MP ultra-wide camera. S Pen will be included with each model. Lastly, the Tab S8 lineup will be available in Wi-Fi, LTE, and 5G variants, while pricing could start from $740, $1,120, and $1,320 for the Galaxy Tab S8, Tab S8+, and Tab S8 Ultra respectively.
Samsung Galaxy S25+ (Plus) will continue the legacy of S-series smartphones but we may not see any major difference in specifications. The rumors suggest that Samsung has been working on a slim model. This model could focus on design rather than specifications and might replace the Plus model.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus Price and Release
The S25 Plus could come with a starting price of $1000 in the US. The phone’s 512GB storage model could cost you nearly $120 extra with 12GB RAM. The company could unveil the new flagships sometime in January next year.
Samsung may launch its first tri-fold smartphone in 2025. Following the launch of Huawei Mate XT, industry sources and Korean media outlets reported that Honor will also be entering the tri-fold device market.
Recently, Korean leaker yeux1122 claimed that Samsung is developing the Galaxy Z Fold with a tri-fold screen, which is likely to release the device as early as 2025.
Unlike the Mate XT, Samsung’s tri-fold could use a dual inward-folding hinge. The different design approach will allow for an independent external screen.
This redesign will enhance the phone’s usability and multitasking capabilities. Notably, foldable displays generally work as both the main and cover screen.
This year, Samsung’s phone lineup has been relatively subdued. The company acknowledged that changes to its product lineup are gradual, but it has promised significant changes next year.
Other reports have made similar claims, stating that a three-screen Galaxy Fold is in development, suggesting Samsung is taking its foldable technology in a new direction.
The development of folding panels is advancing rapidly, with more vendors entering the competition. It seems Samsung may be preparing for a big leap forward in the foldable market.
Apart from this, the source pointed out that a Special Edition of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is in development, and it is expected to launch alongside the standard Galaxy Z Fold 7.
Many significant upgrades from Samsung are anticipated in 2025, as it is also mentioned that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE will be released together with the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Samsung Galaxy S25 will launch in early 2025 with new specifications including an improved display, new display, optimized battery life, new software features, and more. This standard Galaxy S25 offers different capabilities including the following.
