The wait is finally over. Samsung has officially announced that its ultra-thin Galaxy S25 Edge will be unveiled during a virtual Unpacked event on Monday, May 12, at 8 PM ET (5 PM PT). After months of teases and sneak peeks, we're about to see the full reveal of what Samsung calls "more than a slim smartphone".

First previewed at January's Unpacked event, the S25 Edge promises to be an engineering marvel that combines flagship performance with exceptional portability. Samsung describes it as having "every curve, contour, and component" reflecting "a breakthrough in precise engineering".

The most exciting confirmation? The S25 Edge will feature a powerful 200MP main camera sensor, matching the premium S25 Ultra despite its incredibly thin profile. Samsung promises it will "deliver pro-grade capabilities to intuitively capture the world around you".

For those already sold on Samsung's slimmest phone yet, reservations are now open with a $50 credit toward your purchase. The launch event will be streamed live on Samsung's YouTube channel and website.

With smartphone sales slowing industry-wide, Samsung is positioning the S25 Edge to "herald a new chapter of expansion for the mobile sector". Will this ultra-slim powerhouse revitalize the market? We'll find out on May 12.
