Today I got the chance to get hands on with the Galaxy S25 Edge.
Held at the fantastic looking Experience Store Samsung KX.

As part of being an Insiders Member, every now and again you get the chance to attend something like this.

To start with we got to mingle and importantly for me to get my coffee fix. They do a great cup of coffee here.

Then time for the presentation.
The team at Samsung KX really know how to present, got a few laughs and a little quiz to test our knowledge.

We got the low down on some of the key features of the new phones.
Some interesting information and facts.
I really enjoyed it.

But then the main part of why we were there.
Hands on with the new phones.
They had plenty to go round and spend time with them.

The one thing that became apparent was for me the Titanium Jetblack colour was my favourite.
The Titanium Silver and Titanium Icyblue in the lights there looked very similar.

First thing that was. The S25 Edge is light weight in hand. It's definitely thin and feels really premium.
Comparing it with the S25 Ultra of mine.
It's amazing how much heavier the S25 Ultra is compared with the S25 Edge.

Naturally im interested in the cameras and being the S25 Edge has the same 200mp camera sensor as the S25 Ultra has. All be it, on the S25 Edge its been optimised to work with the thin aspect of the phone.

As I have the S24 FE on loan to test.
Thought I'd compare the phones as well. As they are a similar size.
Apart from the thickness obviously.

Again theres a really noticeable weight difference.
The other thing is that the S24 FE is as slippery as a wet bar of soap. Makes me nervous about dropping it when I use it.
The S25 Edge in contrast is much more secure feeling in hand. I think it's a phone you could quite easily use without a case.

Got to admit I'm quite taken with the S25 Edge. Fantastic looking device.

Gave the cameras a quick test. Sadly we weren't allowed out to go around the area.
So the outside photos were taken through the windows.
I think the results are very impressive.

Even the 10X Zoom is pretty impressive as well through a glass window.

I managed to squeeze in a selfie coffee at the end of it all. Love a great coffee.

So the question is
Am I going to get oneπŸ€” 

Well with an Insiders discount, and possibly if I can stack another voucher and trade in.
It's a very strong possibility I will do.

It's hard to say no to getting the latest cutting edge technology.

Throughly good day to meet everyone one and catch up with@TechZilla and@Obsydian.

Community will be the first to know when I get my hands on the S25 Edge😁

Thanks to @Lucy and @SocietyGirl for the opportunity to attend.

Great review as always @Glenntech.
I love the S25 Edge and it feels like it's so much powerful than on paper and what I've seen in reviews. Hands on it feels like a very powerful phone.❀

From what I read on GSM Arena sensor is smaller than on the S25 Ultra. Nevertheless it is fine device...

The camera module has been resigned to fit in the phone. But the actual sensor is the same and been optimised software wise to give the best results
Certainly in the short time with the phone i was impressed
