The new Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+, S25 Ultra and Galaxy Ring ...

The first new phone flagship of the year is landing at Telstra soon. With pre-orders opening this morning (with sweet deals thrown in) for the phones, let’s take a look at what these new models  can do before they hit the market.

Meet the Samsung Galaxy S25 Series 

There are three new devices on offer in the new S25 series. It includes:

They’re all built with a seamless design with strength and style in equal measure.

Samsung is this year focusing on improving your everyday experiences: battery life, camera, convenience and of course - AI at the centre of everything. 

Across the whole family, you can interact with Galaxy AI to perform tasks the same way you would naturally ask a person. For example – asking it to start your day with a rundown of all the information you need to know with Now Brief.

Samsung Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+

With screens measuring 6.2-inches and 6.7-inches respectively, the Samsung Galaxy S25 and Samsung Galaxy S25+ are sleek, strong and set for anything.

The new devices come with improved performance, cameras and of course, all the features that Galaxy AI has to offer.

The S25 is the perfect all-rounder, with a great 50MP Pro main camera so you don’t sacrifice a single pixel of quality; a bright and versatile screen and a strong yet stylish design. The S25+ steps up the experience with a larger screen that lets your content sing.

The S25+ packs power to take you from day-to-night with a 4900Mah battery. The S25, meanwhile, won’t leave you hanging, with a 4000mAh battery designed to last you all the way through your workday, workout and in-between.

Both devices are packing Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip for optimised performance that goes for longer thanks to an even better built-in cooling system. Heat is what slows down chips, so the addition of better venting means you can go harder for longer on your devices.

If you need even more power, however, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is perfect.

This is it. The flagship. Samsung’s opening serve for 2025. Based on the specs and design, it looks to be an ace.

Packed to the brim with the AI power and made from a light and strong titanium frame, the sleek, premium and light Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is all about quality.

Under the hood there’s the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, designed to power Galaxy AI so you can work hard and play even harder all day long. The built-in S-Pen is back for advanced productivity and nifty new features have also been added like the ability to use it as a camera remote – great for those astrophotography shots.

Adding to it’s epic 200MP main camera, you can now capture your biggest moments with next level quality on the Galaxy S25 Ultra, using a new 50MP Ultrawide lens with increased light aperture. Galaxy S25 Ultra is also powered with an advanced pro-visual engine and upgraded Nightography for pro-level shots, day and night.

Staring back at you is the immersive 6.9-inch QHD+ display, which Samsung says is the Ultra’s biggest, brightest and clearest yet. The massive real estate means you can multi-task with ease. Nothing like having your emails and your sport streaming on the same screen at once.

And it’s all powered by the Ultra 5000mAh battery to keep you going with it all day. Game and stream with the power that keeps you connected for longer.

Introducing the Samsung Galaxy Ring

Samsung is introducing a new era of AI-enhanced health on your finger and you can get it on your hands from 23 January for just $699.      The Galaxy Ring combines sleek design with discreet technology and a powerful battery for 24/7 wear so your health insights are captured every day. 

It’s crafted with solid titanium for a comfortably lightweight but durable feel and comes in nine eleven sizes and three finishes: Titanium Black, Titanium Silver, and Titanium Gold (not all ring sizes and finish combinations are available). There's a trio of sensors that subtly monitor your heart rate, skin temperature and fitness activity, which Galaxy AI analyses to give you actionable, personalised insights. 

Galaxy Ring’s everyday wellness features such as Energy Score, Wellness Tips, and Sleep Coaching also use this data to deliver tips and learnings to your health dashboard in Samsung Health.

Understanding your health, wellbeing, and fitness has never been easier. Head to a Telstra store near you to get your hands on one.
