Samsung is gearing up to launch its new Galaxy S25 series, which promises to significantly improve performance and power efficiency.
The Galaxy S25 series will feature more advanced RAM technology, switching from 13nm LPDDR5X RAM used in the Galaxy S24 series to 12nm RAM chips. This upgrade is expected to reduce the overall power consumption across the lineup.
Samsung has chosen 12nm RAM chips supplied by Micron for the initial production batches. However, the company plans to integrate more Samsung-made RAMs into later batches.
The smaller 12nm node will consume less power, generate less heat, and improve performance, making the Galaxy S25 series more efficient.
Samsung Galaxy S25 series RAM options
The Galaxy S25 series could be powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. This combination of advanced RAM and a powerful chipset is expected to deliver faster and smoother performance.
Notably, the standard Galaxy S25 model will finally move up to 12GB RAM after sticking to 8 GB for several generations.

Rumours suggested the Galaxy S25 Ultra will feature a 50MP ultra-wide camera, a 200MP main camera, and a 50MP 5x periscope camera. The S25 Ultra is also expected to support 25W wireless charging.
Moreover, the Galaxy S25 Slim, another rumoured model, is expected to have a 6.6-inch AMOLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and a battery capacity of around 4,500 to 5,000 mAh.
The Galaxy S25 series is set to feature the Qualcomm AP, Snapdragon 8 Elite, across all models, marking the first time in two years that all Galaxy S models have adopted Qualcomm APs.
