Samsung announced the new Galaxy S25 Series back in January , a three-phone collection that competes with Google’s Pixels for the title of the best Android phones you can buy right now. Out of the new lineup, the Galaxy S25+ is the middle-of-the-pack model, and a cheaper alternative to the top-of-the-line Galaxy S25 Ultra, and currently, you can pick on up for $799.99 ($200 off the original $999.99 retail price).
After the discount, the S25+ is only $90 more than the most basic model, the Galaxy S25 , offering much better value for your money.
The S25 line offers from upgrades from the S24 lineup : The best features in the OS are shared by all Galaxy phones, giving you new features you can only get from the One UI 7, including exclusive media and notifications features. Two of the best are Now Bar and Now Brief, which show you brief alerts or notifications personalized to your feed and activities. PCMag gave the Galaxy S25 an “excellent” review for its useful AI features, better battery life than the Ultra (around 15 hours on a single charge), outstanding cameras, and long software support.
Arguably, the best competition for the Galaxy S25+ is the Google Pixel 9 , which is currently the same $799.99 price. If you’re already in the Google or Samsung ecosystem, the best option for you will be to stay loyal to your brand, unless you plan on swapping out every other accessory.
The Galaxy S25+ runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, has three rear lenses, including a 12MP ultra-wide camera, and a 6.7-inch and 120Hz OLED display. The RAM is a generous 12GB, with the storage options starting at 128 GB, but this $799.99 option is for the 256GB.
