Samsung adds the Galaxy S25 Edge to their Galaxy S Series
Designed for trendsetters who seek the unconventional, the Galaxy S25 Edge is a new category-defining smartphone that offers you all the goodness of the Galaxy S Series in a slim built that weighs close to nothing. With a thin 5.8mm chassis and a weight of 163g, the Galaxy S25 Edge reimagines every element of smartphone design for an even more compact and convenient experience while still providing protection for everyday use in its latest Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2, which delivers engineered toughness for the front display.

The Galaxy S25 Edge is able to keep its cool too after sustained use, thanks to a reconfigured vapor chamber that is now thinner yet broader for steady heat dissipation. Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Mobile Platform for Galaxy, you'll be able to get on-device AI processing capabilities and reliably fast performance all day. It provides efficient AI image processing as well, with ProScaler, which delivers a 40% improvement in display image scaling quality, while incorporating Samsung's customised mobile Digital Natural Image engine.

In addition to the new slim build, the Galaxy S25 Edge also comes with a great camera system featuring a 200MP wide lens that offers ultra-high resolution for sharper photos and clearer shots with large pixel size even in low-light environments, and a 12MP ultra-wide sensor for autofocus to deliver detailed macro photography. It also uses the same ProVisual Engine that was optimised for the Galaxy S25 with pro-grade enhancements, such as ensuring sharp details for clothes or pants and natural, true-to-life skin tone in portraits. You even get access to Galaxy AI-powered editing features, which include Audio Eraser and Drawing Assist, Google Gemini and AI experiences to help with everyday productivity. The Galaxy S25 Edge is available for pre-order now at $1,628 (12GB + 256GB) and $1,808 (12GB + 512GB), and comes in a range of colours including Titanium Silver, Titanium Jetblack and Titanium Icyblue.

Samsung has begun taking pre-orders for its 500Hz OLED gaming monitor
It won't make you a better gamer, but Samsung's latest gaming monitor entices those hunting for faster refresh rates. The company's newest Odyssey OLED G6, which Samsung claims is the world's first OLED gaming monitor with a 500Hz refresh rate, is now available for pre-order in Southeast Asian markets, with a global rollout due to follow later this year. Samsung first announced the display, along with its sibling with 4K resolution called the Odyssey OLED G8 , right before CES 2025 in January. The monitor is up for sale in a silver colorway on Samsung Singapore's site for around 1,500 Singapore dollars, or around $1,150. The Odyssey OLED G6 is expected to see its first shipments starting May 18. For certain gamers, a high refresh rate could mean the difference between life and death in competitive first-person shooters like Counter-Strike 2 or Valorant . With most professional gamers using monitors that have a 240Hz refresh rate, Samsung's latest offering has more than double the speed to emphasize more responsive and smoother gameplay. Beyond its groundbreaking refresh rate, the Odyssey OLED G6 has a 2,560 x 1,440 resolution and a response time of 0.03ms for less motion blur and ghosting in fast-paced action games. As with any OLED monitor, burn-in is a serious drawback that leaves a faint impression of a bright image even when the screen is blank. To combat this, Samsung includes its OLED Safeguard+ technology, which uses a cooling system to lower operating temps and a detection system that automatically reduces the brightness of static images like logos and taskbars. Samsung put its Odyssey OLED G6 up for pre-order first in Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia, and will roll it out in phases to other countries.
