Samsung Galaxy S25 vs Galaxy S24. Everything that has changed (and what has not) between the two generations

At last! The wait has been worth it: we already know what the new Samsung Galaxy S25 and how they remain compared to the previous generation. It’s been a journey of rumors, leaks and expectations, but they’re here. In this article we are going to break down the specifications of the base model, the Samsung Galaxy S25and we are going to compare it with its equal from the last generation, the Samsung Galaxy S24. Will it be worth taking the generational leap? samsung galaxy s24 samsung galaxy s25 Dimensions and weight 147 x 70.6 x 7.6mm 167g 146.9 x 70.5 x 7.2mm 162g screen 6.2 inches FHD+ (2,340 x 1,080p) Dynamic AMOLED 120Hz Vision Booster 6.2 inches FHD+ (2,340 x 1,080p) Dynamic AMOLED 120Hz Vision Booster processor Samsung Exynos 2400 4nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 3nm memory 8GB 12GB storage 128 | 256 | 512GB 128 | 256 | 512GB battery 4,000 mAh Charge 25W 15W wireless charging Reversible charging 4,000 mAh Charge 25W 15W wireless charging Reversible charging operating system Android 14 OneUI 6.1 Android 15 OneUI 7 front camera 12MP (f/2.2, 80º) 12MP (f/2.2, 80º) rear cameras Main: 50MP (f/1.8, 85º, OIS) Wide angle: 12MP (f/2.2, 120º) Telephoto lens: 10MP (f/2.4, OIS, 3x) Main: 50MP (f/1.8, 85º, OIS) Wide angle: 12MP (f/2.2, 120º) Telephoto lens: 10MP (f/2.4, OIS, 3x) connectivity 5G LTE WiFi 6E Bluetooth 5.3 eSIM 5G LTE Wi-Fi 7 Bluetooth 5.4 eSIM resistors IP68 certification Gorilla Glass IP68 certification Gorilla Glass others USB C (USB 3.2) NFC Ultra Wide Band GPS/Glonass/Beidou/Galileo/GZSS USB C (USB 3.2) NFC Ultra Wide Band GPS/Glonass/Beidou/Galileo/GZSS price From 639 euros From 909 euros Samsung Galaxy S24 (128GB) *Some prices may have changed since the last review Samsung Galaxy S25 (128GB) *Some prices may have changed since the last review What changes The biggest leap at the hardware level is found in the processors: Samsung Exynos 2400 versus Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite More RAM and a good freedom when choosing storage Mobile phones with a capacity of 128 GB can fall very short in a matter of a short time, especially at a time when apps and games increasingly take up more storage. With the change of generation, Samsung has maintained the options to buy the versions of 128GB, 256GB and 512GB. Although we do see a change, in this case, in the RAM memory. In the same way that we have been seeing this year in other brands, the Samsung Galaxy S25 comes with a good extra in terms of RAM memory. The Samsung Galaxy S24 has 8 GB, while the new generation has opted to offer 12 GBsomething logical taking into account the rest of the terminal’s specifications, as well as the arrival of various functions such as Galaxy AI. A notable change in processors The biggest change between the two generations is seen in the processor. The Samsung Galaxy S24 features the Samsung Exynos 2400, a processor that, far from being the most powerful, offers good performance in the terminal; On the other hand, the Samsung Galaxy S25 arrives with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite, the most powerful processor that we can find in Android phones. This change makes sense considering everything that will arrive with the Samsung Galaxy S25. There are many brands that have made it clear on paper that Artificial Intelligence is an important point when launching their phones, but this requires a set of hardware to be able to offer good performance. In this case, the Qualcomm SoC promises a 40% performance increase on NPU, 37% on CPU and 30% on GPU with respect to the Exynos 2400. A newer version of the operating system, but… A year has passed between the two generations, so the Samsung Galaxy S25 arrives as standard with a more current version of the operating system; Android 15 facing Android 14which is what the Samsung Galaxy S24 is based on. Although, obviously, Both phones have (and will have) the latest version of the software. But this should not be a reason to change or choose one model or another. Let us remember that both phones are based on the idea of ​​offering up to seven years of updatessix for the Galaxy S24 considering that it was launched a year ago. They still have many years to update, so in this sense, beyond the presence of Galaxy AI and what each specific terminal can offer, we are talking about two devices that comply perfectly. What doesn’t change A continuous screen Being continuous does not necessarily have to be something negative; When something works, why change it? Within the price range in which both terminals are found, the screens, which are practically identical, comply perfectly. Both phones integrate a panel 6.2 inch AMOLED which offers both Full HD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 1 to 120 Hz. Without seeing how the Samsung Galaxy S25 screen behaves, we can move on to our analysis of the Samsung Galaxy S24. He already mentioned it Ivan Linares“the screen is outstanding“. Samsung did its homework very well during the previous generation. The battery stays together with its charging, wireless charging and reversible charging At a time when brands have begun to launch their phones with batteries of up to 7,000 mAh, it is somewhat surprising that Samsung has been consistent with the 4,000 mAh battery that we can see in the Samsung Galaxy S25, and that we could also see in the Samsung Galaxy S24. But beyond the numbers, the key is in the efficiency of the processor. In the previous generation, autonomy was very good, so we hope it will be maintained (or improved) with the Galaxy S25. What is missing is an extra in other aspects related to the battery. The 25W fast charging It may be somewhat fair if we take into account that it is a figure that we no longer usually see in other brands. Fortunately, with the arrival of a new generation, both wireless charging and reversible charging have … Read more

the radical plan that Barcelona is considering for foreigners

New year, old worries. In one of his first polls 2025, the CIS has confirmed (to no one’s surprise) that one of the issues that most worries Spaniards at this start of the year, if not the most, is housing. Their prices and accessibility keep more people awake at night than the progress of the economy or the political debate. With that backdrop, in Barcelona, ​​one of the cities in the country where the more they are getting more expensive rentals, have decided to make a move to protect their market from speculation. and has an idea: prohibiting foreigners from purchasing homes in Barcelona if it is not to reside in them. What has happened? That Barcelona City Council has placed duties on itself in terms of housing. Its Commission on Ecology, Urban Planning, Mobility and Housing has approved an ERC proposal that raises explore the legal form to prohibit the purchase of homes by investment funds and foreign people who are not going to reside in them. The measure has moved forward with the support of the Republicans, PSC and Barcelona en Comú and the rejection of PP, Vox and Junts. Click on the image to go to the tweet. What exactly have they approved? The proposal of ERC advocated that the City Council, together with the rest of the administrations with powers in the matter, “promote the necessary legislative tools to prohibit the purchase of housing by all investment funds and non-resident persons (natural or legal) in the country, if it is not for one’s own residential use or that of a direct family member”. The Newspaper clarify that the PSC proposed a compromise to the ERC proposal (accepted by this group) so that, instead of requiring the Consistory to “promote legislative measures”, it would first commit to studying them. In any case, the commission closed with a clear message from the municipal body: it is open to prohibiting the purchase of homes by foreign companies and people who are not going to reside in them. Objective: not to be Monopoly. Republican councilor Eva Baró insisted on the importance of the measure to prevent Barcelona from “being sold in pieces as if it were the board of a Monopoly game.” “The original sin is mainly one: having understood housing as a market good, at the service of capital, instead of understanding housing as a human right, a necessity, that the public powers had to protect,” claimed. But… Doesn’t the Government want to do that? If anything has become clear at the start of 2025, it is that housing has become a priority issue on the political agenda. In less than a month they have presented their recipe book to facilitate access to both the PP like the Government, which recently announced a plan 12 measuresamong them one that consists of limiting through taxes the purchase of homes by foreigners from outside the EU who do not reside in Spain. As? With a tax burden of up to 100% of the value of the property. ERC advocate for going further in Barcelona. Its proposal is not limited only to buyers from outside the EU, it also wants to extend to EU foreigners. “It is not worth stopping halfway. This initiative would not only affect non-resident non-EU citizens like the one announced by Sánchez, but also investment funds and ultimately everyone, including community members, who do not buy a home to live in” , Baró emphasizes. Looking beyond Spain. Republican Left argues that, if it ends up coming to fruition, his proposal for Barcelona would not be so strange. Not at least if you put it in the European context. The training assures that in Amsterdam or Utrecht, both in the Netherlands, measures have been applied “that go along those lines to limit speculation” in the market. And at least in the specific case of Utrecht the idea seems to have had effects, according to the broken down data by Baró: “78% of the homes sold in the last two years were acquired by residents, while investors only managed to acquire 11% of the homes.” In other countries On the old continent, restrictions also apply to the sale of homes to foreigners. It matters how… and when. The agreement of the Housing Commission of Barcelona City Council is important for its content, but also for its context. And this one is not marked only by CIS data or the package of measures announced last week by Pedro Sánchez. A few days ago it was revealed that the “Golden visa” they have broken records in Catalonia, with the granting of 314 of these visas, especially to Chinese, Iranian, American and British investors, according to the data shelled by The Vanguard. 98% of these permits (308) correspond to Barcelona. What do the “Golden visa” show us? This enormous flow of “Golden visa” is no coincidence. In April the Government will end these residence visasa figure approved in the time of Mariano Rajoy and which is designed for non-EU residents who want to invest in financial assets in Spain or acquire a property for which they allocate at least 500,000 euros. According to the BBC, between 2013 and 2023, more than 5,000 of these golden visas, especially to Chinese (2,712) and Russian (1,159) investors.

Spain does not appear in the leaked list of the Galaxy S25 slim

Last week the first rendered images of the thinnest flagship mobile from Samsung, the Galaxy S25 Slim. A smartphone that is part of the Galaxy S25 family that will be announced by the Korean company in two days. Now the entire list of countries in which Samsung wants to distribute its new flagship has been leaked. Right in the promotional image of Galaxy Unpacked a fourth device appeared from the family to everyone’s surprise, although for months it had been leaked that Samsung was working on the launch of a slim mobile phone that could compete against Apple’s own, the iPhone 17 Air. Interest in this type of device is increasing because they are capable of offering part of the performance of the best models, but with a very special detail the design: a thinner thickness than what you are used to. This bet seems definitive on the part of Samsung as well as Apple; folding mobile phones too They are using this very special point to attract users already tired of typical smartphones. What Samsung has done with the Galaxy S25 is move its launch window to the month of May to start selling it in a large number of countries. Just 39 as has been known a few hours ago since Phone Arenawhich has also shared all those countries in which Spain does not appear anywhere. The outlet’s exclusive report cites a source with a long history of leaks, and claims that the Samsung’s thinnest flagship phone It will be available in 39 countries. Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim SmartPrix The Free Android There is an important detail, and although Spain does not appear on the list, the source claims that the list it would not be completely completebut it does suggest that it is approaching finality with all the countries that would receive the Galaxy S25 Slim. This is the complete list of countries in which the new Korean flagship mobile can be purchased: Afghanistan Iraq Nigeria Singapore United Kingdom Australia Ireland Pakistan Slovenia Uzbekistan Austria Israel Philippines South Africa Vietnam Brazil Kazakhstan Poland Sri Lanka Caucasus Kenya Portugal Swiss Croatia Libya Russia Thailand Egypt Malaysia Saudi Arabia Tunisia France Mexico Senegal Türkiye India Morocco Serbia/Montenegro UAE Android Headlines The Free Android Apart from Spain Nor does the United States appear as one of the clearest absences, and according to what Evan Blass, another renowned leaker, claims, something similar to the case of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Editionwhich was available, although not by operators. The Galaxy S25 Slim, according to several leakswill stand out for its chip Snapdragon 8 Elitea 6.6-inch FullHD AMOLED display with a refresh rate of 120 Hz and a 200 Mpx main camera accompanied by a 3x telephoto lens and an ultra wide angle to make a great mobile, although we will have to wait for its autonomy as it is so thin, since it will not have the same battery that other models such as the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra itself usually enjoy.

Justine Musk revealed one of the best productivity secrets that Elon Musk shares with Warren Buffet: saying no

Justine Musk is the first wife and mother of six of 11 children children of Elon Musk. He shared a life with Musk even before he became a millionaire after the sale of Zip2. This perspective of Elon Musk, before and after being a millionaire, has allowed the now writer and lecturer to discover one of the secrets of the success of the richest person in the world: say no. During a TEDx talk in 2014Justine Musk highlighted Elon Musk’s ambition and ability to focus, but also a talent that not everyone possesses, such as saying no. Saying no is saying yes As Justine Musk explained, a good part of her ex-husband’s success lay in saying no to many things that they were going to consume your timeto say yes to others that were going to lead him to success. “He said no to people who wanted his time, attention and energy. He said no in a way that protected his resources so he could channel them toward his own goals. And I understood that behind every no there is a deeper ‘yes’ to what what you want,” Justine said in her talk. “Your deep yes is your right to dream,” the writer concluded. The author of six books pointed out that this ability to saying no is a talent which is acquired at a young age and their children also began to develop it. As Justine Musk said in her TED talk, her children were already exercising their power by refusing to do certain things, thus reaffirming their individuality and the talent of wanting to be masters of their own schedule. However, Justine herself recognized that she herself had lost that ability to say no to others between the ages of eight and thirteen. The writer highlighted that this ability to know how to say no to other people not only denotes power to confront negative reactions of whoever requests to occupy your time, also reveals precision in the management of one’s own time and intention. Warren Buffett has his calendar full of noes Elon Musk is not the only one who values ​​his time above anything else and therefore preserves it from any interference. Warren Buffett is also very careful with the use of his time and has the ability to keep his calendar with large spaces available. This was revealed by his good friend Bill Gates during a intervention on the Charlie Ross show in which both millionaires talked about the topic. Bill Gates pointed out how careful Warren Buffett is with his time. “The fact that he’s so careful with time, he has days where there’s nothing on (his schedule)…sitting and thinking can be a priority much older. “It is not an indicator of your seriousness that you have occupied every minute of your schedule.” Greg McKeown, in his book ‘Essentialism‘, highlights a curious paradox about productivity, stating that true productivity is not about doing more, but about doing less. Saying no to other people prevents you from loading your to-do list with tasks unrelated to your goals, so they should be eliminated at all costs. At first, saying no may take an internal effort, but in the long run, that turns into more time to dedicate to what really interests you.

Gemini is now the ubiquitous AI assistant

In the presentation of the three new Samsung phones The technology giant was the common denominator of many of the Galaxy Unpacked moments. Gemini is going to maintain a good part of the artificial intelligence functions of Korean mobile phones, just as it is going to do in the Pixel 9 with a wide variety of new features that Google just promoted. These new experiences based on generative artificial intelligence aim to convert The Pixel 9 in more “AI” mobiles and thus continue ‘fighting’ against OpenAI in a fight between the two that seems to have no end. The prominence of Gemini in the new Galaxy S25 is another example of the crucial moment that Google is going through before the OpenAI steamroller with its ChatGPT. In an advertisement on store.google.com you can read “The new functions of Gemini Live and Rodea to search on Pixel 9 mobiles”, and they will encourage users of Google smartphones play in the same league that the next owners of the new Galaxy S25; Just the opposite of last year with the premiere of Rodea para Busca, which was exclusively for the Galaxy S24 for a few weeks. The first new feature is the power ability send content to Gemini to ask any questions, or have a chat to give more context to a video on YouTube or any type of documents as well as images. Best of all, it can be done with the natural conversation offered by Google’s AI, so the interaction can be more enriching than doing it through text: Images– Add an image to the conversation and Gemini Live will offer detailed information and suggestions and can help resolve problems in real time. Files– You can share documents and have a discussion about them to extract important information or key points. Videos: A conversation with Gemini about a YouTube video with all kinds of details. Gemini Live when querying you about a video on YouTube Google The Free Android The Gemini interface has been redesigned conveniently to add a button to include that type of content as a photo from the gallery or take a new one; similar to what Google Lens can offer. There are more important functions in this sense, such as the possibility of being able to ask about what is seen on the screen when taking a screenshot, taking another one on a PDF from the Google Files app and the same, but with the YouTube app. Gemini is going to be that omnipresent assistant to demand its appearance at all times in a very simple way. And once the content is uploaded, a button will appear where you can read it. “Talk to Live about this” on the same interface, so that when you press it, the AI ​​assistant appears with the attached content appearing in the center of the screen and the two pause and cancel buttons just below in the familiar Gemini Live interface. This great novelty is deployed today at Pixel 9 series, as in the Galaxy S24 and S25although in EL ESPAÑOL – El Androide Libre the Gemini update has not appeared in the Google Play Store. For the rest of the Pixel it will arrive with a ‘soon’. Gemini already does several things at the same time Next up will be the new ability Project Astra screen sharing and video streaming capabilities on Gemini. The technology giant had its moment to share what the interface is like today and will be available in the following months through the Gemini app on the Pixel and S25. Another novelty for the Pixel is the deployment that is being carried out today with Deep Research to Gemini Advanced subscribers in the mobile version after introducing it last month in the web client. All compatible Pixel phones will receive it in the following days. Sending a message in Google Messages with Gemini Google The Free Android A very productive day for Google from your website and from now on you can ask Gemini to use multiple extensions at once from a single prompt and the new capabilities of Rodea to search, which are both summarized in this way: You can now ask Gemini to do several things at the same time in different apps: from finding entertainment venues on Google Maps and sending them to a friend via Google Messages. Circle to search with AI summaries either AI Overviews: They will give any useful information and links about places, trending images, unique objects and more. Act instantly: Circle to Search now identifies phone numbers, email addresses, and URLs. The prompts Multi-extension are available now on Android, iOS and on the webwhile Surround Anything to Find Out More with AI Summaries remains for the moment where it is available globally and only in English.

This way you will now share all the music you want from the chat app

It’s almost impossible to keep up with the news. with the continuous updates that it is deploying WhatsApp in Spainand almost every week a new one appears that would be arriving in the next update to the final version of the most installed chat app in these parts. Now he is going for a great novelty: sharing his favorite music from the states. WhatsApp status updates like Instagram Stories are a great way to share anything and so you can reach all your contacts that are present in both applications. It is not even necessary to send a direct message for friends or family to follow the content that is published from this space, which also receives changes from time to time. The new WhatsApp proposal is aimed at that audience that likes share your favorite songs; just as it does on Instagram by having the exquisite musical catalog of Universal Music Group. The idea is very similar and what it will allow is to share the latest song by Kendrick Lamar or Dua Lipa from the status update. This novelty already appeared as part of a development in the beta of WhatsApp on Android with version 2.25.2.5 and now it has re-emerged, but on iOS with version 25.1.10.73 of the app through TestFlight. Which means that Meta would be preparing everything for the arrival to the final version of a very important novelty. As can be seen in the screenshot provided by WaBetaInfothis function allows you to search for specific songs or artists from the same editor, which will make it easier share this type of content in status updates. This feature is only available with a stable internet connection for obvious reasons to search through the entire catalog available for the thousands of artists and groups available from Universal Music Group. The new option to share musical content on WhatsApp WaBetaInfo The Free Android The music sharing icon It appears located just like the second in the row located at the top, always used to edit the content or even put a text among the different options offered by WhatsApp. And just when a song is added to the image to be shared, the content is transformed into a video that lasts 15 seconds. On the other hand, if it were a video without sound, the duration of the shared content would be the length of the video itself. Manuel Ramirez The Free Android This WhatsApp music experience is practically identical to Instagram and it is because Meta has expanded its usage rights agreement with Universal Music Group just last year in August according to TechCrunchso that millions in Spain can enjoy their musical content from the most installed chat app.

The Google Pixel 8a that Amazon sells for less than 400 euros in Spain and that you cannot miss

Google is preparing the year and is already starting at launch very tempting offers for some of their best mobile phones as is now the case with the Pixel 8a launched last year in Spain and which has proven to be one of the best in its price range. Range that is now considerably reduced with this incredible offer on Amazon Spain. The technological giant of online searches demonstrates year after year that its Pixels are becoming the users’ favorite mobile phones who are looking for a more special experience than those provided by Samsung and other Android manufacturers. Above all because it has accustomed its users to receive news with regular updates and thus the purchase of the Pixel 8a has more value, especially because it is a mobile phone that has one of the best experiences in photography thanks to Google’s achievements in computing; capable of covering hardware shortcomings by mounting lower capacity sensors to achieve incredible results in captures. A photograph that stands out in hardware for a dual system composed of a 64 Mpx main (dual pixel PDAF, OIS) and a 13 Mpx ultra wide angle. On the front it has a 13 Mpx more than enough for magnificent selfies and video recording. The screen is 6.1 inch AMOLED with 1,080 x 2,400 resolution with a 120 Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 2,000 nits. It has Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection to protect the panel and resistance to water and dust thanks to IP67 certification. Google Pixel 8a Chema Flores The Free Android With a large screen and very special photography, Google’s Pixel 8a can be purchased on Amazon in Spain for a price of 399 euros and thus enjoy a 27% discount (its usual price is 549 euros) for the 128 GB variant. If the 256 GB storage option is preferred, it is available for 449 euros (regular price 609 euros) with a 26% discount. In his bowels runs the Tensor G3 chip designed by Google itself and that year after year it shows more power and better management of energy efficiency. It is accompanied by 8 GB of RAM and 128/256 GB storage. Chema Flores The Free Android Mentioned about energy efficiency, battery is 4,492 mAh with 18W fast charging and 8W wireless charging; one of the lowest specifications of a mobile phone that reaches the day of autonomy without any type of problem. The Google Pixel 8a moves away from the dimensions of other larger ones: 152.1 x 72.7 x 8.9 mm with a weight of 188 g. But there is more to the Pixel 8a with details that should not be ignored such as Bluetooth 5.3, WiFi 6e stereo speakers and on-screen fingerprint sensor. And if it is characterized by its computational photography, it also does so in software with a great novelty: Circle to searcha of the new experiences of the technological giant last year to make direct queries of everything that is generated on the screen by making a quick gesture.

The renaissance of nuclear energy is underway. And the microreactors are preparing to give it a boost

The physicists and engineers involved in the development of fourth generation nuclear fission reactors They are working to propose new designs that conceptually may be very different from those of previous generations. Of course, the requirements that these new nuclear power plants must meet are clearly defined. The first of them consists of achieving the maximum possible sustainability, so that the fuel is used to the maximum to produce energy, the amount of radioactive waste resulting from the process is minimized and its management is as efficient as possible. The second requirement concerns the economic investment that must be made to start up and maintain the nuclear power plant, which must be as low as possible so that it can be compared to the expenditure required by other sources of energy, thus reducing the risk. financial. And the third and final requirement stipulates that safety and reliability must be high enough to minimize the probability of damage to the reactor core. Besides, if an accident occurred It should not be necessary to take emergency measures beyond the nuclear power plant facilities. Westinghouse and Radiant working on the world’s smallest reactors The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) published a very detailed report in September 2024 entitled “Energy, electricity and nuclear power estimates for the period up to 2050”. In it, it analyzes the short and medium-term future of nuclear energy and delves into its role as a means of generating electricity that can contribute to the achievement of global climate objectives. However, the most interesting thing is that this organization predicts that global nuclear power will increase by 2.5 by 2050. Microreactors use uranium-based isotropic tristructural particles as fuel Compact and modular nuclear reactors play a crucial role in achieving that vision, but microreactors will also likely play a very important role. As their name indicates, they are compact and modular nuclear reactors much smaller than conventional fission machines. As we can predict, they produce less energy than the latter, usually 50 megawatts or lessbut thanks to their size they can be installed in remote places where it is not possible to set up a traditional nuclear power plant. However, nuclear microreactors have more advantages. On the one hand, its installation is relatively simple and much faster than that of conventional reactors. In addition, they do not require large water cooling systems, they operate in an automated manner and their maintenance is simpler than that of a traditional nuclear plant. And, interestingly, the eVinci and Kaleidos microreactors being developed by the American companies Westinghouse and Radiant use uranium-based tristructural isotropic particles (TRISO) as fuel. The particles of this fuel are the size of a poppy seed and contain uranium, carbon and oxygen encapsulated in a carbon-ceramic shell that is capable of withstanding extreme temperatures. On paper this nuclear fuel is the most robust ever developed to date. An interesting note: Radiant uses helium as a coolant, while Westinghouse uses a passive heat duct system. These two companies have the financial support of the US Department of Energy (DOE) and plan to place their microreactors on the market in 2030 as long as, of course, they obtain a license from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

without changes, Samsung assumes extra costs

At the beginning of the year, the possibility of the Korean company applying a significant increase in the price of the Galaxy S25 series. A small scare that in the end will come to nothing, since this game of bringing some prices or others to different regions, at least in Spain and Europe it will not affect the user who wants to purchase one of their mobile phones. These leaks were based on the increased manufacturing costs of the new Galaxy S25 series, so an increase in the series with the best specifications of the Korean company could be partly understood. It seems that Samsung’s proposal is to reduce the profit margin for each unit sold so that the new user of its Galaxy S25 does not assume them. Which means that Samsung is going to go behind its back the increase in the cost of production of its new mobile phones. A crucial moment for the manufacturer, since the new series will arrive with an important renewal in the hardware specifications as will happen in the software with One UI 7 and additions like the Now Bar on the lock screen. It is very clear that Samsung’s intentions are to bring the best possible Galaxy S25 into the hands of new owners without they have to scratch their pockets more than necessary, and it is practically nothing according to the prices that have been leaked both in Korea and in Europe. The possible prices of the three mobile phones that will be presented in two days have been leaked, since the Galaxy S25 Slim moves to the month of May. In Europe the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra can be purchased from 909, 1,159 and 1,459 euros respectively, according to 9to5Google from GizmoChina. Case with stand for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra The Free Android They go on par with the prices of the Galaxy S24 series which was launched in Spain just a year agoalthough with some change in one of the models. The Galaxy S24 was launched at 909 euros, while the Galaxy S24+ started at 1,159 euros and the S24 Ultra at 1,479 euros. It is unknown if the prices are from Germany or another country European, since they tend to fluctuate somewhat, although not much, so it fits perfectly and it can be said that Samsung leaves everything as it was for the next Galaxy S25 that will be presented this Wednesday at Galaxy Unpacked. In just over 48 hours the doubts will be cleared up. Evan Blass The Free Android A series that will not be missing anything and that will arrive again with AI as its flag and the great protagonist to achieve new goals in the user experience; which the Korean company announced a few days ago to anticipate the arrival of its trio of smartphones with One UI 7 as another of the big releases based on Android 15.

The code names of the four phones in the series are leaked

The Pixel 10 have been leaking some details to get closer to next summer in which its launch is expected, since last year Google brought forward the presentation date of the Pixel 9. An internal Google source has shared certain documents that confirm the Pixel 11 codenames which will be released next year. A leak that skips the next Google devices this year, since the first that would be presented is the Pixel 9a to replace the Pixel 8a last year launched in Spainand then the Pixel 10 series for its launch next summer as the station of choice for the technology giant. The internal source has given some documents to Android Authority and thus know the code names that are usually of unique animal species. For example, for the Pixel 11 the denominator theme is going to be the bear, and it is not at all something new for Google use certain names according to a theme; For older versions of Android it always used dessert names like KitKat (Android 4.4), Lollipop (Android 5.0) or Marshmallow (Android 6.0). Each of the mobile phones that make up the Pixel 11 series, and which is surprising for still being four models so that the folding mobile follow another of the protagonistshave their only name as one of the most dangerous subspecies and animals on the planet, the grizzly bear: Pixel 11: “cubs” or “4CS4”.
