Samsung’s next Galaxy Unpacked is a week away, and that’s when we expect the Samsung Galaxy S25 series to get announced. But that hasn’t stopped all the leaks from coming out, and here’s another interesting tidbit about the refined camera design, as well as a quick peek at what One UI 7 holds.

Evan Blass, a leaker with a reputable track record, showed off some new images of the Galaxy S25 and S25 Plus in a newsletter. These images give us the closest and sharpest look of the upcoming phones so far. The images showcase a dark-blue color, which we were expecting, but it also reveals that the color of the body also extends to the camera rings themselves. We haven’t seen this before in any previous leaks, and it’s a really nice touch.

There is also an image of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, showing off more-rounded corners, the colored camera rings, and the S Pen. We can also see what appears to be incredibly thin bezels on the display, which have been a constant in the rumors.

Though the images are more focused on the hardware aspect of the Galaxy S25 series, the more interesting part could be a new feature in One UI 7.

We expect the Galaxy S25 line to launch with Android 15 and One UI 7, but One UI 7 has already been in the beta stages for Galaxy S24 owners. This is a major update for Samsung’s custom Android fork, and one of those new features is the “Now Bar,” which Samsung showed off in its promotional images. But today’s pictures reveal something called the “Now Brief,” which Samsung teased last month. The Now Brief appears to be an AI summary, likely of your notifications and other important alerts.

We won’t have to wait much longer for Samsung to take the curtain off the Galaxy S25 and One UI 7. Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked will be held on January 22.

Samsung Galaxy S26: what we want to see

It’s been less than five months since Samsung revealed the Galaxy S25 series, which includes the regular model, Galaxy S25 Plus, and flagship Galaxy S25 Ultra. While much of the attention now focuses on the incoming Galaxy S25 Edge, we’re beginning to understand better what to expect from Samsung’s Galaxy S26 lineup. At a minimum, we’re starting to outline what we’d like to see in the 2026 phones, which should launch in January.

Will the lineup once again feature three models, or will a Galaxy S26 Edge be revealed at the same time? Will we finally see massive design changes to Samsung’s most popular phone series, or should we expect more of the same?

After the last possible announcement date for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge passed us by without the phone making an appearance, we’ve got a new date to look forward to. Samsung will apparently hold an Unpacked launch event on May 13, and the phone will be available to pre-order from May 24. 

However, the initial launch will take place in South Korea and China, according to The Financial News, a South Korean news source, quoting an anonymous industry source. The good news is, the source then revealed the Galaxy S25 Edge will be released in the U.S. and other global markets from May 20.

Updates tracker, Tarun Vats, shared on X that the stable One UI 7 update is now appearing for Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy S24 users in multiple regions across Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and the US.
