It is possible that Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra may finally design the change that its fans have been craving for. Although the design made the previous Ultra models look more premium with sharp edges on the corners, it also caused discomfort during usage, especially when users held the device for long periods. The Galaxy S25 Ultra seems to solve this problem because current leaks show that the corners are rounded.
A Departure from the Edgy Design
The insider IceUniverse shared a build that sells us what seems to be a first glance at the S25 Ultra new design. From the mockup images one can conclude that the characteristic boxy design, which has always been the hallmark of the Ultra series, may make way for the more ergonomic and rounded one. While not as curved as its Pixel counterparts, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra appears to present a near perfect blend between today’s sleek look and feel and the need to comfortably hold and use the device.
This change will potentially make the phone easier to grip while simultaneously preserving the polished and premium look associated with Samsung’s flagship series. The blunting of these edges is however the slightest change that can nonetheless totally revolutionize the users’ interaction with the device they hold.
S Pen and Other Design Highlights
One interesting detail in the leaked mockups is the S Pen. The image shows a white-colored S Pen that appears to maintain the same size and shape as its predecessors, with the primary difference being the new milky white finish. This subtle design tweak could indicate that Samsung is introducing additional color options, potentially to match the phone’s updated look.
In some of the renders, IceUniverse put the Galaxy S25 Ultra next to Galaxy S24 Ultra and iPhone 16 Pro Max. A good example is in the form factor of the Galaxy S24 Ultra which has a boxy design as compared to the S25 Ultra’s smooth looking rounded edges. That said, it seems that Samsung managed to retain the flat display as well as ultra-slim bezels, thus maintaining the immersive experience of the device.
More Than Just Rounded Corners?
The leaks suggest that the design overhaul might extend beyond just the corners. IceUniverse is saying that Samsung may now be planning a new back panel. The Galaxy S24 Ultra entirely has no curvature bottom to top or side to side while the S25 Ultra shall come with concave curved backside and flat front side. This asymmetrical design could give a better hold on the phone without ever compromising the aesthetics of the device.
The design philosophy for the S25 Ultra may have extended from the exterior look, as well as from the ergonomics perspective and practicality of use. If true this approach would make the phone more ergonomic though proffering the premium experience expected of any flagship phone.
Validity of the Leak and What Comes Next
However, as the leaks look promising, it is necessary to pin down the fact that this is just the first information leak. Samsung has not formally announced these changes but while it is expecting to launch a new mobile phone, it can alter the design a little bit. IceUniverse has proven himself to be reliable regarding leaks, so we might know that these details are true.
In the meantime the fans will just have to wait for the official announcements and information. If the S25 Ultra incorporates these design changes, it will certainly signify a paradigm shift in how Samsung handles its Ultra line, ensuring that comfort and sleekness are both executed and combined without the annoying discomfort that consumers of the latest models have recently suffered.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will create a new pattern of the Ultra series by introducing unique changes in its design and shape which will break the typical or conventional boxy design of the present S series and will shift towards round edges for a better grip. The images that appeared in the leak reveal sleek design, good balance between the contemporary and the luxurious look. The firm envisions the overall experience that needs to be created for the users, as indicated by changes such as the color change of the S Pen and possibly the rear panel design. Although the outbreaks recorded in this website are seeming to go well, it is awaiting official validation.
To my mind, this is a correct move, which answers users’ requests and does not diminish the prestige of the flagship series. Some clearly visible characteristics could be comfortable to grip and operate, such as rounded sides and, perhaps, concave-back.
