The phone features several other features that make your day-to-day tasks a little easier. While the contribution of most of these is relatively minor, the latest AI features bring everything up a notch.
The phone will be available for purchase from February 7, 2025 with pre-orders starting from today. In this article, we'll look into the specs, features, and price of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus.

It comes in two storage configurations of 256GB and 512GB. However, it features 12GB RAM which remains the same for both variants.
The camera specs remain largely similar to last years, but we see a significant increase in video quality and the additional photography features, which we will discuss in the seciton below. The 50MP main camera helps to shoot 8K video at 30fps, which is super impressive.

What are the new features on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus?
The new Samsung Galaxy S25 Plus features several innovative features that make it a far better phone compared to its predecessor. For starters, it features the all new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, which makes use of the Oryon CPU and Adreno GPU to provide a 40% increase in ray tracing performance. This allows for the most realistic performance and graphics quality seen on a mobile platform.
Several improvements were seen in the camera quality as well. Virtual aperture uses software to add dimension and depth to images and videos. This is similar to portrait mode on most phones but looks far more natural and realistic. Nightography is another feature that allows you to shoot clear videos with less noise even in low-light conditions.
It also comes with ProScaler, which is an AI image upscaler that offers up to 40% increase in quality. The phone also features the biggest battery life yet, allowing for up to 31 hours of video playback.
