The Best Android Phones of 2025: Tested by Our Experts

The Galaxy S25's biggest flex that I noticed while testing is it shares many of the same attributes as its pricier counterparts, the S25 Plus and S25 Ultra – but it does so for several hundred dollars less. You'll find features like the AI Select tool, Audio Eraser and deeper Gemini integration across all of Samsung's S25 devices, as well as a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB RAM – making the smaller phone of the bunch still seem pretty mighty. And while the Galaxy S25 might look

Amazon Is Clearing Out Galaxy S25 Ultra Stock, Now Way Cheaper Than on the Official Store

Right now, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is Amazon’s top-selling phone. It came out in January 2025 and is now seen as the best Android phone – even better than the iPhone 16 Pro according to many. Amazon is selling it for $1,099 which is $200 less than its original price of $1,299, and a record low price. It’s also a lot cheaper here than at the official Samsung store, but it could sell out fast. See at Amazon Best Phone in 2025 The Galaxy S25 Ultra is regarded by experts as the best phone available

Whether you're looking for cutting-edge camera features, all-day battery life, or a foldable screen that doubles as a tablet, there's a Samsung pho

Samsung scores a win in Galaxy S22 throttling saga, but it still deceived customers

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A Korean court has ruled that Samsung wasn’t liable for damages after it throttled Galaxy S22 phones. However, the court acknowledged that Samsung engaged in “deceptive labeling and advertising that was likely to mislead consumers.” Samsung throttled S22 phones out of the box back in 2022 and didn’t let users disable this functionality at first. Samsung made headlines for all the wrong reasons in early 2022 when it turned out that the company was throttl

Wow! Samsung Galaxy S25 devices still come with a free gift card!

Lanh Nguyen / Android Authority These offers are available from Amazon. Best Buy also offers free gift cards when you purchase a Samsung Galaxy S25 series smartphone. The only difference is that getting the base Galaxy S25 will get you a less valuable $50 gift card, which is half what you would get from Amazon. Best Buy still gives you a $100 gift card for the Galaxy S25 Plus and a $200 one for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, though. Which Galaxy S25 version should you get? Are you having trouble decidi

That was quick: One UI 7 beta 5 is out just days after beta 4 release

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has released One UI 7 beta 5 for the Galaxy S24 series. The update fixes a VVM crash issue and is smaller in size than the previous beta 4 update. It’s rolling out to US users, and its early arrival contradicts some leaks. Just two days after releasing the One UI 7 beta 4 update, Samsung has surprised Galaxy S24 Ultra users with a new One UI 7 beta 5 update. YouTube creator Jeff Springer posted that they received a new One UI 7 update, with the s

One year later, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is still ripping a hole in people’s pockets — literally

TL;DR Multiple Galaxy S24 Ultra users are reporting ripped pockets due to the phone’s sharp corners. A phone case can help, but it adds bulk to the already large device. Samsung has softened the corners on the Galaxy S25 Ultra, fixing the design flaw on the new phone. The Galaxy S24 Ultra is considered one of the top Android flagships of its time. Even though the Galaxy S25 Ultra has been released, the Galaxy S24 Ultra has enough overkill across all of its specifications for it to remain in p

OnePlus 13R vs. Samsung Galaxy S24 FE: Which Cheaper Flagship Is Best?

The $600 OnePlus 13R and the $650 Samsung Galaxy S24 FE each have a similar mission: Provide a phone that includes all the essential features of more-expensive phones by scaling back on certain hardware and software features. Ideally, this approach should get you all the essential features of the more expensive OnePlus 13 and Samsung Galaxy S24 phones, and in-turn, scale back on features that are less noticeable or important. However, I do think OnePlus and Samsung take very different approache

Ceramics could be Samsung’s secret to the Galaxy S25 Edge’s slim design

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is working on a new, extra thin addition to the Galaxy S25 family: the S25 Edge. A new report claims that Samsung could use ceramic materials for the Galaxy S25 Edge’s rear panel. Samsung already employs ceramic glass Corning Gorilla Armor 2 with the Galaxy S25 Ultra. There are only so many ways to build a smartphone, and especially when we’ve all sort of gotten on board with the same basic shape, a manufacturer’s choice of materials can go a
