The Galaxy S25 Slim could get an Ultra camera upgrade

We first heard about the Galaxy S25 Slim last week, and it’s (unsurprisingly) expected to be a thinner Galaxy S25 model. A thinner design usually entails some sacrifices, but a leaker has now hinted at a camera upgrade instead.

Ice Universe claimed on X that the Galaxy S25 Slim will have an “Ultra” camera. The leaker didn’t elaborate on this claim, though. Check out the tweet below.

It’s not immediately clear what an “Ultra” camera means, although the most obvious guess is that the Slim model will gain a 200MP main camera like the S23 Ultra and S24 Ultra. The recently released Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition also offers a 200MP main shooter rather than the Z Fold 6’s 50MP primary camera. So there’s certainly a precedent for such a high-resolution camera to be used outside the Ultra line.

On the other hand, fellow leaker Jukanlosreve suggested that there weren’t any confirmed Galaxy S25 Slim specifications just yet. So it’s entirely possible that we won’t see a 200MP main camera after all. But we hope Samsung is able to get a handle on shutter lag if the new phone indeed has the S24 Ultra‘s main camera as this has long been an issue with the brand’s 200MP-toting phones.

It’s believed the Galaxy S25 Slim will launch in Q2 2025, several months after the mainline S25 phones. So we likely have a while to wait to see this thinner flagship.
