The South Korean giant has been working on the Galaxy S25 for some time, a new generation of high-end smartphones that will be presented at first quarter of 2025, likely at the end of January, and which is shaping up to be a smaller evolution of the Galaxy S24. Everything we know about this new series points in that direction, but a new rumor has us a little confused.

So far, listings and references to the Galaxy S25 and S25 Ultra have been found, but there is no sign of a “Plus” model. This was what gave rise to an interesting rumor that states that Samsung I could do without the Galaxy S25 Plus in its next generation of smartphones. It makes sense because it’s very strange that not even the slightest data has been logged about that terminal since yesterday.

However, and as you can see in the attached images, yes, the registered references of the other two models have already been found that Samsung will launch, giving this information some credibility.

Why could Samsung pass on the Galaxy S25 Plus?

That is the most important question we have to ask ourselves after reading this rumor, and the answer is very simple simplify a range of high-end smartphones and leave behind a catalog that is more user-friendly, which in turn could compete more effectively with what Apple has on the market.

On the other hand, it seems that the “Plus” model. Consumers didn’t like it too much either., who ended up mostly opting for the base model or the “Ultra” version. This desire to simplify the catalog, together with the low sales of the “Plus” model, would be the determining factors of this decision, which may seem a little drastic a priori, but in the end makes a lot of sense.

If Samsung decides to remove the Galaxy S25 Plus, it will be an elimination a model that is redundant in many ways, and that is stepped on with the standard model. The price difference between the two also makes the “Plus” version much less attractive and has led many to go straight for the “Ultra” model.

Personally, I think it’s a good idea, but it’s important to be clear it is not confirmed and that it is a rumor based, as I said, on the absence of records and references to the Galaxy S25 Plus. As we get closer to the launch date of this new generation, we will see more information that will allow us to clarify this issue.
