Despite the innumerable leaks and rumors surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, the phone remains a relative mystery in official terms. We know that his name, we know that he has two cameras, and we know that it is unlikely thin, but in the months elapsed since his announcement in Galaxy unpacked in January, Samsung has refrained from sharing, well, anything about his alleged air competitor of the iPhone 17.
For the most part, that did not change in MWC 2025, although in an exclusive interview with Techradar during the Barcelona -based showcase, the Marketing director of the United Kingdom of Samsung, Annika Bizon, revealed that the edge of the edge of the edge (rumored that measures only 5.8 mm thick) will not have at the expense of durability.
“I can’t say too much, but what I will say is that [the Edge] It is a beautiful form of form. And there are two points that I want to do, ”explained Bizon. “One is absolutely impressive. And if you think about the technology that is entering that size of the space, it is quite impressive.
“The second thing I will say refers to durability. With something thin, durability [has to come as part of the package]. Those are the two characteristics [of the Edge] They are exciting [for us]. Well, I know that durability is not exciting, but it is really important. So look at this space, because there are some exciting things to come with respect to this phone. “

Ok, nothing innovative, but it seems that the advantage will bring something new to the table with respect to durability, which coincides with a very specific design rumor that we have already heard.
According to the reports, the Galaxy S25 EDGE could be separated from the rest of the Galaxy S25 line using a ceramic rear panel instead of the Gorilla Glass Vicus 2. The ceramics is harder than the glass, so that a glass panel with a completely ceramic ceramic or ceramic infusion would guarantee that the Galaxy S25 EDGE is more resistant to the drops and hit a telephone of its thickness of its thickness.
This would also explain why Samsung has maintained an ‘Don’s Touch’ look with the edge as Galaxy unpacked as MWC 2025, where the phone was on display behind a barrier. Perhaps, if fans were allowed to practice with the device, they could feel the difference in the rear panel material, which is presumably something that Samsung wants to keep a secret for a dedicated revelation event.
Other rumored durability specifications for the edge include a classification of water resistance and IP68 dust and aluminum sides, which would coincide with the Galaxy S25 and the Galaxy S25 Plus. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, meanwhile, uses Gorilla Glass Armor 2 and a titanium body.
Why border? Why now?
For because Samsung is taking the Galaxy S25 Edge to the market this year, and in making it shaking its strategy to release proven and proven products, Bizon attributes it to an internal commitment to innovation and consumer’s interest in something new.
“What happens with thin phones,” he explains, “it is people to know that they are still obtaining a very good technology. Innovation is in our DNA. It is the right time, and when we believe that a product is ready to bring to the market, along with the fact that people want changes in the form factor.
“We have seen it with folding. We are a brand for everyone. And being an open brand means that you should have technology for everyone. Some people do not want to change a flat phone; Some people love flip; Some people love the fold. There is something for everyone, and I think that’s where Samsung is really leading the way. “
Bizon concluded: “The advantage is exciting because it is a new factor that is quite sexy. It is quite different. And that is fun. It is something fun to market too. It’s absolutely impressive, I’m very excited about that. “
And as for the triumph of Samsung Galaxy, Samsung’s uniform: “I really can’t tell you anything,” he confesses: “No unless you want someone to come and hold on his neck.” Suffice it to say that we stopped the interview there.
