The start of the new year typically brings several exciting announcements, and this time Samsung is ready to introduce the Galaxy S25 Series and other products at Galaxy Unpacked 2025, scheduled for January 22, 2025. During the event, the company will unveil the Galaxy S25 series that include Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, and Galaxy S25 Ultra. However, ahead of its launch, we have got some latest reports regarding the Galaxy S25 Ultra which might surprise you, so let’s check out the details.
Galaxy S25 series: Storage and RAM options
Usually, Samsung gives different variants of configuration for the Galaxy S-series, letting consumers pick up whatever is most suitable for their storage and RAM. In regard to the Galaxy S25 lineup, some early rumors were stating that the Ultra variant will pack a whopping 16 GB of RAM with higher storage tiers such as 512 GB and 1 TB. However, the latest leak has now questioned this belief.
The fresh leak from Abishek Yadav has disclosed details about the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s RAM and storage configuration. According to the source, all three Galaxy S25 models, S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra, will carry 256 GB, 512 GB, and 1 TB storage options. Nonetheless, they are tipped to end up at 12 GB of RAM. Notably, the standard Galaxy S25 may have a further 128 GB storage tier, paired with 12 GB of RAM.

Is 16 GB RAM off the table?
The latest information has raised a question on whether Samsung plans to sell 16 GB RAM variants at all. Yadav’s information appears to be based on hardware meant for the Indian market, so it is still open to the possibility that other regions, such as the US, might still see a 16 GB RAM option for the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Still, there is no evidence for this scenario yet.
If the leaks are proven correct, fans will likely be disappointed who were hoping for more RAM upgrades, especially considering the multitasking demands of modern apps, although 12 GB of RAM will still be more than enough for those who crave cutting-edge features may feel less.
Should you wait for the Galaxy S26?
For Galaxy fans, who are contemplating either upgrading or waiting, the choice purely comes down to personal choice. If a phone with 16 GB of RAM is an important factor, the Galaxy S26 may be worth waiting for, provided Samsung addresses that in ensuing iterations. The Galaxy S25 series, however, is also set to retain premium performance, an elegant design, and cutting-edged features that could justify an upgrade for many.
As the count continues into January 22, more updates will follow. Stay tuned and share your views: Will the Galaxy S25 series meet expectations, or do you have your sights on the next generation already?
