January 22 has been our best guess for the Samsung Galaxy S25 release date for a while now, with multiple rumors pointing to that date, and now a third has stepped in with the same date – and even the exact start time of the launch event.

No Slim in sight
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim is noticeably absent, but while a previous rumor had said it could arrive alongside the rest of the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, we’d recently heard that the Galaxy S25 Slim could arrive in April or later.
Regardless, we’d take this release date information with a grain of salt, but since it comes from a reputable source and ties in with previous tips, we’re now fairly confident in the January 22 date.
These phones should hopefully be worth this short remaining wait too, with rumors pointing to them using a powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, having MagSafe-like wireless charging and several other upgrades – including more RAM and a new ultra-wide camera in the housing of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.
