Subj : The best Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra model could be exclusive to Asi To : All From : TechnologyDaily Date : Mon Jan 20 2025 11:00:07 The best Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra model could be exclusive to Asia Date: Mon, 20 Jan 2025 10:53:08 +0000 Description: The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra could be stuck with 12GB of RAM in much of the world, and there's growing evidence that its S Pen will lack Bluetooth. FULL STORY ======================================================================A source claims the rumored 16GB Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will only be available in Asia We've also seen new imagery of the Galaxy S25 Ultra and its S Pen These pictures hint that the S Pen might not support Bluetooth Were now just a couple of days away from the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, so unsurprisingly theres an influx of last-minute rumors and leaks, with the latest being a suggestion that if youre reading this you probably wont be able to buy the best version of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra . According to leaker @chunvn8888 , the long-rumored 16GB model of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will only be sold in China, South Korea, India, and Vietnam, leaving the rest of the world with only a 12GB version. The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra already has 12GB of RAM, so that would mean no upgrades in this department for most of the world. The rumored move to 16GB was one of the biggest upgrades we were expecting for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, so this would be disappointing. As ever, wed take this with a pinch of salt, but the source has a reasonable track record. So it's confirmed that the 16GB S25U is exclusive to the Asian market only. China, South Korea, India, Vietnam will have far from my knowledge. Looks like Asians like us are eating good one more time January 20, 2025 A downgraded S Pen Thats not the only disappointing Galaxy S25 Ultra news either, as weve also seen seemingly official marketing images showing the S25 Ultra and its S Pen, and they hint at a lack of Bluetooth for the stylus. Shared by @DalgleishGX and reposted by Tarun Vats on X, these images highlight things youll be able to do with the S Pen, including sketching and note taking. However, what theres no mention of is things like gesture controls, or being able to use the pen as a camera remote or to take screenshots. These are things the Galaxy S24 Ultras S Pen can do, but they require Bluetooth, and we recently heard that the S25 Ultras S Pen might lack Bluetooth .

Text on one of these images also mentions that the S Pen has 4,096 pressure levels, which is the same as the previous model, though the tip is listed as 1.5mm, making it larger than the 0.7mm Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra one. So that might lead to improvements in some ways. As for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra itself, these images show exactly the same design that weve seen many times at this point, including slightly curvier corners than the S24 Ultra, tiny bezels, and a metal frame. Hopefully the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra will still impress, whether or not this latest information is accurate, but well find out soon, with Samsung set to unveil this phone on January 22.
