In fact, some companies are pushing the thickness of phones over to the anorexic side, just for marketing’s sake, and the all-new Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is a prime example. The upcoming Apple iPhone 17 Air has the same vibes Apple will soon become a good example,

A slimmer phone means scaling back on some components, including the battery. The Galaxy S25 Edge has a 3,900 mAh battery, compared to 4,000 mAh on the baseline S25 and 4,900 mAh on the S25 Plus. Samsung says the S25 Edge's battery should last you all day, and in my experience so far, this has been true -- but don't expect any more than that.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge is here. It's thin, expensive, and has a bewildering spec sheet. The more I look at it, the more I don't get it.
