Samsung was previously rumored to be testing four design prototypes of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, but it was likely that the company would stick with something different for next year. As shared by a tipster, a render of the Korean giant’s top-end model shows that we will witness a flagship launch bearing slightly rounded corners, along with thinner bezels than before.

A boxier design may look crisp and pristine to some, but it can also cause an encumbrance during use, thanks to the sharp corners. Laptop makers often use this approach to cut down on manufacturing costs since it takes longer for machines to churn out a machine with rounded corners as opposed to sharper ones. However, Ice Universe has shared a new render of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, stating that the flagship will do away with those sharper corners and transition to rounded ones.
While it might be expensive for Samsung to mass produce this chassis, there are various benefits to this design.

Thankfully, the device will stick with a titanium chassis, but it will retain the Grade 2 variant thanks to the improved bonding process. The slimmer bezels will
