Beat the rush and get the beautiful Motorola Edge (2025) mid-ranger at an unbeatable holiday price!

Does Motorola make the best budget 5G phones you can get in the US these days? If you don’t think that yet, you probably will once you see the newly reduced price of the company’s only Edge-branded handset released stateside this year.

The aptly named Motorola Edge (2025) mid-ranger normally costs $549.99, which may have felt a little excessive to some of you when the stylish 6.7-incher made its regional commercial debut a few months ago, but right now, you can save a cool 150 bucks without jumping through any hoops.

That’s true both at Best Buy and Motorola’s official US e-store, while Amazon is curiously restricting the exact same deal to its Prime members only. Interestingly, the promotion is not advertised as a Black Friday affair in any of those three places, which means that at least in theory, an even bigger discount could still arrive in time for Thanksgiving or Christmas.
I personally don’t think that will be the case, though, as the new deal matches the phone’s deepest price cut yet, which was previously only available for a very limited time at Best Buy a little over a month ago.
Perhaps more importantly, this is just too good of a device to drop to $349.99 or even $379.99 so soon after its release, as our comprehensive Motorola Edge (2025) review makes abundantly clear. By no means a perfect phone due to small flaws like an overly reflective screen and mediocre MediaTek Dimensity 7400 Ultra processor, the budget-friendly mid-ranger comes with a gloriously curved design, sleek vegan leather finish, military-grade durability, a relatively slim (all things considered) 8mm profile, a respectable 8GB RAM count paired with a generous 256 gigs of internal storage space, and a hefty 5,200mAh battery impressively capable of charging at 68W speeds.
Its direct competition? Maybe a Pixel 9a with a significantly smaller screen in tow or maybe a Galaxy S25 FE that still costs a lot more than four Benjamins at its early Black Friday 2025 discount. In other words, the Motorola Edge (2025) might be a value proposition like no other ahead of the holidays.

Unlimited plans for $15/mo at Mint!

Mint Mobile is also offering an incredible bargain for those seeking unlimited data! The carrier’s latest deal lets you grab any unlimited plan for just $15/mo, bringing the 12-month Unlimited plan to $180 instead of $360.

The best Galaxy S25 Edge promo returns on Amazon after Prime Day

by admin
written by admin

Missed out on Amazon’s epic Prime Day Galaxy S25 Edge deal? Don’t worry — it’s back! Miraculously, the 512GB model has once again plunged by a whopping $490 from its original $1,220 price. That brings it to just under $730. And here’s the real kicker — the sale is now open to everyone, whereas during the event, you needed a Prime membership to take advantage of it.

Save $490 on the Galaxy S25 Edge

$490 off (40%)

The Galaxy S25 Edge is back to its lowest price on Amazon! Right now, the premium and ultra-thin smartphone is down by $490 — just like on Prime Day. But now, the sale is available to everyone!


Buy at Amazon

This deal, by the way, beats Samsung’s own ongoing offer — and by $290, no less! Sure, you can also trade in an eligible device, but the maximum trade-in discount available is $530 right now. Obviously, that’s not dramatically bigger than Amazon’s offer. And the e-commerce giant isn’t making you spare an old device in good condition, so…With its 5.8mm profile, this Samsung phone is meant to catch the eye. But it’s not just the slim design that impresses. The device also packs top-tier performance with its Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, which provides immense potential for all sorts of tasks. As you can see from our Galaxy S25 Edge review, it scores just a bit lower than the S25+ on benchmark tests, but you’ll still get excellent performance.
True to its Samsung flagship nature, this bad boy also features a superb display. Measuring 6.7 inches, featuring AMOLED technology for vivid colors, and excellent brightness levels, it’s a real feast for the eyes. The camera is another highlight. This Android phone has a 200MP main lens, capturing excellent colors and great detail.

By now, you’re probably wondering where’s the tradeoff? Well, it’s the battery size: 3,900mAh under the hood sounds pretty unimpressive for a flagship phone. But our in-house tests actually show it will last you nearly 17 hours with nonstop browsing, which isn’t half bad at all.

All things considered, the Galaxy S25 Edge is a pretty great choice for dedicated Samsung fans. And now, it’s back at 40% off its original price, making it a much smarter pick. Get yours and save $490 with this epic limited-time sale.

Motorola’s iPhone Air and Galaxy S25 Edge challenger will put their batteries to shame

by admin
written by admin

Motorola is joining the ultra-slim smartphone market, but it plans to challenge the Galaxy S25 Edge and iPhone Air with a much better battery. The company has started teasing the Edge 70, and plans to reveal something new every Wednesday until the final announcement on November 5.

Motorola has officially revealed a giant battery for the Edge 70

The first bit of information shared by the company is that the Edge 70 will have a 4,800 mAh battery. According to a teaser page on Motorola’s Bulgarian site, the device will feature a silicon-carbon battery, and it’ll support 68W charging. Further down, the legal notices section includes more details about the phone, which are not mentioned on the page. According to them, the Motorola Edge 70 will have an IP68/IP69 rating and a 50MP ultra-wide camera. The page also mentions versions with 8GB and 12GB RAM, a Gorilla Glass 7i, and Dolby Atmos.

Part of the notes is also a notice about Circle to Search and clarification that moto AI features will be available in nine languages. Those are:

  • English
  • Spanish
  • Portuguese
  • Japanese
  • German
  • French
  • Polish
  • Romanian
  • Italian

A formidable challenger

Motorola Edge 70 is rumored to measure 5.8 mm, which would match the thickness of the Galaxy S25 Edge. However, Samsung’s device has a rather humble 3,900 mAh battery on board. Apple’s iPhone Air has an even smaller battery with 3,149 mAh capacity, and it’s 5.6 mm thick.

Unlike Apple and Samsung, the Edge 70 won’t feature a flagship processor, and it may rely on a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chipset. However, its price still seems to be unknown. A listing at one Italian retailer has a price of €709, but another one has it for €801.91.

Ultra slim for the masses

While the Motorola Edge 70 is surely not aiming to provide the flagship experience that Apple and Samsung are offering, it will be the first more affordable slim smartphone on the global market. That could turn out to be crucial for the future of smartphones.

Feast your eyes on the sub-6mm Motorola Edge 70 in a newly leaked promo video!

by admin
written by admin

Is this the Moto X70 Air or the Motorola Edge 70?

If that’s the case and Blass managed to get his hands on official promotional material for the Motorola Edge 70 already, the chances of seeing the phone take on the aforementioned Galaxy S25 Edge and iPhone Air in countries like India, various European markets, and perhaps even the US in 2025 are all of a sudden pretty solid.

Now, you have to remember that the “regular” Edge 70 is widely expected to follow in the footsteps of the Edge 60 with mid-range specifications and an affordable price, although if this device is in the pipeline, higher-end Pro and Ultra variants could also be coming relatively soon.
While there are no reasons to question the legitimacy of the promo video leaked by Evan Blass due to the weight of that name in the mobile tech journalism space, we’re clearly dealing with an unfinished version of the clip lacking both sound and the text typically used by companies like Motorola to build excitement over their latest products.

That means very few technical details are etched in stone, although if you look closely, you’ll notice that the Pantone Lily Pad colorway rumored a few days ago is now essentially confirmed, and the same goes for a primary 50MP rear-facing camera with optical image stabilization.

Can Motorola provide stiff competition for Samsung and Apple?

That’s definitely way too early to tell, but the first signs are undeniably promising, starting with a vague but thrilling “sub-6mm” waist prediction from the man, the legend Evan Blass.

The iPhone Air and Galaxy S25 Edge, in case you’re wondering, currently stand at 5.6 and 5.8mm thickness respectively, so the Edge 70 could still prove ever-so-slightly “chunkier” than both its rivals.

But once again, this is unlikely to be a true rivalry, as Motorola’s first ultra-thin handset… of the last few years is almost definitely not a costly flagship. If the Edge 60 is any indication, this bad boy could be priced at around €500 ($585) in Europe with 12GB RAM, 512GB storage, and… the biggest battery that can possibly be squeezed into that sleek and elegant body.

I’m not going to make any predictions on that latter front just yet, but with the Moto G86 Power this year packing a colossal 6,720mAh cell while somehow measuring 8.7mm in thickness, the sky is clearly the limit for what kind of advantage Motorola can gain on Samsung in the battery life department.

In addition to Pantone Lily Pad, the Motorola Edge 70 is today depicted in “Gadget Gray” and “Bronze Green” hues, but even though those are all very eye-catching and nice, it’s not clear if any of them will use the company’s signature vegan leather finish or go the more conventional shiny glass route.

Just how excited should you be here?

Well, I don’t know about you, but I remain as intrigued by this device as I declared and explained last week. Of course, that’s because I’m not a particularly big fan of ultra-high-end handsets, and I know I can live with (pretty much) any mid-range processor Motorola might choose to equip the Edge 70 with.

Yes, I’d love to see the Edge 60‘s MediaTek Dimensity 7300 SoC replaced with a Qualcomm Snapdragon chipset (ideally, a Snapdragon 7 Gen 4), but because that wish is unlikely to come true, I’ll just focus on dreaming of a stylish and unusually robust Edge 70 with a 5,000mAh or so battery under the hood and a sub-$500 price point in the US. I know, that’s also hard to pull off for Motorola, but not impossible. Not in my (dream) world, at least.

Weekly deals roundup: Galaxy Z Fold 7, S25 Edge, iPad Air (2025), and so many more huge discounts!

by admin
written by admin

Are you excited about Amazon’s undoubtedly massive member-exclusive sales event next month? Well, why wait until then when the e-commerce giant and other top retailers and industry-leading device manufacturers are already heavily discounting so many amazing products for so many different user needs and budgets?

Will these discounts stand the test of time and remain unbeaten when this fall’s Prime Big Deal Days promotions roll out on October 7? Probably not, but if patience is not your greatest quality and/or don’t have and don’t want to get an Amazon Prime membership, you’ll definitely relish some of the following opportunities to minimize your spending ahead of the upcoming holiday season.

This week’s top three deals might actually be impossible to eclipse

If you still don’t have the dough for probably the best foldable phone available today (at least until the Pixel 10 Pro Fold starts selling), you can always go for a “conventional” Galaxy S25 Edge (with a decidedly unconventional 5.8mm profile) and save almost the same amount of money with equally little hassle.

Buy at Motorola

Clearly, I’m even less confident that these are the highest discounts Amazon can offer on Motorola’s 2025-released Moto G Power, Edge, Razr, Razr Plus, and Razr Ultra, but if you’re in a hurry, any one of these undeniably stylish and outstandingly feature-packed devices can be the best Android phone for your specific taste and budget.
I especially like the state-of-the-art Razr Ultra (2025) foldable for… fairly obvious reasons (like those huge screens and that super-powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite processor), as well as the nice little discount and free smartwatch currently available from Motorola.
The OnePlus 13, meanwhile, might just be the best non-foldable Android high-ender you can buy today at a cool discount and with a nice little gift included, followed by the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE and Galaxy S25 FE for slightly more cash-strapped power users.

Now that’s a rich harvest of phenomenal tablet deals!

No, the aforementioned 11-inch iPad Air (M3) is not Apple’s only 2025-released tablet you can currently get at a big discount, with its 13-inch brother also costing 150 bucks less than usual in a number of different models and configurations.
For Android tablet fans, meanwhile, I’ve got both cheaper and pricier products to recommend this week, with two different Lenovo models dominating the former category and two fresh Samsung powerhouses found in the latter subsection of this section of my latest weekly deals roundup.
That puts the OnePlus Pad 3 in a bit of an uncomfortable position, costing more than the gaming-centric Lenovo Legion Tab Gen 3 and not an awful lot less than the iPad Air 13 (2025)… for a pretty good reason – a Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC that the Galaxy Tab S11 and Tab S11 Ultra can’t compete against. The OnePlus Pad 3 is more affordable than ever before (not counting trade-in deals and gifts, at least), so it’s clearly also a great option… for the right type of customer.

These are the best smartwatch deals you can get today

I’m not going to lie to you, the Galaxy Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic, and Watch Ultra (2025) are obviously not the most diverse smartwatches in the world. But you don’t necessarily have to be a hardcore Samsung fan or a Galaxy phone owner to find the company’s latest (and greatest) wearable devices not just convenient to use alongside your Android handset, but pretty much impossible to beat in terms of value for your money right now.

No, I’m afraid I don’t have any good AirPods Pro 3 launch promo to recommend, and the AirPods Pro 2 are (somewhat bizarrely) not available at a substantial discount (any longer) either.
But the Apple-made Beats Studio Buds, Studio Buds Plus, and Powerbeats Pro 2 are in at least one key way better than the company’s entire AirPods portfolio, natively supporting both iPhones and Android handsets. All the other features and capabilities are also pretty great (especially for those reduced prices), but Samsung’s top-of-the-line Galaxy Buds 3 Pro deserve a mention too at a nice $60 discount of their own.

Galaxy S25 Edge crushes the iPhone Air performance in benchmark tests, but only sometimes

by admin
written by admin

Apple has just announced the iPhone Air, equipping it with a version of the A19 Pro, which is its best-performing chipset. That puts the ultra slim device right against the Galaxy S25 Edge, and now we have the first opportunity to see which one is faster.

Unfortunately, the answer may turn out to be a little more complicated than fans of either brand would like. On the bright side, you can say either is faster, as long as you’re okay with a bit of cherry picking. 

We don’t have a clear winner between the iPhone Air and the Galaxy S25 Edge

The first benchmarks for the iPhone Air have started showing up on Geekbench, revealing that Apple has kept its promise to provide top-tier performance for the ultra-slim device. The single-core score of the iPhone Air ranges from 3,206 to over 3,700 points, and the multi-core score is between 8,546 and 9,737 points in different runs.Comparing that to the results of the Galaxy S25 Edge makes for an interesting journey. Samsung’s ultra-slim phone has been available for months, so there is more data on Geekbench’s database. However, the single-core scores from the last few days range from 1,579 to 3,205, and the multi-core scores go as low as 6,564 and as high as 10,102.

Keep in mind that many people own a Galaxy S25 Edge and are running tests in all sorts of conditions. Once the iPhone Air reaches its first owners, it is likely to see a similarly wide range of scores. Even with that in mind, the S25 Edge outperforms the iPhone Air in its best multi-core tests and lags in the single-core tests. That doesn’t tell the full story, though.

Which phone do you want to appear faster?

If we compare the average scores of all available iPhone Air tests and the averages of all Galaxy S25 Edge since September 9, Apple is clearly doing better. In fact, the difference between the average scores looks jarring.

Best scoreAverage score
iPhone Air (single-core)3,7363,642
Galaxy S25 Edge (single-core)3,2052,634
iPhone Air (multi-core)9,7379,496
Galaxy S25 Edge (multi-core)10,1028,818

Before Samsung fans get mad, I need to clarify that with a bit of cherry picking, we can make either of the devices look superior. And that’s the main issue with such comparisons – they’re rarely representative of how the devices perform in real life.

There’s something more important

Looking at the scores, the only thing I can safely say is that both phones are fast. I don’t think any of them would stumble with any task. What’s left to see is how the iPhone Air holds up under sustained load, which is probably more important than the peak performance.

The Motorola Edge (2024) is once again bundled with a fantastic $349.99 gift

by admin
written by admin

Mid-range phone buyers might be waiting for a sweet discount on the Pixel 9a, but Motorola has a very tempting offer that makes its Edge (2024) look far more attractive. This $549.99 Android phone now arrives with a $349.99 gift. And it’s not just any accessory you won’t ever use, by the way. It’s the Lenovo Tab Plus, a tablet with an impressive speaker system and great performance for everyday tasks.

Motorola Edge (2024) + $349.99 gift

Right now, Motorola bundles its Edge (2024) with a free Lenovo Tab Plus, making its mid-ranger way more attractive. Although you’d have to pay full price for the smartphone, the official store lets you trade in an eligible device and unlock a discount. Don’t miss out.

Save $250 on the Edge (2024) at Amazon

$250 off (45%)

If you’d rather get a discount on your next mid-range phone instead of a free tablet, head over to Amazon. Right now, the e-commerce giant lets you save $250 on the Edge (2024), knocking it just under $300.


Buy at Amazon

Granted, there’s no price cut on the smartphone, but you can still unlock some savings with eligible device trade-ins. Truth be told, this promo is worth considering even without the trade-in credit. After all, you’re saving $349.99 on a tablet the whole family can use. Don’t really like this bundle offer? No worries. You can get the Edge (2024) at Amazon for just under $300 — 45% off its original price. This mid-ranger certainly isn’t the hottest option out there, but it’s still a proper device worth your attention. It features a fantastic 6.6-inch OLED display with excellent brightness levels and up to a 120Hz refresh rate. With HDR10+ support and a sharp FHD+ resolution, this fella delivers a fantastic visual experience.
The Motorola phone is also quite durable. It has an IP68 rating and Gorilla Glass 3 protection for solid protection against scratches. And with such high water and dust resistance, an accidental drop in water shouldn’t do major damage. When it comes to performance, this device is no benchmark winner, as evident in our Edge (2024) review. Of course, raw numbers don’t tell the full picture, and you’ll find its Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chip more than decent for everyday use. Expect no stutter while navigating the UI and even some gaming potential, albeit at lowered settings.

At the end of the day, the Edge (2024) might be easy to overlook when it’s not on sale, but now that it’s bundled with a fantastic $349.99 gift, it’s more than worth checking out. Get yours and score a free Lenovo Tab Plus while Motorola’s promo lasts.

iPhone Air has not one, but two advantages over the S25 Edge: that’s smash hit potential

by admin
written by admin

The iPhone Air doesn’t just take on its Samsung nemesis – the Galaxy S25 Edge – it outclasses it in two (or three) crucial ways. Apple made it both slimmer and cheaper, while still packing in its most advanced processor (we’re eager to test the A19 Pro against the Snapdragon 8 Elite). That combination of sleek design and flagship performance gives the new model a real shot at breakout success.

A whole new phone!

Tim Cook took us by the hand on a magic carpet ride and got us singing “A whole new phone!” In a year when many expected only small, predictable upgrades, this balance of design and power feels like a deliberate push to reignite excitement around the iPhone lineup.

By undercutting Samsung on price and beating it on thinness, Apple has positioned the Air as more than just another mid-tier option. It is being framed as the sleekest iPhone yet, one that challenges the idea that a cheaper phone has to compromise on cutting-edge performance. Those twin advantages could give Apple exactly the spark it needs heading into the most competitive stretch of the smartphone calendar.

Apple introduced the iPhone Air as its slimmest handset ever, measuring just 5.6 millimeters, slightly thinner than Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge at 5.8 millimeters. The pricing also delivers a direct challenge, coming in $100 below Samsung’s launch price: $999 vs $1,099.

Great expectations

Analysts believe this gives Apple an opening to win over cost-conscious buyers, especially since the Air effectively takes the place of the iPhone Plus, which already made up a steady share of Apple’s shipments. On the inside, it runs the A19 Pro processor, a chip built to handle artificial intelligence tasks, while its titanium frame and ceramic shield glass were highlighted for added durability.

I heard loud claps the moment it [the iPhone Air] was announced.

– Gaurav Chaudhary, a YouTuber known as “Technical Guruji”, for Reuters, September 2025

The reception at Apple’s Cupertino event was unusually lively, with applause breaking out the moment the Air was unveiled. Observers such as tech creators who attended in person described the device as strikingly thin and polished, even after months of leaks hinting at its design.

Yet for all its polish, the iPhone Air comes with trade-offs. The slimmer build means the battery is smaller, and Apple’s assurance of all-day life will need to be proven under real-world conditions. This is a real concern.

There is also the matter of optics: the Air carries only a single rear camera, a step back compared to the dual-camera setup of the regular iPhone 17 and the triple-lens systems on the Pro models.

These decisions make efficiency and software optimization critical, and Apple will be leaning heavily on its custom chip design to convince buyers that performance and longevity have not been sacrificed in the pursuit of thinness.

A potential hit

Even with those questions, many analysts see the iPhone Air as a potential bestseller.

The combination of design novelty and a lower price point could encourage upgrades from long-time iPhone owners, while also helping Apple regain momentum in markets like China, where slimmer phones from local rivals have gained ground.

Commentators noted that the Air feels reminiscent of the original MacBook Air reveal, which set a new standard for portability and engineering. In the same way, this phone could mark a reinvention moment for Apple – and Apple needs such a moment so badly.

Generous deal turns the Motorola Edge (2024) into the most powerful phone below $200

by admin
written by admin

While the mid-range Edge (2025) is definitely an absolute bargain after a hefty discount at both the official Motorola store and Amazon, you may want to check out its predecessor as well if you want to spend as little as possible on a new capable handset and don’t mind getting an older model.

Just like Motorola’s latest mid-ranger, the Edge (2024) is discounted at both the official store and Amazon, but with a massive $250 price drop, bringing it below the $300 mark. And if you have a phone to trade, you could slash an additional $100 off by trading it in with Motorola. The tech giant claims that most trade-ins qualify for a $100 discount, so chances are high you could save that amount by parting with your old smartphone.

Edge (2024): Save up to $350 at Motorola!

Motorola is offering a hefty $250 discount on its Edge (2024), letting you score one for just under $300. On top of that, you could save an additional $100 by trading in your old phone. All this makes the Edge (2024) an absolute steal, so, don’t miss out!

Sure, our friend here may be an older device, but it still holds its ground, making it an absolute steal. For instance, it comes equipped with a Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset and 8GB of RAM, delivering speedy performance on a phone that could be yours for less than $200. In fact, we even managed to run demanding games like League of Legends: Wild Rift during our in-depth review, so it’s probably the most powerful phone under $200 right now.

We were also quite pleased with its gorgeous 6.6-inch P-OLED display featuring a 2400 x 1080 resolution and HDR support. The screen delivers beautiful visuals that you rarely see on phones below the $200 mark. To top it all off, there’s a high 144Hz refresh rate, making scrolling a breeze.

Of course, since this is a mid-range phone, the area where it falls short is the camera department. Yet you still get a capable 50MP main unit on board, which takes pretty decent photos even though it can’t rival the best camera phones on the market.

So, should you buy the Motorola Edge (2024)? Well, you definitely should get one while it’s still available for up to $350 off. Just don’t wait around too long, as you never know when these unmissable deals may become a thing of the past.

The Galaxy S26 Edge leaks out in all its ultra-thin glory with a… questionable design choice

by admin
written by admin

If you thought this year’s first-of-a-kind Galaxy S25 Edge looked… unconventional (especially before the iPhone 17 Air is unveiled), with a crazy thin 5.8mm profile and a relatively modest rear-facing camera system (at least compared to the likes of the Galaxy S25 Ultra), wait until you see the handset’s 2026 successor in high-quality product depictions.

Believe it or not, there’s no need to wait four or five more months for that, as the (almost) always trustworthy Steve Hemmerstoffer over on X has already partnered with the equally reputable folks at Android Headlines to blow the S26 Edge’s cover.

Wasp waist, big hump, and a lot of responsibility on one phone’s shoulders

Perfectly in line with a number of recent rumors, the Galaxy S26 Edge is once again tipped to replace both the S25 Edge and S25 Plus in Samsung’s main 2026 Android flagship trio.

The S26 Edge is incredibly expected to measure 5.5mm at its thinnest point, but also no less than 10.8mm at its thickest point due to employing a camera island that’s likely to be visible from Mars. This will stretch from one side of the phone to the other… for some reason, occupying more than a quarter of the entire back panel surface while only housing two imaging sensors arranged vertically in the top left corner.
It’s obviously not clear why this component has to be so large and… visually invasive, but there’s a possibility that some crucial parts are hidden behind this bulge to make room for a bigger battery while (technically) reducing the thickness of the Galaxy S25 Edge.
The S26 Edge, remember, is expected to improve its predecessor’s modest 3,900mAh cell capacity to around 4,200mAh… or more, depending on what tipster you ask and when. 

What else do we know about the Galaxy S26 Edge?

Apart from some of the cosmetic details made obvious and pretty much etched in stone by today’s leak, like a centered hole punch front-facing camera, reasonably thin (and uniform) screen bezels, and rounded corners, the S25 Edge‘s direct sequel (and the S25 Plus’s indirect follow-up) is also likely to measure an unsurprising 6.7 inches in display diagonal.

That matches the screen size of both the Galaxy S25+ and S25 Edge, so it also shouldn’t come as a surprise that the S26 Edge’s expected height of 158.4mm and 75.7mm width closely resembles the same dimensions of the phone’s two predecessors.

More interestingly, today’s Android Headlines report (which is all but guaranteed to prove 100 percent reliable if history is any indication) claims the Galaxy S26 Edge will feature built-in magnets for full Qi2 wireless charging support.

 

That almost certainly means the entire Galaxy S26 family will have that feature, just like Google’s entire Pixel 10 roster and Apple’s soon-to-be-unveiled iPhone 17 lineup. While Samsung isn’t exactly going to innovate in the field by following the examples of its arch-rivals, at least the company will no longer be left behind, further improving the convenience of its best phones in addition to their raw power, camera performance, and hopefully, battery life.
