While the Galaxy S25 Edge is undoubtedly sleek and lightweight, it has taken a few hits in other areas, especially in terms of battery capacity. Many who are interested in buying an ultra-slim phone are skeptical about the Galaxy S25 Edge's battery life. However, a Samsung executive has addressed those concerns in an interview.

In an interview with Tom's Hardware, Blake Gaiser, the director of smartphone product management at Samsung Electronics America, said focusing on just the hardware specs of the Galaxy S25 Edge over the experience is beside the point and explained how it is the Goldilocks of smartphones. He said while the company did cut down the battery capacity to make the phone thinner, it designed it in a way that it still lasts all day for most users.

Gaiser said that the company's internal testing shows that the Galaxy S25 Edge lasts from “sun up to sun down” without needing a recharge. The phone lasts longer than the base Galaxy S24. In the company's books, that is a good enough experience in terms of battery life for most users. He said he personally didn't have any major issue with the phone's battery life.

Enthusiasts are miffed that Samsung lost the perfect opportunity to bring Silicon Carbon batteries with the Galaxy S25 Edge. Such batteries generally offer at least 15% higher capacity in the same volume as traditional lithium-ion batteries. So, the Galaxy S25 Edge could have had a 4,500mAh battery with the Silicon Carbon technology. However, the Samsung executive said the company felt that going with lithium-ion batteries was the right move for now.

In our own experience, the Galaxy S25 Edge battery life has been shorter than expectations. You can watch our Galaxy S25 Edge review in the video above or read the review in detail here.

Gaiser also said that there are enough users out there who want some features from the Galaxy S25 Ultra without all the bulk, the camera bump, and the S Pen. Hence, the company made the Galaxy S25 Edge that offers a sleek design while still offering some premium features like a titanium frame, a 200MP camera, a flagship chipset, several AI features, and seven major Android OS updates.
