The Galaxy S25 Edge is a fine device, but there are a few other Android phones I'd recommend buying instead. Here are my top alternatives.

While it's possible there will be more to the final One UI 8 update, Samsung's decision to roll out the beta widely probably means this is very close to finished. Given the disappointing state of Galaxy AI at the S25's launch, it's troubling there's not more to care about in the Android 16 update so far.

Samsung's Galaxy S25 Ultra leaves the Note-like design behind for the very first time. With flat edges, curved corners, and a massive 6.9-inch display, this is a modern flagship through and through — and yes, that S Pen is still here too.
