Samsung is reportedly facing technical hurdles in Galaxy S25 Slim development. The company is said to be having issues with supply chain and components partners, leading it to end up skipping the adoption of evolving technologies.
According to the info, Samsung could skip adopting the next-gen PCB in Galaxy S25 Slim. Meanwhile, a new kind of battery is rumored to be used in the limited edition smartphone, while capacity improvements are unlikely.
The source disclosed that Samsung may not be able to bring a planned battery upgrade to the Slim variant. This is because of the delay in mass production of the substrate by applying new materials and techniques.
The reason is that thinner circuit boards could not be commercialized next year. Samsung has allegedly planned to reduce the S25 Slim by using a thinner PCB plate and a slimmer battery with increased height and width.
The battery aspect could see a revamp from the conventional solution. It is reported that the S25 Slim’s battery could feature a different form of cell and material. It will help Samsung marginally reduce the phone’s overall thickness.
