KARACHI: Tech fans excitedly celebrate the launch of the S25 series from Samsung, with much anticipation being directed towards the S25 Ultra, which is its biggest rival the iPhone 16 Pro Max.
It has been launched in Pakistan, and pre-order booking is available on many portals for customers eager to get their first touch on the flagship.
The S25 Ultra has great specifications including a very strong body and blazing performances for all eyeballs, including gaming aficionados, developers, and camera mavens. Whether the high price will deter the prospective buyers may be justified by the hype being built around newly introduced AI features.
Most worrying, up close, is that the S25 Ultra features little in the way of major hardware changes; it is largely the same with just a larger display, Gorilla Armor 2, and a narrower bezel.
Samsung S25 Ultra is available for booking at price tag of Rs440,000.
While the device is a beast- it has a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip that gives a pretty big performance boost in heavy loads- its camera upgrades, frankly, fall a little flat. You’re treated to an ultra-wide sensor upgrade of 50 MP, but otherwise, the main and telephoto cameras remain mostly unchanged.
Overall, it’s an absolute beast of a device, and, unfortunately, there’s not really any new features that would justify the steep price tag, especially for those that already own previous iterations of the S23 or S24 Ultra. It will require serious reasoning as to whether or not the new model is worth considering by a potential buyer.
