This is interesting because it directly contradicts previous intel. Last month, the leaker Erencan Yılmaz revealed a Galaxy S25 Slim model number — SM-S937B/DS — which he claimed indicated a worldwide release (the ‘B’ in the code referring to it being sold in all regions that Samsung operates in).

In the end, it may not matter because the Galaxy S25 Slim is nothing more than a render. So far. If it is locked away at Samsung HQ waiting to be foisted on the buying public sometime later this year, think long and hard about the trade-off that comes with shaving a few millimeters off a modern smartphone.

Just like the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition before it, Samsung's next "Slim" flagship could run the risk of not being released in all major markets.
