Previously, Samsung’s upcoming tablets, the Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra and the Galaxy Tab S10 Plus, were spotted at the 3C certification platform in China. Today, a new Samsung phone with model number SM-S9380 has emerged in 3C’s database. Given the fact that the Galaxy S24 Ultra carried the SM-S9280 model number, it is safe to assume the SM-S9380 is the upcoming Galaxy S25 Ultra. At the same time, well-known leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer (OnLeaks) has shared a render to give the first look at its design.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra 3C certified
The Galaxy S25 Ultra’s 3C certification reveals that it will continue to support 45W charging like its predecessors. Like the S24 Ultra, the retail package of the S25 Ultra will not include a charger. What’s intriguing about this certification is that it also reveals support for satellite connectivity. Therefore, the S25 Ultra will be Samsung’s first phone to offer satellite communication support.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra design
The Galaxy S25 Ultra CAD renders released by OnLeaks in collaboration with AndroidHeadlines suggest that Samsung fans should not expect an overhaul in design compared to the S24 Ultra. However, readers should note that another reliable leaker, Ice Universe, claimed these renders are not 100 percent accurate because of some errors in the camera ring’s design, texture, bezels, and metal frame.

The new leak also states that the device will measure 162.8 x 77.6 x 8.2mm. In comparison, the S24 Ultra has 162.3 x 79 x 8.6mm. Therefore, the S25 Ultra is slightly taller, narrower, and thinner than its predecessor, the S24 Ultra. While the S24 Ultra weighs 232 grams, its successor is a lighter device, weighing 219 grams. In terms of screen size, it will have the same sized (6.8-inch) display as its predecessor. Shown below is a slightly modified version of the S25 Ultra’s CAD render by Ice Universe.
According to reports, the Galaxy S25 Ultra will have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 for Galaxy chip and a 5,000mAh battery. Its camera setup is expected to include the same 200-megapixel primary camera from S24 Ultra, a new 50-megapixel ISOCELL JN3 ultra-wide lens, a new 50-megapixel telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and a periscope telephoto camera with 5x optical zoom.
