Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge US Pre-Orders Launch Alongside Final Specifications

A story by Necrolicious on .

Samsung unveiled the Galaxy S25 Edge on 13 May 2025 during its May Unpacked event, introducing a device that measures 5.8mm in thickness & weighs 163 grams, making it the slimmest in the S25 series. The phone has garnered attention for its design & specifications, but as I write from Japan, I’m opting to wait on this model—& the entire S25 lineup—due to personal preferences & regional market factors.

The Galaxy S25 Edge features a 6.7-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X LTPO display with a 120Hz refresh rate, protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2, which can endure drops from 3.3 feet onto concrete (NotebookCheck.net, 11 May 2025). It’s equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, 12GB of LPDDR5x RAM, & storage options of 256GB or 512GB (UFS 4.0). The camera setup includes a 200MP main sensor with optical image stabilisation & 2x optical zoom, alongside a 12MP ultra-wide lens & a 12MP front camera. Running Android 15 with One UI 7, the device supports connectivity options such as WiFi 7 & Bluetooth 5.4, housed in a titanium frame with an IP68 rating.

Here’s how the S25 Edge compares to the rest of the S25 series:

The S25 Edge, priced at $1,099, comes in Titanium Jetblack, Titanium Silver, & Titanium Icyblue. Its 3900mAh battery & 25W charging have sparked debate, with some reports indicating similar capacities in the S25 series often require midday charging (9to5Google, 2025). The device aligns with the trend of ultra-thin smartphones, competing with models like the upcoming iPhone 17 ‘Air.’ However, I’m not proceeding with a purchase. As with the base S25, which I also skipped, I’m awaiting news of the Galaxy Z Flip 7, expected around July or August 2025—roughly two months away. Rumours suggest the Flip 7 may feature a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset (or possibly an Exynos 2500), a 4-inch cover display, & a 4300mAh battery. As someone interested in foldables, I’m keen to see how Samsung progresses its flip phone range, especially after the Z Flip 6’s recognition for camera performance amongst foldables.

Being in Japan is another factor. Unlike in the U.S., where the S25 Edge has launched, there’s no news of its release here, with all official social media quietly ignoring the news, as is the norm. Samsung’s Japanese launches typically trail the West by several months, a curious delay given Japan’s proximity to Samsung’s Korean headquarters in Suwon. This lag, often linked to Apple’s dominance (46-49% market share, per NCESC.com) in the Japan market, suggests I may not see the S25 Edge until late summer or early autumn. This delay, combined with my greater interest in the Z Flip 7, makes waiting a more practical choice.

The Galaxy S25 Edge offers a slim design & modern specifications for those seeking such a device. For me, however, the prospect of Samsung’s next foldable & Japan’s market dynamics mean I’ll hold off for now.

Samsung One UI 7がアイボリーフィルターを削除、代替となる無料のトップ3フィルターを紹介

A story by Necrolicious on .

以前、Galaxy S25のデモモデルからアイボリーフィルターがなくなっていることに懸念を表明しましたが、私のSamsung Galaxy Z Flip 4が自動更新の設定になっていたようです。先週、Flip 4を手に取った際、One UI 7にアップデートされていることに気づきました。この古い端末は画面がひび割れているため、主に監視カメラとして使用しており、特に問題はありませんでした。しかし、One UI 7の機能を調べてみたところ、アイボリーフィルターが削除され、S25と同じカメラ設定に置き換わっていることに驚きました。

普段使いのGalaxy Z Flip 6にOne UI 7をインストールする予定でしたが、愛用していたアイボリーフィルターがなくなったため、現在はこのメイン端末へのアップデートを阻止するためにあらゆる手段を講じています。というのも、iPhoneに同様のフィルターがなかったことが、DJI Pocket 3を購入したものの、約6か月後にSamsungに戻った主な理由でした。希望するフィルターを得るために2つのデバイスを持ち歩くのは、あまりにも手間がかかりました。

そこで、避けられない状況に備え、同じ問題に直面している方々のために、アップデート済みのFlip 4でアイボリーフィルターの代替を探すべく、利用可能なすべてのフィルターをダウンロードして試しました。以下にその結果をまとめます。なお、比較のために右側のFlip 6ではアイボリーフィルターを適用しています。

@necrolicious

Samsung Flip 4をOne UI 7にアップデートしたのですが、残念ながらお気に入りのアイボリーフィルターが消えてしまったので、代わりのフィルターを探しています。 記事全文は私のブログでご覧いただけます。 @Samsung Japan もしご覧になっていたら、アイボリーフィルターを復活させてください！ One Ui 7 が Flip 6 にインストールされないように、あらゆる手段を講じてアイボリーフィルターを失わないようにしています。 #サムスン #samsung #oneui7 #samsunggalaxy #samsungflip4 #samsungflip6 #スマホ #スマートフォン #スマホカメラ #カメラ #フィルター

One UI 7では、古い写真をテンプレートとして使用してカスタムフィルターを作成できるため、アイボリーで撮影した写真を選択すれば簡単にアイボリーフィルターを再現できるように思えます。しかし、これはうまくいきません。アイボリーフィルターの特徴は、単に白を過度に露出させるだけでなく、ピンクや赤の色調にネオンのような輝きを加え、全体を柔らかくする夢のような霞を施す点にあります。アイボリーで撮影した写真を使ってカスタムフィルターを作成すると、白の露出は半分程度再現されるものの、ネオンの色調は得られず、霞も柔らかなぼかしではなく灰色がかってしまいます。この点は、私の紫色のコンタクトレンズを基準に評価しました。アイボリーフィルターではレンズに劇的な鮮やかさが加わるのに対し、カスタムフィルターではその効果がありません。

したがって、アイボリーフィルターを再現するためにこの方法を推奨することはできません。単に青白く、ゴシックや吸血鬼のような雰囲気を目指す場合でも、アイボリーで撮影した写真を使ってカスタムフィルターを作成するよりも優れた選択肢があります。ネオンの色調と夢のような霞を備えた、より近い代替フィルターを求める方のために、Samsungのネイティブカメラアプリで利用可能な無料のダウンロードフィルターの中で最適なものを以下に紹介します。この記事では、追加のアプリやアプリ内購入、サブスクリプションを必要としない、ネイティブカメラアプリで利用可能なフィルターに限定して検討しています。また、この記事はSamsungやフィルター開発者によるスポンサーではなく、個人的な取り組みであることを明記します（将来的にSamsungからのスポンサーを希望します！）。

1. STUDIO SJ – CK01（フィルター #49）

Galaxy Storeで入手：https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.candycamera.android.filter.CK01

このフィルターは、おそらく最も白が強調されます。ただし、画像の黒も薄れてしまうため、コントラストを重視する場合は、このフィルターのグレー調が適さない可能性があります。

2. STUDIO SJ – NewYork14（フィルター #42）

Galaxy Storeで入手：https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.candycamera.android.filter.NewYork14

CK01と比較して、暗い色に対するコントラストが強く、特に黒が際立ちます。ただし、わずかにベージュがかった色調が加わるため、より明るい白を求める場合はやや中間的な印象になるかもしれません。

3. STUDIO SJ – Rainbow07（フィルター #29）

Galaxy Storeで入手：https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.candycamera.android.filter.Rainbow07

3つの選択肢の中で、ピンクや赤の色調が最も強調されます。CK01と同様に、暗い色のコントラストが弱いため、黒を強く表現したい場合はNewYork14の方が適しているでしょう。

ご覧の通り、本物のアイボリーフィルターと完全に一致する代替品は存在せず、旧型のデバイスを使用するか、現在のデバイスを古いUIのまま維持する方が魅力的な選択肢となっています。

アイボリーフィルターの復活を求める声がますます高まっています。Samsungに復元を求める声に加わることで、皆さんも貢献できます。それまでの間、現時点では上記のフィルターが最良の代替品と言えるでしょう。

補足として、Samsungのフォーラムでc360p1フィルターがアイボリーの代替として提案されていましたが、なぜこのフィルターが推奨されたのか理解できません。ネオンの鮮やかさや霞がなく、単に色が薄いだけです。

Samsung One UI 7 Deletes the Ivory Filter, Here Are the Top 3 Free Replacements for the Ivory Filter

A story by Necrolicious on .

I previously expressed concern that Ivory was gone from the S25 demo models, but I guess my Samsung Flip 4 was set to automatically update, because when I picked it up last week, I realised it had updated to One UI 7. I didn’t have any particular problem with this, since I don’t generally use this old phone—its screen is cracked, so it mainly functions as a surveillance camera at this point—but I decided to take a tour of what One UI 7 offers, & to my horror, I discovered that the Ivory filter was gone, replaced with the same camera set up as the S25.

I had been waiting to install One UI 7 on my daily use Flip 6, but seeing that the Ivory filter—my favourite, main filter—was gone, I am now doing EVERYTHING I can to prevent One UI 7 from installing on this main phone. After all, the fact that iPhone did not have any such filter was a major factor in why I got a DJI Pocket 3 but STILL switched back to Samsung after only about 6 months–having 2 devices, neither of which had my preferred filter just to get kind of close to what I wanted was just too much hassle to deal with.

Anyway, in an effort to avoid what now appears to be inevitable, as well as to help others who are currently experiencing the same issue, I preemptively tried looking for a replacement for the Ivory filter on the updated Flip 4 by downloading EVERY available filter. Here are my findings. Note that the Ivory filter is applied on the Flip 6 on the right for reference.

Since One UI 7 allows you to create custom filters by using old photos as a template to apply to new ones, it seems like a no-brainer that you could easily get the Ivory filter back by simply selecting an Ivory-shot photo for this purpose, but that doesn’t work. What makes the Ivory filter special isn’t just that it overexposes whites—it ALSO adds a neon tinge to pink/red hues & a slight, dreamy haze to soften everything. Trying to create a custom filter using an Ivory-shot photo only succeeds halfway in the former aspect; you don’t get any neon hues, & the haze is more grey than soft fuzziness. My frame of reference for this is my purple contact lenses, to which the Ivory filter always lent a dramatic pop. As you can see, no such thing happens when using this custom filter.

Therefore, I cannot recommend this method of trying to get the Ivory filter back. If your goal is simply to look pale, goth or vampiric, there are better options than trying to use an Ivory-filtered photo to create a custom filter in an attempt to replace it. For those who want a closer replacement to the original Ivory filter, with neon tinge & dreamy haze, these are the best free downloadable filters that I can find for the native camera app. There may be additional third-party camera apps which better replicate the Ivory filter, but for the purpose of this article I am only focusing on downloadable filters which are available through the native Samsung camera app therefore requiring no additional apps or in app purchases/subscriptions. I’d like to further mention that this article is in no way sponsored by Samsung or these filter developers (but please sponsor me someday, Samsung!).

1. STUDIO SJ – CK01 (Filter #49)

Get it on the Galaxy Store here: https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.candycamera.android.filter.CK01

This one probably has the most white. As you can tell, that also washes out even the blacks in any image. If you’re going for contrast, the greys this offers might not be what you want.

2. STUDIO SJ – NewYork14 (Filter #42)

Get it on the Galaxy Store here: https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.candycamera.android.filter.NewYork14

This one offers more contrast to dark colours, especially when compared to CK01, but it imparts slightly beige tones as well. If you want brighter whites, this might be too neutral.

3. STUDIO SJ – Rainbow07 (Filter #29)

Get it on the Galaxy Store here: https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.candycamera.android.filter.Rainbow07

This one seems to offer the most pinks/reds of any of the three options. Like CK01 It lacks contrast when presenting any darker colors, making NewYork14 more attractive to any who wants darker blacks.

As you can tell, there is no exact one-for-one match to the real Ivory, making older devices or keeping current devices on older UI a more attractive option.

There seems to be an increasing demand for the return of the Ivory filter. You can do your part by joining the increasing number of voices asking Samsung to restore it but, in the meantime, it seems like these are the best available replacements.

As a bonus mention, somebody else in Samsung forums suggested the c360p1 filter as an Ivory replacement, but I have no idea why they did this because it doesn’t look like Ivory at all. It’s just washed out with no neon pop or haze.

New Samsung Flip 7 Design Leaks & I like it!

A story by Necrolicious on .

@OnLeaks in cooperation with Android Headlines reported a new Flip 7 design leak to the celebration of many Samsung enthusiasts, myself included!

Personally, I was never a fan of the shape of the screens of the Flip 5 & 6. Having joined the Flip series on its 4th iteration, I would say that the unattractive manila folder emoji design (📁) was a big factor in why I skipped over the Flip 5. However, when my Flip 4 broke, I HAD TO get the Flip 6 while still somewhat unhappy with this continued motif.

The new design is so much better that I am actually excited for an upgrade to this 7th generation of the Flip series, which I view as an inevitability at this point since I have learned just how delicate these devices are and do not expect them to last longer than maybe a year or two—making annual upgrades something of a necessary evil for fans of this form factor.

The full-faced design seems heavily inspired by Motorola’s latest line of Razr phones. When shopping for my last device, I tried one of the Razr phones in a local store, but the outer screen UI somehow just felt cheap compared to the more premium experience on Samsung’s device. This ultimately contributed to my decision, along with my familiarity with Samsung’s UI, to remain loyal to the Samsung brand. However, that is not to say that Motorola’s full-faced outer screen was unattractive, merely that the UI felt something like a website out of the 1990s.

Even if this rumoured redesign has no merit, I hope that Samsung takes note of the many comments providing extremely positive feedback & moves forward to make this full-faced design real. If this is actually what the Flip 7 will look like, I’m sold (provided they bring back the ivory camera filter).

DJI Osmo Pocket 3はもうSamsung Flip 6と互換性がないのか？

A story by Necrolicious on .

DJI Osmo Pocket 3はSamsung Flip 6と問題なく動作していましたが、Mic MiniのアップデートでMimoアプリに問題が発生し、それ以降すべてが急速に悪化しました。同じ問題を抱えている方はいませんか？

初めての症状

最初に気付いたのは音声の0.5秒から1.0秒のわずかな遅延だけでした。これはDJI Mic 2のせいだと誤って思っていましたが、そこまで重大ではありませんでした。しかし、時間が経つにつれて、追加の問題が明らかになりました。

さらに調査を進めると

追加のテストにより、問題はMic 2ではないことが判明しました。Pocket 3自体での再生には遅延がなく、Mic 2に接続された私の電話のネイティブカメラアプリにも遅延はありませんでした。この時点でDJIカスタマーサービスに連絡しました。彼らは音声遅延のビデオを求めてきました。このビデオを撮影しようとすると、標準ビデオモードから低照度モードに自動的に切り替わるのを確認しました。その後のビデオ撮影の試みでも、デバイスが標準ビデオモードからパノラマショットに自動的に切り替わる問題が発生しました。

さらに、デバイスではなくMimoアプリ上で、SDカードのエラーが繰り返し表示され、SDカードに問題があるか、SDカードが挿入されていないと言われました。

Mimo Osmo 7のアップデートは救いの手か？

カスタマーサービスとのやり取りの間に、DJIがOsmo 7ジンバルを発表し、それに関連するMimoアプリのアップデートがリリースされました。最初はSamsungの互換性問題が修正されていることを期待して興奮していましたが、アップデート後は状況が改善するどころか、ビデオ再生が非常に不安定になり、接続の安定性もさらに悪化しました。

私の試した解決策

私はテクノロジーに疎くないので、基本的なことは理解しています。Pocket 3の工場出荷時設定へのリセットやMimoキャッシュのクリアを試みましたが、それでも効果がなかったため、Mimoアプリの完全なアンインストール/再インストールを行いました。しかし、これらの方法では上記の問題に何の効果もありませんでした。

Samsungに最適化されていない

これらの問題の原因と解決策を調べるためにオンラインで調査を行ったところ、このカメラの問題を抱えている多くの人がSamsungやその他のAndroidデバイスのユーザーであることが明らかになりました。DJIはSamsungユーザーを気にかけていないようです。これは、DJIがApple App Storeに直接Mimoアプリをリリースしている一方で、AndroidユーザーはGoogle PlayストアではなくAPKファイルをダウンロードしなければならないという事実からも明らかです。DJIが中国企業であり、中国で最も人気のあるスマートフォンはiPhoneではなくAndroidであることを考えると、なぜiPhoneユーザーを優先するのか不思議に思います。

なぜDJI Pocket 3を購入したのか

私は長年Samsungユーザーでしたが（Appleで働いていたときでさえ）、日本で多くの人がiPhoneを使用しているため、iPhone 13 Pro Maxを試してみました。しかし、数ヶ月でそのiPhoneを売り、Samsung Flip 6を購入しました。iPhoneに非常に不満を感じていたため、その期間にPocket 3を購入しました。iPhoneには基本的な機能（クイックランチャー/クリップボード/デュアルスクリーンなど）が欠けているという極度の不便さを除けば、iPhoneのネイティブカメラは非常に悪いです。特に人の写真に奇妙なオレンジ色のフィルターを適用することがよくあります。もちろん、iPhoneの他のフィルターを試すことはできますが、問題を修正するどころか、それらは人々を鈍く/赤みがかったように見せる傾向があります。実際、多くのiPhoneで撮影された写真やビデオでは自分自身を認識できません。Samsungで撮影された写真では問題ありません。ポラロイド写真も日本で非常に人気があり、それらでも自分自身をちゃんと見られます。しかし、iPhoneの写真では自分自身を見ることができません。私だけではありません。ソーシャルメディア上で同じことを訴える多数のビデオがあります。iPhoneのカメラは特に内カメラでの人間の撮影に向いていないと言われています。誰もがこれについて話しているわけではありませんが、iPhoneのカメラが非常に悪化したため、多くの人がiPhoneカメラの代わりにヴィンテージのデジタルカメラを購入しています。このような問題から、私は完全に別のカメラが必要だと判断し、Pocket 3を購入しました。このような問題はありましたが、Samsung Flip 6を購入した後も使用していましたが、最新のMimoアップデートによってそれが壊れてしまいました。

解決策を待っている

DJI Pocket 3を使い続けるのは難しいようです。カスタマーサポートとの会話からは、あまり自信が持てません。彼らはログを引き出したいと言っていますが、私には問題ありません。しかし、それが私に直接何かしてくれるかどうかは示されていません。将来的にSamsungユーザーのためになるかもしれませんが、それが「かもしれない」強調しています。しかし、すぐには問題を解決する可能性は低いようです。Pocket 3からデバイスに直接ファイルを転送することはできますが、フィルターなどは適用されません。フィルターを使用する場合は、すべてMimoアプリを通じて行う必要があります。新しいiPhoneを購入してPocket 3を使い続けるつもりはありません。すでにサービスなしの古いiPhoneがありますが、それを持ち歩くだけでファイルを転送し、その後ホットスポット/SIMカードでクラウドに送信し、それをSamsungにダウンロードするというのは極度の不便さです。iPhoneを持っていた時はPocket 3は良かったですが、Samsungに戻った今、それを利用するために3つのデバイス間でビデオファイルを移動するのは極度の不便さです。DJIに返金を求めました。現在その返答を待っています。

Is the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 No Longer Compatible with the Samsung Flip 6?

A story by Necrolicious on .

The DJI Osmo Pocket 3 worked fine with the Samsung Flip 6…until the Mic Mini update hit the Mimo app, then things went south fast. Is anyone else having these issues?

First symptoms

At first, the only issue I noticed was a slight 0.5s-1.0s lag in the audio. I mistakenly attributed this to the DJI Mic 2. This seemed annoying, but it wasn’t too major. However, as time went on, additional issues became apparent.

On further inspection

Additional testing, however, showed that it was not the Mic 2. Playback on the Pocket 3 directly had no lag, neither did my phone’s native camera app when connected to the Mic 2. At this point I contacted DJI customer service. They requested a video of the audio lag. In attempting to shoot this requested video, we noticed that the mode had changed from standard video mode to low light on its own. Later attempts to capture more such videos had similar issues with the device switching itself from standard video mode to panoramic shot all by itself.

Additionally, on the Mimo app, not on the device directly, I repeatedly got SD card errors which alternated between saying that there was either an issue with the SD card or that there was no SD card inserted when there was.

Mimo Osmo 7 update saving grace?

In between my back & forth with their customer service, DJI announced the Osmo 7 gimbal, & a related update hit the Mimo app. At first I was excited, hoping that they had patched the Samsung compatibility issues with this update. However, after updating, things were not better but worse, with even video playback being extremely hit or miss & connection stability worse than ever.

My attempted fixes

I’m not a tech noob, so I know the basics. I performed both a factory reset of the Pocket 3 as well as clearing the Mimo caches &, when that didn’t work, a complete uninstall/reinstall of the Mimo app. However, nothing had any effect on the issues above.

Not optimized for Samsung

In conducting some online research to try to determine the cause and fix for these issues. it seems apparent that most of the people with who have issues with this camera are users of Samsung & other Android devices. It seems that DJI does not care about Samsung users. This is made apparent by the fact that they have released the Mimo app directly on the Apple App Store, whereas Android users must download an APK file instead of using the more regulated Google Play store. Given that DJI is a Chinese company, & China’s most popular phones are not iPhones but Androids, it really makes me wonder why they would choose to prioritize iPhone users instead.

Why I bought the DJI Pocket 3

I had gone from being a longtime Samsung user (even when I worked for Apple) to trying to use an iPhone 13 Pro Max here in Japan, since most people use iPhones here, but I only lasted a few months before selling that iPhone & buying a Samsung Flip 6. I bought the Pocket 3 during that period because I was extremely dissatisfied with the iPhone. Apart from the extreme inconvenience of iPhones missing a multitude of basic features (quick launchers/clipboard/dual-screening to name a few). the native iPhone camera is just disgusting. Often applying a strange orange filter to everything, especially pictures of people. Of course, you can try to use iPhone’s other filters, but rather than fixing issues, those tend to make people look dull/ruddy. I actually can’t even recognize myself in a lot of iPhone shot pictures or video. I look fine & like myself in Samsung-shot pictures. Polaroid pictures are very popular here in Japan, & I like fine/like myself in those as well. iPhone pictures just do not look like me. I’m not the only one saying this There are more multitudes of videos across social media complaining of the same thing, saying that the iPhone camera is not designed for people especially the internal camera. Not enough people are talking about this but the iPhone’s cameras have gotten so bad that many are choosing to buy vintage digital cameras rather than use the iPhone camera. It was due to issues like this, but I decided I needed an entirely separate camera. which is why I bought the Pocket 3. It was a nice fix that I continued to use even after buying my Samsung Flip 6 until these latest Mimo updates broke it.

Still waiting on a resolution

It seems unlikely that. I will be able to continue using the DJI Pocket 3. My conversations with customer support are not giving me a lot of confidence. They say they want to pull the logs, which I have no problem with, but does not seem to indicate that they can or will do anything for me directly. It might be for the benefit of Samsung users somewhere in the distant future. Emphasis on “Might.” However, it seems likely that it won’t solve my immediate issues. While you can transfer the files from the Pocket 3 to a device directly without the Mimo app, any sort of filters will not be applied. Everything must be done through the Mimo app if you wish to use them. I do not want to buy a new iPhone so that I can continue using this Pocket 3, which I really don’t need now that I have a Samsung phone again. While I have an old iphone without service laying around, I do not want to carry it around with me just to transfer files to it, then fiddle around with hotspots/SIM-cards to send it to a cloud & then download it to my Samsung. It’s just such an extreme time-wasting inconvenience. The Pocket 3 was fine when I had a lousy iPhone, but now that I have a Samsung phone again, I simply don’t have much need for this camera anymore as it is, let alone with the added extreme inconvenience of having to move video files between 3 just devices just to have any use of it. I have asked if DJI will provide me a refund. I am awaiting their reply as of this writing.

Samsung Quietly Removed the Ivory Filter From the Galaxy S25 Camera

今日は渋谷サムスンのポップアップでGalaxy S25を使ってみた。カメラのアプリでゴシックな方の一番好きなフィルター、「アイボリー」、が無かった。ダウンロード事も出来無い。スタッフと作ってみたが結局それも出来なかった。超がっかりしてた。今年のFlip 7でアイボリーフィルターが有ります用に。 無い場合はFlip 7を買いたく無い。 #サムスン #samsung #s25 #s25ultra #カメラ #フィルター #ゴシック #技術 #tech @Samsung @samsung.jpn

I went to Samsung’s Galaxy Experience Popup in Shibuya to get a little hands-on time with the S25.

I was very disappointed to discover that Samsung has sunset the goth-favourite camera filter, Ivory, with this model (after I got home, a quick web search confirmed its removal).

To the uninitiated, Samsung cameras have a ability to download tons of extra filters in addition to the default ones, but when I did a search for it, Ivory was still nowhere to be found.

The S25 has a new nifty ability to quickly create custom filters based on old/imported images but even after quicksharing some Ivory filter pictures from my Flip 6 to the demo S25 & playing around with them for 10ish minutes the staff & I were unable to replicate the exact hues of Ivory on the S25.

While I wasn’t particularly planning on buying an S25, this does not bode well for the forthcoming Flip 7, which I DO intend to buy.

Samsung, if you’re reading this, please bring back the Ivory filter to the default camera or otherwise make it available for download before the Flip 7 launches!

These are some pretty snazzy specifications. Of course, as is the norm these day, Samsung also leaned heavily in Galaxy AI enhancements.

As a longtime Samsung user, I am excited to see so much progress, but these models are not yet available in here in Japan. It may be shocking due to Japan’s proximity to Samsung’s headquarters in South Korea, but Samsung generally releases devices here months later than they do in the U.S.

Due to this, I am not personally in the market for a new device, having gotten my Samsung Galaxy Flip 6 just last Halloween. While I am very tempted by the increased power & features on these latest models (not to mention the fancy jade green option!), & would recommend a new Samsung device all day, every day over even the latest, greatest iPhone, I am just such a fan of the form factor of the Flip series, I don’t see myself even considering changing until the next Flip model is announced, likely in July.
