After using the base S25 (12+256) for 1 week, below are my comments.
Pros:
1) Compact size and light weight, absolutely perfect for one handed use. Coming from S23U and S23FE which felt like bricks in the hands, this is a welcome change!😋
2) SD 8 Elite FG+12GB RAM is a huge plus, great RAM management. My S23U is not so good with RAM management anymore after 2 years, for some reason.🙏🏻
3) OneUI 7. It flies. Period. 🤩
4) Decent set of cameras. I'm not so bothered since it is my work phone. 🤷🏻
5) Galaxy AI features like object eraser and generative fill work better on my S25 than on my S23U. It is miles ahead of the nearest competition. 🤭
6) 4-4½h of AVG SOT which is very much okay for my usage of this phone.✌🏻
Cons:
1) A couple of bugs, even in stable software which is rare as far as OneUI is concerned. I have already posted about these bugs previously. 🪲
2) Haptics could have been better. It is tight but S23U still feels a lot better even though it is a 2y old phone at this point. 🫤
3) No OIS in Ultrawide lens, resulting in comparatively softer images.😫
