This one's easy. Last year, the Galaxy S24 started at $799. This year, the Galaxy S25 starts at...$799. It's a wash, in other words. That said, it's possible that Samsung drops the price of the S24 after the launch of the S25, but until that happens, these two phones cost the same amount of money.

The new Samsung Galaxy S25 brings a couple of improvements to an otherwise aging form factor, almost negating the need for an upgrade.

Specifically, the Galaxy S25, the Galaxy S25+, and the Galaxy S25 Ultra. These three handsets replace the equivalent Galaxy S24 models that launched all the way back in January 2024, and you can check out our Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra review to remind yourself of what we thought of them.
