The highly anticipated Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra has recently been certified by the CQC authority in China, shedding light on some key details about the device, including charging support and satellite connectivity.
According to IceUniverse, satellite connectivity support is finally coming to the Galaxy S25 Ultra. This feature can be handy when no network coverage is available in emergencies. Users can contact emergency services through satellite, a technology that Apple first introduced with its iPhone 14 series.
Samsung seemed to have waited for Google to adopt the technology, as the recently launched Pixel 9 series also supports satellite messaging. The certification of the Galaxy S25 Ultra now points to the arrival of Samsung’s Satellite SOS tech. Other competitors like Huawei have also expanded satellite features across multiple devices, including smartwatches.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Design
Leaked renders from Onleaks have given us a glimpse of the Galaxy S25 Ultra design. The smartphone will feature slightly rounded corners and a flat frame similar to the iPhone. The camera ring design, however, may vary from the leaked images.
Apple’s Satellite SOS Tech
Apple’s Emergency SOS via satellite allows users to reach emergency services when cellular or Wi-Fi coverage is unavailable. Starting with the iPhone 14, Apple rolled out this life-saving feature across all newer models, including the iPhone 16. Samsung has been criticized for lacking this essential feature, which has become standard in flagship smartphones.
45W Wired Charging
The Galaxy S25 Ultra will continue to offer 45W wired charging, similar to its predecessors. Despite calls for faster charging speeds, Samsung is prioritizing a stable and reliable charging experience over the race to increase Wattage in flagship devices.
In summary, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra promises exciting new features, from Satellite SOS to a refreshed design, while maintaining a reliable user experience with 45W charging.
