The Galaxy S25 Edge and the iPhone Air are two of the thinnest phones on the market right now. In our iPhone Air vs Galaxy S25 Edge head-to-head, we declared Apple’s phone the winner, but if you’re on a budget — the Galaxy S25 Edge just got a killer price cut.
For a limited time, you can get the unlocked Galaxy S25 Edge for $689 at Amazon. That’s $10 cheaper than it was during the lead up to Prime Day and a new all-time price low for this amazing phone.
Although the iPhone Air narrowly beat the Galaxy S25 Edge in our head-to-head, the Galaxy S25 Edge’s Galaxy AI features are much better than any of the AI features found on the iPhone Air. (Sorry, Apple).
The biggest difference comes from Samsung’s cross-app actions feature, which relies on a combination of AI agents on the Galaxy S25 Edge to perform complex tasks. For example, you can speak a command, like asking when and where Doja Cat is playing next, while creating a calendar event for that to remind you about it later. You don’t get that on the iPhone Air.
There’s also the generative AI features of the Galaxy S25 Edge’s photo editing tools, like how Generative Edit is light years better at removing unwanted stuff in photos. In fact, we put it to the test against Apple’s Photo Clean Up feature and the results are a one-sided win for Samsung. The Galaxy S25 Edge’s camera app also offers the tools and modes that most videographers crave. Sure, the iPhone Air has some excellent features, like Dual Capture, but Samsung has long offered dual recording functionality — and it’s also available with the S25 Edge.
Although there’s always ongoing debate about whether the iPhone or Android is the better platform, the One UI 7 experience with the Galaxy S25 Edge has one feature you won’t get on any iPhone. It’s Samsung DeX, which allows your phone to act much like a desktop PC when it’s connected to a monitor.
This is a new price low for the and while we’re confident it’ll be on sale again during Black Friday, we doubt it’ll be significantly cheaper than this. So I recommend scoring this deal while you can.
