More than ever, Samsung needs a product to compete with the upcoming ultra-thin iPhone, and this is becoming increasingly evident.
In 2024, Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 17 Air - a smartphone with an ultra-thin design and replacing the Plus variant in the iPhone 17 lineup.
With iPhone 16 Plus users saying they are willing to sacrifice some features like the ultra-wide camera in exchange for a thinner and lighter design, there is clearly a strong consumer interest in smartphones with streamlined designs.
iPhone 17 Air will have a formidable competitor from Samsung.

Ahead of the iPhone 17 Air, Samsung is also preparing for the launch of a new variant in the Galaxy S25 series, believed to be the Galaxy S25 Slim.
According to information from an insider, Samsung is expected to release this phone model in April 2024, just 3 months after the Galaxy S25 officially hits shelves.
Now, a number of previously unseen models believed to be related to the Galaxy S25 series have leaked, further bolstering the rumors of the Galaxy S25 Slim.
This information lines up with an earlier report from ETNews that Samsung was adding a “Slim” version to the Galaxy S25 series, indicating that the company is indeed serious about ultra-thin phone designs.
The Galaxy S25 Slim is expected to be an important product not only to test market reactions but also to influence the design of the Galaxy S26 series expected to launch in early 2026.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy S25 series will not have many design changes compared to the Galaxy S24, except for the Ultra version with more rounded corners.
Galaxy S25 Slim will come with many powerful hardware features.

According to information from SmartPrix, the model number of the Galaxy S25 Slim is SM-S937U, which implies that this product will also be released in the US market.
Thus, Samsung does not seem to want to limit the Galaxy S25 Slim to some markets, but is an important part of Samsung's strategy to compete with the iPhone 17 Air.
With both Samsung and Apple moving towards developing slimmer versions of their flagship smartphones, it's no surprise that the world will see a wave of ultra-thin devices appearing more and more in the market.
