Samsung Galaxy S25 may face price increase ahead of January launch

New leaks suggest that the Samsung Galaxy S25 may see a price increase. The phone is expected to be announced on January 22 and go on sale in Korea and the U.S. on February 7. The Galaxy S25 will feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor globally, contrary to earlier reports that some regions might use the Exynos chip. The Slim model will also be revealed at the Unpacked event. The price hike is linked to rising exchange rates following a recent incident in South Korea. Estimates suggest an increase of $50 to $100, though the exact amount remains unclear.
