{"slug":"galaxy-s25-vs-galaxy-s25-plus","question":"Galaxy S25 vs Galaxy S25 Plus: Battery for Years of Use","answer":"Choose the Galaxy S25+ if battery is the main worry for 4 to 5 years of use: Samsung says it has a 4,900 mAh battery and 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0, against a 4,000 mAh battery and 25W Super Fast Charging on the Galaxy S25, plus a 6.7-inch QHD+ screen against a 6.2-inch FHD+ screen. Choose the Galaxy S25 for the compact phone and lighter use, because Samsung says both have a 50 MP wide camera, a 12 MP ultrawide camera, a 10 MP telephoto camera, and a 12 MP selfie camera, so the extra money buys battery, charging, and screen, not better photos. Neither is better for everyone; it depends on whether battery or a smaller phone matters more.","answer_curated":true,"verdict":"Best battery, charging, and screen: Galaxy S25+. 4,900 mAh, 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0, and a 6.7-inch QHD+ display.\n\nBest compact phone: Galaxy S25. 4,000 mAh, 25W Super Fast Charging, and a 6.2-inch FHD+ display.

Wired charging is 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0 on the Galaxy S25+ and 25W Super Fast Charging on the Galaxy S25. Samsung says both support Fast Wireless Charging 2.0 and Wireless PowerShare. The Galaxy S25+ starts with more capacity and faster wired charging. That is the battery gap.

Samsung says both have a 12 MP ultrawide camera, a 50 MP wide camera, a 10 MP telephoto camera, and a 12 MP selfie camera. Samsung New Zealand gives that setup as a 50 MP main camera at F1.8, a 10 MP telephoto camera at F2.4, a 12 MP ultrawide camera at F2.2, and a 12 MP front camera at F2.2.

Samsung says the Galaxy S25 is a 6.2-inch FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with a 120 Hz adaptive refresh rate, a 4,000 mAh battery, and the same cameras as the Galaxy S25+. Samsung New Zealand gives its size as 146.9 x 70.5 x 7.2 mm and 162 g.
