The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is rumored to borrow a key part of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 design
Take a look at the photos in our Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 review and you’ll see striking, black circles around the rear camera lenses – a design choice that’s apparently also coming to the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, according to the latest leak.
This comes via an image from a well-known tipster @UniverseelIceand you can see in the post below that there is a noticeable difference with the camera ring design choice on the current Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra model.
The image also matches previously leaked renders of this flagship, so it now seems pretty certain that this is the path Samsung will take with next year’s Ultra model. There are also rumors of more rounded edges and an asymmetrical frame.
Considering that the exact same design tweak has also been tipped for the Galaxy S25 Plus, there’s a good chance we’ll actually see this rear camera design on all three Samsung Galaxy S25 phones – which are expected to launch in January.
Ringing in the changes

You could argue that the new camera rings are less discreet and subtle in terms of aesthetics than what we have on the current Ultra model – but they have a certain kind of style of their own and it looks like they’re going to keep that. real cameras well protected.
According to this tipster, the camera rings will be “similar to the Fold 6’s camera ring design, but not exactly the same.” We’ll have to wait until these devices are actually announced to see if we can spot the differences.
Quite a few unofficial renders of the Galaxy S25 Ultra have leaked online in recent months, so we have a very good idea of what the phone will look like – assuming the leaks are accurate, of course.
We’ve also heard that the phone could have a slightly larger screen (6.86 inches instead of 6.8 inches, thanks to thinner bezels), and in addition to the design, there’s also talk of 16 GB of RAM on board (up from 12 GB ) and a significant performance improvement.
