Summary of the Galaxy S25 Camera Design

Design Change: The Galaxy S25 series introduces a new design feature with color-matched rings around each camera, adding a fresh look to the devices.
Modular Design: These camera rings are not integrated into the phone's body but rather glued onto last year’s camera module. This was revealed in JerryRigEverything’s durability test, where the rings could be pried off, exposing the same camera module as the Galaxy S23 and S22.
Durability Test: The Galaxy S25 Ultra survived the test with minimal damage, similar to its predecessor, though it showed scratches at Moh's hardness level 6, a slight downgrade from the Galaxy S24 Ultra’s performance at level 7.
Availability: The Galaxy S25 series is now available for purchase, and some pre-orders are shipping early. Samsung has also launched a $30 Magnetic Wallet accessory for the new devices.
