Upcoming Smartphone Launches In May 2025: We are set for an exciting month with popular brands like OnePlus, Samsung and Poco among others bringing their new smartphones to the market. OnePlus has already confirmed its launch plans for a new compact flagship which is likely to follow in the footsteps of the OnePlus 13T but Samsung is also vying for a coveted spot in the premium table with the iPhone 17 Air rival the Galaxy S25 Edge.
With an enticing lineup on the horizon, here’s a look at the big phone launches expected over the next 31 days in May.
Big Phone Launches In May 2025
Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge
Samsung has been teasing, previewing and even keeping it under a glass box, but it is high time we see the Galaxy S25 Edge get an official launch. Most reports said that will happen in April but the company was seemingly forced to change those plans, which means, we could see it launch in May. Rumours even say the Galaxy S25 Edge launch could be on May 13 which is still a few weeks away but no official word from Samsung on this yet.
The Galaxy S25 Edge is rumoured to sport a 6.6-inch AMOLED display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. But the biggest highlight of the device is its ultra-slim and lightweight design, measuring under 162 grams and a mere 5.84 mm in thickness.
Under the hood, the Galaxy S25 Edge is anticipated to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. However, the slim design of the Galaxy S25 Edge could become a problem, as the device will reportedly house a 3,900 mAh battery with 25W charging support to maintain its slender profile.
OnePlus 13s
The OnePlus 13s is officially confirmed to launch in India but the timeline is not very clear as of today, but we do expect major updates from the brand, with a May 2025 launch not being completely ruled out.
While OnePlus hasn’t said it directly, chances are that the OnePlus 13T will be rebranded as 13s in India. OnePlus 13s will become the third device in the OnePlus 13 series which already has the 13R in the lineup.
OnePlus has confirmed the 13s will be a flagship phone powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. It will feature a 6.32-inch display which makes it the ideal compact device with powerful credentials. The OnePlus 13s is also going to launch in black and pink colour options. The OnePlus 13s price in India is likely to start around Rs 55,000 which puts it below the OnePlus 13 model in the series.
Realme GT 7
Realme GT 7 is now gearing up for its launch in the Indian market. Realme has officially teased the smartphone’s arrival through its social media channels, highlighting its impressive gaming capabilities.
The device is confirmed to offer up to six hours of high-frame-rate gameplay on Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI). It is expected to join the Realme GT 7 Pro in the company’s latest lineup of gaming-focused smartphones in India.
The smartphone is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 9400+ chipset, coupled with up to 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB internal storage. It runs on Realme UI 6.0 based on Android 15.
Poco F7
Poco F7 is likely to debut globally in May and we could see the device launch along with the F7 Ultra in the Indian market as well. The new Poco F-series phone is likely to feature the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset with up to 16GB RAM which should make it a hard-core performance device.
It is expected to carry a 6.8-inch AMOLED display and packed with a massive 7,550mAh battery that might support 90W charging speed. The phone is likely to get IP69 rating and a dual-rear camera system.
iQOO Neo 10
iQOO launched the Neo 10R in the Indian market recently and it seems ready to bring the Neo 10 version to the country soon. iQOO Neo 10 Pro+ is going to debut in China next month, and rumours suggest the iQOO Neo 10 model for India could be the same variant. Going by the leaks, the Neo 10 could be a flagship-grade device with a large battery that supports 120W charging speed. It is expected to feature a dual rear camera setup and sport an OLED display.
We expect plenty more additions to the market in May 2025 and keep you posted on the new updates.
