The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is in many ways the top Samsung phone you can buy right now, as while it’s not quite the most expensive (the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 costs more) it is among the newest, and it includes the latest tech.

As such, it’s unsurprisingly a very expensive phone, but exactly how much does it cost? And will you have to pay more than you would have for a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra at launch?

Below, we’ll answer those questions, as well as detailing the prices for every configuration of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra in the US, the UK, and Australia.

256GB$1,299.99£1,249AU$2,149
512GB$1,419.99£1,349AU$2,349
1TB$1,659.99£1,549AU$2,749

As you can see in the chart above, the Galaxy S25 Ultra starts at $1,299.99 / £1,249 / AU$2,149, for which you get a model with 256GB of storage.

If you think you’ll need more space, you could instead pay $1,419.99 / £1,349 / AU$2,349 for a 512GB model, or $1,659.99 / £1,549 / AU$2,749 for a 1TB one. In all cases, you’re also getting 12GB of RAM.

The good news is that – while certainly high – these prices are exactly the same as what you’d have paid for the Galaxy S24 Ultra at launch in the US or the UK. The news is even better in Australia, where each storage capacity is actually AU$50 less than the same configuration of the Galaxy S24 Ultra at launch.

The fact that Samsung has kept prices the same – or in Australia’s case reduced them – is slightly surprising, given that the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset that’s used is reportedly a lot more expensive than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 used in the previous model.

Coupled with other upgrades – including a new 50MP ultra-wide camera, a larger screen, a bigger vapor chamber, and the use of tough Gorilla Armor 2 – it wouldn’t have been surprising if the price had increased.

Still, this is undeniably an expensive phone, so you might want to wait for our full Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra review before you decide whether or not to buy it.

That said, if you’re already set on buying it then you could actually save some money by pre-ordering. There are different pre-order offers depending on the country you’re in and the retailer you buy it from, but you can potentially get free storage upgrades, discounts off the phone, extra credit for trade-ins, or free gifts thrown in.
