The Samsung Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra recently got their approval from the Federal Communications Commission or FCC in the United States. The listing states that there will be no more enhancements in charging speeds however, there is information available about the connectivity features of these devices. All three models in the Galaxy S25 series will be compatible with the latest Wi-Fi 7 standards according to FCC. 

It is worth noticing that the Galaxy S24 was the very first device in the Galaxy lineup of Samsung that was added with Wi-Fi 7 earlier this year. In contrast to this, the standard Galaxy S24, S24+ and S24 FE were only restricted to Wi-Fi 6. This was because of the chip that was used in these devices, the Exynos 2400 chip does not support the latest Wi-Fi standards. 

Wi-Fi 7 offers higher speed as compared to the previous ones and theoretically, it can achieve speeds of up to 46 Gbps whereas the previous ones are capped at 9.6Gbps. Additionally, the Wi-Fi also supports a greater channel width and includes advanced technologies like 4K QAM and multi-link operation (MLO). 

4K QAM is a modulation technique that facilitates quicker data transmission and serves as an enhancement that contributes to the overall speed of Wi-Fi 7. On the other hand, MLO is a strategy for optimizing connections across different frequency bands hence improving both the speed and stability of the Wi-Fi connection. 

According to earlier rumours, it was expected that the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Plus would come with the Exynos 2500 however, recent reports state that the entire lineup will be powered by the Snapdragon Elite 8 chip and these smartphones are anticipated to be available for the users in January 2025 along with a new Galaxy S25 Slim.
