Samsung Galaxy S25+ teardown video shows a larger vapor chamber

This Samsung Galaxy S25+ teardown video very much looks like a replay – Samsung has not done any significant rework on the phone’s internals. And yet there are a couple of welcome improvements.

The first improvement is the pull pouch that glues the battery in place (this is an evolution of the older pull tabs). PBKreviews, who has taken apart many a smartphone, reports that the new pouch is easier to remove than the one on the S24+.

And with the battery out of the way, we can see the other improvement – the vapor chamber is larger. Samsung says that the S25 Ultra has a 40% larger vapor chamber than its predecessor, but we’re not sure about the exact number for the Plus model. It is clearly larger, though.

For our upcoming review, we will be testing how the S25+ performs under sustained load. But if you have read our Galaxy S25 Ultra review, you’ll know that sustained performance was an issue, even with the larger chamber. Given that the S25+ uses the same Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset as the S25 Ultra, we expect similar results.

Anyway, here is the teardown video. Despite the easier-to-remove battery pull pouch, the Samsung Galaxy S25+ still received a repairability score of 9/10 – the same as the S24+ – due to some minor concerns over the general ease of repair and how easy it is to swap the screen.
