Samsung Galaxy S25 series will be launched in less than a year to succeed the recently unveiled S24 series in January this year.
With the ongoing smartphone AI trend, the South Korean tech giant is doubling its efforts for its flagship series. This year’s S24 lineup shipped with Galaxy AI – its suite of AI and Generative AI-powered features. Galaxy AI is powered by Google Cloud, which uses Gemini Pro and Imagen 2 for its cloud-based AI features and Gemini Nano for its on-device AI.
The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 series will now feature even more advanced AI features that will give the company an edge against rival flagship devices. The tech giant plans to launch the S25 lineup with Gemini Nano 2, Google’s next-gen multimodal AI model.
Google is set to announce the new model in October this year as they launch the Pixel 9 series and subsequently make Gemini Nano 2 available for the Samsung Galaxy S25 series. It’s worth noting that Gemini 1.0 debuted in December 2023 and Google followed up with Gemini 1.5 in February this year.
Samsung is also optimizing its in-house chipsets to efficiently handle on-device and cloud AI processing. The company launched the S24 and the S24+ which are powered by Exynos 2400 and the upcoming S25 and S25 Plus will ship with Exynos 2400 processor.
Galaxy AI comes with features like Live Translate (Call Assist) and Interpreter, Chat Assist, Note Assist, Transcript Assist, Generative Edit and Suggestions(AI-focused editing tricks), AI-powered camera features like SuperHDR, upgraded Nightography, Instant Slow-Mo and Video Stabilization – all accessible by Instagram and Snapchat in-app cameras, AI Wallpapers(with a Galaxy AI icon watermark), and Circle to Search.
Samsung is rolling out the Google Circle to Search feature and a few Galaxy AI features to its older flagships later this year such as the S23 FE, the S23 series, the Tab S9 series, the Z Fold5 and the Z Flip 5, the S22 series, the Z Fold4 and the Z Flip 4, Tab S8 series, the Z Fold3 and the Z Flip3, the S21 series.
Google plans to ship the Circle to Search feature to other non-Samsung and non-Pixel devices later this year. You’ll have to wait until October to see this feature on OPPO, OnePlus, Infinix, TECNO, Vivo and other Android smartphone brands.
