The Samsung Galaxy S25 comes with a remarkable enhancement. Announced at the Samsung Unpacked 2025 event, the smartphone now brings Google’s AI tool, Gemini, to your fingertips via a dedicated side button.
This keynote announcement succeeds Samsung’s prolonged endeavours with their proprietary smart assistant, Bixby and coincides with the news around Gemini substituting Google Home on Android devices. Nevertheless, the assistant continues its service via other smart home products.
With emphasis laid on generative AI during the event, Samsung aims to stay in line with other tech giants like Apple. Along with Gemini, the Galaxy S25 uses the neural cores of the latest Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, further enhancing its capability.
Similar to recent Siri updates from Apple, Gemini bridges app crossovers through Google apps such as Maps, YouTube, and Messages, as well as Spotify. Samsung’s own apps like Reminder, Calendar, and Clock are also integrated via extensions.
While reshaping Galaxy S25’s user-experience with Gemini, Samsung does not leave Bixby in the cold. The smart assistant’s future lies within Samsung’s appliances and home products, as displayed at the previous CES event.
Experience the intelligent evolution with the Samsung Galaxy S25, now available for pre-order and shipping starting from February 7.
