Samsung is doubling down on its AI ambitions. At its Galaxy Unpacked event on July 9, the company announced plans to bring Galaxy AI to 400 million devices by the end of the year—double the number from 2024. The goal? A more intelligent, seamless experience across phones, tablets, wearables, foldables, and even XR headsets.
Speaking at a press conference after the event, Samsung MX President TM Roh confirmed the expanded rollout, citing strong adoption of Galaxy AI since its debut on the Galaxy S24 series in January 2024, according to ETNews. Since then, the AI suite has reached the Galaxy Z Fold6, Z Flip6, S24 FE, Tab S10 series, and more recently, the S25 lineup and Z Fold7/Flip7 family.
The Galaxy Tab S11 and S25 FE, both expected later this year, will continue the expansion. Even mid-range phones like the Galaxy A35, A36, A55, and A56 are getting “Awesome Intelligence”—a trimmed-down version of Galaxy AI that still brings handy features like real-time translation.
Another noteworthy detail from the announcement is that Samsung’s tri-fold phone—the Galaxy G Fold—and its upcoming XR devices are now confirmed for launch by the end of the year, both enriched with Galaxy AI capabilities. Samsung also reaffirmed its commitment to keeping all AI features free through the end of 2025. However, this likely means that some advanced tools could be paywalled after that, potentially starting with the Galaxy S26 series.
Running on One UI 8 and Android 16, the latest version of Galaxy AI includes tools like Selfie Studio, Interpreter Mode, and smart multitasking — all designed to make daily tasks easier and more intuitive.
Samsung’s push to reach 400 million AI-powered devices by year’s end reflects a major shift in how it envisions the future of mobile tech. Whether you’re picking up a foldable, a tablet, or even a wearable, chances are Galaxy AI will be right there with you.
