Samsung reportedly testing Galaxy AI Premium and DeX upgrades in One UI 9.5

One UI 9.5, expected to land with the Galaxy S27 series in early 2027, is already in active internal testing. Recent finds from early builds and app strings (spotted by SammyGuru) highlight two notable changes.

First up, the basic Galaxy AI tools that helped popularize the suite, including Photo Assist, Browsing Assist, Now Brief, and similar features, look like they’ll stay free. But the same leaks suggest they may come with usage limits. Once you hit those limits, you might need to buy credit top-ups or move to a higher tier.

There’s also talk of a new Galaxy AI Premium (sometimes referred to as a Max plan) subscription currently being tested. This would unlock extra capabilities and higher usage allowances. Reported premium features include Gen Video (creating AI videos from photos), Bixby Action (automating tasks across apps), and Daily Briefing, along with expanded limits on the existing tools.

Pricing strings found in the software currently show $4.99 per month or $47.99 per year, though these numbers aren’t final and could easily change. Early access testing is also mentioned, with any payments during that phase reportedly refundable. Availability may start with the S27 series.

Separately, DeX is getting some focused refinements, especially around the Samsung Browser. Instead of just stretching the mobile interface, the browser is being prepared with a more authentic desktop layout when used in DeX. Leaks describe a desktop-style sidebar, support for side-by-side webpage viewing, and an integrated Galaxy AI panel with tools like summarize, translate, read highlights, and ask questions. The goal seems to be making the experience feel closer to a native desktop browser when you’re on a larger screen or external display.

The leak offers an early look at how One UI 9.5 could expand both paid AI options and productivity tools for DeX users.
