Samsung and Google are close partners, but the Galaxy S26 might get a surprise AI assistant instead of Gemini.
The next phase of AI will bring us more personal AI assistant experiences than we’ve had before. The writing is already on the wall, and we’re just waiting for the execution. Google has Gemini Live, and we saw a slew of Project Astra features that are in development. Then there’s the smarter Siri experience in Apple Intelligence, which Apple delayed, but it’s coming nonetheless.
Perplexity search features could also be built into Samsung’s browser. Some of these early Perplexity integrations might be announced as soon as the second half of 2025. Samsung will unveil its foldable phones later this year, and Perplexity might become the default AI assistant on Samsung phones starting with the Galaxy S26 series next year. Samsung wouldn’t be the first company to build Perplexity features into its phones. Motorola already did it with some of its devices.
