At the Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung showcased its work with Google to supercharge the new models with Gemini AI and native apps. Now, a new leak suggests that Samsung Galaxy devices could soon get the new ‘Talk Live About This’ feature in the Gemini app.
According to the information, Gemini AI’s ‘Talk Live about this’ feature currency is available on the Google Pixel 9 series. So, we can expect that Samsung Galaxy S25 and S24 series devices could soon get the new ‘Talk Live About This’ feature in the Gemini app. With this feature, you can now talk to Gemini Live about images, files, and YouTube videos.
It is worth mentioning that earlier the conversation was limited to general knowledge, but now you can also talk about the specific content you are watching. For example:

- In Files by Google, it’s “Talk Live about PDF”
- With images, “Talk Live about this” appears
To operate this feature, all you need to do is tap on the floating Gemini overlay above your content. For images, you need to use the ‘Plus’ menu to upload from your gallery or take a new picture. After tapping the (+)Plus button, you will enter the Gemini Live interface, where you can chat about the content. Now, this means you can use the “Talk about it live” feature on the Pixel 9 series.
Notable, 9to5Google reported the (Gemini) “Talk Live about this” feature on our Pixel 9 devices running Google app 16.3.32, which is currently in beta and could soon released in the coming weeks or months.
