At the Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung announced the expansion of Galaxy AI to include 7 new Indian languages and dialects including Bengali, Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, and Urdu. Recently, Samsung announced that Google’s Gemini Live Assistant will be available in Hindi in addition to Korean, and English on the Galaxy S25 series, as the company increases its focus on India.

In India, the Gemini Live-powered Galaxy S25 series allows users to interact naturally with their devices in Hindi. For example, they can search for specific photos in Samsung Gallery, adjust the display font size in Settings, or even control apps like Spotify using simple voice commands in Indian, English, and Korean in a much more natural way.

Currently, Samsung has integrated some of its stock apps – Samsung Calendar, Samsung Notes, Samsung Clock, and Samsung Reminders – into the Gemini, in addition to YouTube, Google Maps, Gmail, and Spotify.

Also, the announcement comes at a time when Apple CEO Tim Cook announced that Apple Intelligence will be available in localized English for Indian users in April 2025.

If you live in India, Samsung has started pre-orders for the Galaxy S25 Ultra series in India. The Galaxy S25 starts at ₹80,999, while the top-end Galaxy S25 Ultra model goes up to ₹1.65 lakh for the 12GB RAM + 1TB storage variant. If you pre-order the Galaxy S25 Ultra, you will get benefits worth ₹21,000 and all models will start shipping from February 4.

On the other hand, Samsung has allowed to activate Gemini or Bixby as the default assistant on the Galaxy S25, depending on the use case/demand.

By default, Gemini can be accessed by long pressing the side button on the Samsung Galaxy S25. Now, long pressing the power button brings up Gemini, Bixby, or the power menu, depending on your settings.

In Korea, Samsung has kicked off the Android 15-based One UI 7 update for the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Tab S10, Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Z Fold5, and Galaxy Z Flip5. The update follows the One UI 7 deployment for Galaxy S24 series and Galaxy Z Fold5, as well as Galaxy Z Flip5 users in the same region, which began earlier.

These users are among the first to experience this update, which promises a smoother, more intuitive experience with a refined user interface, improved performance, enhanced privacy controls, and new customization options that align with Samsung’s vision for a seamless and intuitive user experience.

One UI 7 comes with a brand new look for your Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Tab S10, Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Z Fold5, and Galaxy Z Flip5, including a sleeker user interface, smoother animations for maximum interactions, and an improved flow across the system.

Over the next few days and weeks, the Korean tech giant will open up the One UI 7 distribution to older flagships like the Galaxy S22 and S21 series, Galaxy Z Flip 4/3, and Z Fold 4/3.

To note, the company has started the US rollout for select devices, including the S24 series, Z Fold6, and Z Flip6 from April 10, but the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Tab S10, Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Z Fold5, and Galaxy Z Flip5 and others are still pending. The company’s phased approach prioritises flagships, with mid-range devices like the Galaxy A-series scheduled for June.

Your device should send a notification for a software upgrade. In the meantime, you can manually get the latest software from Samsung’s servers by navigating through Settings > Software update > Download and install.

Samsung users can try out One UI 7 on the Galaxy S22 Plus virtually. The update’s rollout hasn’t yet begun, but the company is moving towards kicking off a public rollout next month. Samsung’s latest RTL refresh brings One UI 7 to the Galaxy S22 series, but users may be disappointed as they miss out on 5 major AI features with One UI 7.

One UI 7 is available on the Galaxy S25 series, Galaxy S24 series, the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Z Flip 6. Notably, the latest flagships exclusively run the Stable One UI 7, last year’s flagships have Beta access to the software, and the Galaxy S22+ is eligible for RTL.

The RTL listing was recently updated as a video spread on Reddit and X that shows One UI 7 running on a Galaxy S22+ using Samsung’s Remote Test Lab.

The video reveals that the update for the S22 series will not include many of the cutting-edge AI features found in Samsung’s latest Galaxy S25 series.

Today, with beta 4 Google expanded Android 16 Beta to select non-Pixel flagship devices from partner brands. Samsung, as always, is skipping the Android 16 Beta Program, while the new OS is available for select devices launched by Honor, iQOO, Lenovo, OnePlus, OPPO, Realme, vivo, and Xiaomi.

Google released Android 16 beta 4 with a second version of platform stability and announced that apps compatible with the new OS will now be available on the Play Store.

Honor, iQOO, Lenovo, OnePlus, Oppo, Realme, Vivo, and Xiaomi have opened beta registration windows for their latest flagship devices launched in the last few months. Samsung, however, is yet to complete One UI 7 for its Galaxy devices, but will soon roll out the stable One UI 7 and launch an independent One UI beta program.

Last week, it was revealed that the company is already working on Android 16’s adaptation and testing the alleged One UI 8 on the Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Z Flip 6 smartphones.

Android continues to deliver great updates and new features throughout the year, while feedback from the beta community plays a vital role in constantly improving Android. The Android 16 developer site has a lot more information about the beta, including downloads and a release timeline for Pixel.
