Samsung Galaxy S25 series supports Google Gemini Live in Hindi

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.

Samsung ends software update support for three Galaxy devices

Samsung recently shared its revised software update plan for July 2025. Through this updated plan, Samsung has confirmed that three Galaxy devices, the Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G are no longer eligible for software updates.
Now, Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G have been removed from the Biannual plan in July 2025. It means that Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G devices will no longer receive software updates as they have completed their update cycle.
The Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G were released in 2021. Since then, these three Galaxy devices have received three major Android updates, along with regular security patches. Now, after several years of support, Samsung is officially ending updates for these Galaxy devices.
So, what does this mean for these phone and tablet users? First, don’t worry, because your tablet will still work. Even though the Korean tech giant will no longer send out new Android versions or monthly security updates, your device will still receive Google Play system updates. These updates help keep your Galaxy device secure and let you continue using important apps like banking, social media, and video streaming.
If you want the newest features and latest Android updates, you might want to upgrade to a newer Galaxy phone and tablet. You can check tablets from the Galaxy Tab A10 series, the Tab S9 series, or the Galaxy A56 5G. These new Galaxy devices offer better performance, new features, and longer support.
However, if your current devices are working well and you’re happy with them, there’s no need to upgrade right away. The Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G can still handle basic tasks like browsing the web, watching videos, or using social media.

Samsung brings Galaxy Z Fold 5 to One UI 8 testing spot

Samsung has started testing Android 16-based One UI 8 on the Galaxy Z Fold 5. This big result shows that the Korean tech giant is considering the 2023 foldable, which could also be included in the Open Beta program this year.
After Galaxy S and A series devices, Samsung’s Android 16 optimization for Galaxy devices is in full swing, with foldable models not being added to the testing zone.
A reliable tipster, @Tarunvats has spotted a new One UI 8 build for the Galaxy Z Fold 5 on the testing platform. The testing build, F946BXXU5FYG2, hints that Samsung is actively working on One UI 8 for the Galaxy Z Fold 5.

Notably, last month, a carrier-locked variant (SM-F946U) of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 for the US was spotted on Geekbench running Samsung’s Android 16-based One UI 8.0.
The One UI 8 update will bring meaningful changes to the UI. The company is also working on redesigning apps and core functionality to further improve the appearance and foundation laid by the Android 15-based One UI 7 update.
