Your true AI companion: Samsung’s Galaxy S25 masters voice control, live transcripts, and Gemini creation

Imagine a device that gives you access to a powerful artificial intelligence (AI) companion with human-like qualities – one so intelligent that it can enhance how you work, supercharge how you play and redefine how you create.

This device is Samsung’s new Galaxy S25 Series of smartphones, which comes equipped with the latest version of Galaxy AI, an all-new ecosystem that delivers a hyper-intelligent, customised AI experience with a human touch. 

A first in the market, Galaxy AI introduces a multimodal AI agent capable of understanding text, speech, images and videos, delivering a personalised and intuitive experience.

Discover how the Galaxy S25 Series revolutionises smart technology with its AI features, functioning as a virtual companion to elevate your everyday life.

Your day optimised with smart AI

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Series makes everyday tasks smoother than ever, thanks to Samsung’s latest One UI 7 interface that seamlessly integrates smart AI functions across apps. With just a few simple voice commands, users can ask the Galaxy S25 to perform a series of tasks across multiple apps, making the AI an indispensable virtual sidekick that helps you stay on top of work, life and play.

The Galaxy AI’s advanced voice recognition understands user intent and converts voice commands into actions, streamlining tasks and saving time and effort. For instance, you can ask the Galaxy S25 to find the location of your next meeting and send the address to a colleague via text.

The Galaxy S25 Series’ suite of advanced AI features also helps you to stay updated, organised and in control. At the core of this innovation is the Personal Data Engine, which intelligently analyses data on the device to deliver a highly personalised user experience.

One of the standout features is Now Brief, which delivers personalised updates throughout the day. By gathering insights across multiple apps, Now Brief compiles a concise yet comprehensive briefing that includes your health metrics, travel plans, daily schedule and digital well-being. Receiving these briefs can be customised to a morning overview, a midday update or an evening summary.

For instant access to your favourite apps, Now Bar puts everything at your fingertips. This new feature lets users easily start and control tasks such as tracking a workout, translating conversations, or starting an audio recording by interacting with the Now Bar on the lock screen, giving users instant control of the app as it is running without needing to unlock the device.

Together, Now Brief and Now Bar are perfect for today’s professionals and students, helping users make the most of their busy daily schedules while giving them complete control and quick access to their most frequently used apps.

Busy executives will also find managing conversations easier than ever with Call Transcript, which automatically records and transcribes calls into searchable text message-style interface for easy reading. You can even ask Galaxy AI to summarise the entire conversation.

Enhancing the Galaxy S25’s intelligence further is its integration with Gemini Live, the AI chatbot and assistant developed by Google. By long-pressing the side button on the phone, users can interact with Gemini Live to brainstorm ideas or plan projects. 

Capture perfect memories

At the forefront of the Galaxy 25 Series’ powerful camera hardware and innovative AI features is the Galaxy S25 Ultra, featuring a new 50MP ultrawide camera sensor that can capture images with brilliant clarity and vibrance.

The enhanced Portrait Studio lets users create their own filters for even more outstanding images. Gemini’s photo editing features, such as edit suggestions and generative edits, are also on hand to make good pictures look even better.

With 10-bit HDR recording, the video capabilities of the Galaxy S25 Series are also enhanced. Low-light video capture is improved, with the phone’s AI capable of analysing movement in the picture while the enhanced camera sensor removes unwanted image noise. The Audio Eraser function is also new to the Galaxy S25 series, letting users isolate and remove unwanted audio and noise from a video.

These features make the Galaxy S25 Series the perfect device for both work and entertainment. Audio Eraser is a great tool for capturing videos at conferences and meetings, while the enhanced Nightography features mean you can capture great images in dark environments, such as at concerts or while on a sunset hike.

Durable, aesthetic design

Beyond its intelligent features, the Galaxy S25 Series boasts a sleek and durable design. Samsung’s latest smartphone is available in three models: the Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra.

The Galaxy S25 Series features a 6.2-inch screen at just 7.2mm thick and weighs only 162g, while the Galaxy S25+ offers a larger 6.7-inch display and weighs 190g. The powerhouse Galaxy S25 Ultra comes with a 6.9-inch screen, measures 8.2mm thick, weighs 218g, and includes a built-in S Pen. It is the slimmest and lightest flagship phone in the Galaxy Series to date.

The Galaxy S25 Ultra features a premium titanium frame, while the Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 are built with Armor Aluminium. Together, the Galaxy S25 Series offers excellent durability while maintaining a refined aesthetic. A rounded-edge design ensures a comfortable grip, making the devices effortless to hold and use throughout the day.

Since launching its first AI-powered phone in 2024, Samsung has remained at the forefront of innovation, continuously enhancing how users can tap into the benefits of AI in their everyday lives.

With the Galaxy S25 Series, Samsung takes this further, combining its most advanced AI ecosystem with powerful hardware and a sleek, durable design – making it the ultimate AI companion that fits right in your pocket.
