A Samsung presented in early 2024 the first features of Artificial Intelligence for their mobile phones, a set of options that became known as Galaxy AI.
Since then these Artificial Intelligence features are free for Samsung compatible mobile users, but since it has been presented we know that eventually Galaxy AI will have a monthly subscription. It is not yet clear when this transition will take place, but signs have now emerged that reveal some of Samsung's plans.
O samMobile site reveals that Samsung is developing three distinct subscription plans for users of its mobile phones who wish to continue to take advantage of Galaxy AI. There is to know the Starter plan (of 10,000 credits), Plus (of 20,000 credits) and Pro (of 50,000 credits).
It is certain that different Artificial Intelligence features will consume different amounts of credits, but for now it is not clear, for example, how different Artificial Intelligence features consume them.
Samsung does not plan to stop offering Artificial Intelligence features, with users continuing to have free access to some of them. However, it is known that these features – including Browsing Assist, Creative Studio, Memory, Now Brief, Photo Studio, among others – will now rely on limited uses.
O sammyGuru website it also suggests that Samsung is preparing a Galaxy AI Premium subscription, which will have (in the US), a cost of 5 dollars (4.45 euros) per month or 48 dollars (42.70 euros) per year. Of course, these prices can be changed according to the region or as Samsung finishes the plans until the official announcement. The Galaxy AI Premium model has exclusive features.
The publication states that one of them will be called Bixby Action and, for the information available, it seems that Samsung's digital assistant will gain the ability to act as an Artificial Intelligence agent. Allegedly, you can create routines for daily tasks, allowing you to even choose what makes them activated. Another unique feature should be Gen Video, an Artificial Intelligence feature that will allow you to turn photos into videos.
It is still unclear when Samsung plans to unveil these new features for Galaxy AI, but it is estimated that the Galaxy S27 series will be the first generation of mobile phones to receive them. Having said that, it is possible that Samsung will decide to make the presentation in the revelation of Galaxy S27 phones, scheduled for the beginning of 2027.
