Samsung unveiled its new Samsung Galaxy S25 series of phones at its Unpacked event in San Jose, California. As expected, the phone company put new AI features center stage, highlighting the handful of hardware improvements over last year's handsets almost as an afterthought.

Samsung has revealed that it will be bringing Google’s Gemini AI assistant to Galaxy A smartphones. While I generally quite like the Samsung Galaxy A56, one of my own pet peeves with the phone is that a long press of the side button (used for the power/wake function) brings up Samsung’s unloved Bixby assistant.

Samsung's Best Face photo-editing is nearly identical to the Pixel's Best Take. It debuted with the Galaxy S25 series earlier this year, but if you've updated a Galaxy S23 or later to the One UI 7 software from Samsung, Best Face should be available to you as well. Best Face is also one of the AI tools available on the midrange Galaxy A56.
