Samsung is planning to bring more AI options to its upcoming Galaxy phones. Right now, the company uses Google’s Gemini AI on devices like the Galaxy S25 and Z Fold devices, but that might change soon. According to a new report from Bloomberg, Samsung is talking to other AI companies — including OpenAI and Perplexity AI — about working together on future phones.reported back in June, the company has been exploring ways to rely less on Google. That includes looking at outside partners like Perplexity AI, a company that blends AI chat answers with real-time web results. Samsung is reportedly close to investing in Perplexity, which could lead to deeper integration in upcoming Galaxy models.

Galaxy S26 may feature either Qualcomm’s next Snapdragon processor or the company’s own Exynos 2600 chip. Samsung often uses both, depending on region and model. For example, its flagships might use only Snapdragon chips, while other models used a mix of the two.
