I don’t hide, when I tried Samsung AI Last year I wasn’t too surprised. I found them to work quite interesting, useful in specific circumstances, but very far from the “AI Phone” they wanted to propose. This year, things have changed. And they have done it in the most natural way possible: with slight refinements.
I’m going to tell you why Samsung’s AI in the Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+ and S25 Ultra It is in the sweet spot that it deserves, what makes this generation so special and why now I am convinced that it is a characteristic to use perhaps not on a daily basis, but often.

Do you like Samsung? We have a new media specialized in Samsung and its products with tricks, offers, tutorials and all the news about the brand.
Call recording with transcription. One of the functions most requested by xatakeros has to do precisely with call recording. There are hardly any phones that can record them by default, and you have to resort to third-party apps that don’t always work well.
In the case of the Samsung Galaxy S25, it is not only capable of recording calls but, once made, we will obtain a voice-to-text transcription using artificial intelligence. It works practically perfectly, and it is a function that has pleasantly surprised me.
Gemini as a native assistant. Bixby is still alive in One UI 7, but Gemini takes the spotlight. This is the inevitable replacement for the Google Assistant, and is capable of generating images using prompts, searching for information on the Internet and, ultimately, offering an alternative to GPT.
Samsung continues to partner with Google so that the AI functions that we would see in a Pixel also shine on its devices, and this is something to be appreciated.
A brutal image selector. The new Samsungs go one step beyond “Circle to Search”. We can select any part of the screen, whatever we want, and the AI will analyze what can be done with it. Convert a video clip to GIF, perform generative editing on a photograph, analyze texts…
Any element on our screen can give us play if we give AI a chance, something that can be especially useful when they send us documents, photographs or any multimedia content.
Audio removal. Without a doubt, the feature that has surprised me the most in these Samsungs is the elimination of background noise, wind and music. In the demonstration that I was able to access, the scenario was that of a person playing the piano in the middle of the street.
The AI was perfectly capable of isolating background noise, wind, and amplifying music. Taking into account that most of my daily recordings are made with my mobile phone, having this feature is almost magical.
In short, Samsung has refined what was already working well (image generation, translations, text selections, etc.), and has implemented small touches that are very useful for everyday use. Beyond allowing you to delete elements from images and make translations (on which most of its rivals’ AI functions are based), Samsung’s interpretation
(function() { window._JS_MODULES = window._JS_MODULES || {}; var headElement = document.getElementsByTagName(‘head’)(0); if (_JS_MODULES.instagram) { var instagramScript = document.createElement(‘script’) ; instagramScript.src=”https://platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js”; instagramScript.async = true; instagramScript.defer = true; headElement.appendChild(instagramScript);
