Samsung Explores AI Partnerships; Mulls Replacing Gemini in S26
Samsung might be switching up the AI it uses in its future Galaxy S26 phones, expected in 2026.
Instead of Google's Gemini AI, they are talking to companies like OpenAI and Perplexity.
Samsung could team up with Perplexity to add its AI to their phones, maybe in the browser or even Bixby.
The company is also deciding what chip to use in the S26.
To top it off, Apple may enter the foldable phone market, which could change things.
Samsung is considering replacing Google's Gemini AI in its Galaxy S26 series.
The company is in talks with OpenAI and Perplexity for potential partnerships.
Samsung is reportedly close to a deal with Perplexity for its integration into the Galaxy ecosystem.
The Galaxy S26's processor choice, Exynos 2600 or Snapdragon 8 Elite 2, is still undecided.
Apple's potential entry into the foldable market in 2026 could add pressure on Samsung.
