Samsung has announced the Galaxy S25 and for once this year it is not about the new hardware. Not that it's not noteworthy, anything but, it's the One UI 7 software that demands attention this time around. In particular, Galaxy AI steals the show and grabs the spotlight.
Samsung introduced Galaxy AI a year ago, and starting with the S25, it should finally come of age. And that starts early in the day, just after you wake up. Morning Brief updates you on everything the day will bring, from the weather to how busy it is on the way to work.
At the end of the day, there is an Evening Brief to review your day. You are presented with memorable photos you shot and see how many steps you walked. You access Morning and Evening Brief through the Now Bar. This is found at the bottom of the screen and is a stacked list of shortcuts that matter at that moment.

AI is not only used to be more productive. It can also recognize and filter out sound from video, be it voices, wind or traffic noise. Even videos in the dark are made brighter with the magic of AI. Your videos look and sound even better as a result.
AI is also good at recognizing faces. This feature is used to improve selfies. This is reflected in more natural skin tones. Self-portraits look more realistic as a result. All these AI features require a lot of memory and processing power. And that's why Samsung has put 12GB of RAM in the Galaxy S25 as standard; 4 more than last year.
This is also good news for those who don't expect to use Galaxy AI much. Apps will launch faster, and switching between apps will be smoother. Heavy apps like games also benefit here with fewer frame drops. Also helping here is the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor that Samsung employs. This is Qualcomm's most powerful chipset and has been specially adapted for the S25.
