Samsung launches Galaxy S25 smartphones with an emphasis on AI – Shacknews

Samsung has revealed the Galaxy S25 series, the latest versions of its signature smartphone device. This year’s line-up once again focuses on artificial Intelligence, bringing the second iteration of Galaxy AI. Samsung boasts improved search, health, and management features as some of the S25’s highlights.

Samsung’s new smartphones were showcased today and are available in three models: S25 ($799), S25+ ($999), and S25 Ultra ($1,299). As Samsung continues to battle with Apple in the AI race, the manufacturer put a large emphasis on AI features in this year’s devices. The S25’s AI companion can debrief users on daily news and weather, search for nearby restaurants, and track their fitness goals.

In addition to the personal companion, Samsung has used AI to power new video editing functions. Audio Eraser serves a similar purpose as Magic Eraser in the Photos app, removing background audio from recordings. The Auto Trim feature uses AI to detect and isolate the “key moments” in video recordings.

The Galaxy S25 smartphones are available for preorder on Samsung’s website, with shipments expected to begin on February 7.
