Samsung is expanding its AI capabilities to mid-range smartphones. The company is bringing Gemini, Google’s powerful AI assistant, to several Galaxy A series models.
To access Gemini, users will simply press and hold the side button on their device. This feature was previously exclusive to Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S series.
The integration will enable users to perform complex tasks with voice commands. For example, they can ask Gemini to check their calendar and suggest birthday gift ideas or search for restaurants on Google Maps and share the location via Messages.

Samsung will roll out the Gemini update to the following Galaxy A models:
- Galaxy A56 5G

Samsung and Google Collaboration
