At the Samsung Unpacked 2025 event, Samsung unveiled a significant update for the Galaxy S25 line, allowing users to access Google Gemini directly through the side button. This change comes as Samsung shifts focus from its Bixby assistant, which struggled to gain popularity. Gemini is set to replace Google Home on Android devices, enhancing cross-app functionality with Google services. The Galaxy S25, powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, is available for preorder and will start shipping on February 7, 2025. Samsung reaffirmed its commitment to Bixby for smart home products.
