  • Samsung has confirmed that Galaxy AI features are coming to the Galaxy Watch lineup.
  • The official debut of Galaxy AI will come with “the next Galaxy Watch line-up,” almost certainly meaning the Galaxy Watch 7 series.
  • However, “a limited number of Galaxy Watch users” will be able to beta test the features on current hardware starting in June.

Earlier this year, Samsung went all-in on AI by launching Galaxy AI, a suite of tools powered by both on-device and cloud-based AI systems. Galaxy AI debuted with the Galaxy S24 series of smartphones and has since made its way to many other Samsung phones and tablets. However, one place Galaxy AI hasn’t shown up yet is on Samsung’s wearables. To no one’s surprise, that’s changing very soon.

Today, Samsung has confirmed that Galaxy AI is coming to Galaxy Watch devices via the update to One UI 6 Watch, the Wear OS-based skin that powers recent Galaxy Watches. As usual, One UI 6 Watch should launch with the newest Galaxy Watches, which we expect to be in the Galaxy Watch 7 series. Samsung does confirm that Galaxy AI is coming with One UI 6 Watch, but only says “the next Galaxy Watch line-up” when referring to the hardware. Still, it’s basically guaranteed Samsung is referring to the Galaxy Watch 7 series.
