The launch of the Galaxy S24 series introduced Samsung fans to a host of new features under the Galaxy AI umbrella. After a couple of months enjoying those features to themselves, a number of other Samsung devices are getting the Galaxy AI treatment.
The One UI 6.1 update is rolling out now on devices from AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, USCC, and more.
Which Samsung devices are getting the Galaxy AI update?

What are the new Galaxy AI features?
Galaxy AI includes a wide variety of new features, but the big highlights include Circle to Search with Google. This feature is exactly as it sounds, you can just circle an item on screen to automatically search Google for it.
Live Translate blew us away at the Galaxy S24 launch, you can watch the demo below. This gives you real-time translation including live captions during a call. The individual on the other end doesn't need to have a Samsung phone or anything else installed, so if you're armed with your trusty Samsung phone, say goodbye to language barriers.

Chat Assist is another helpful addition for those of us that have a tough time with messaging. Galaxy AI can help you craft the perfect message by offering translation, distinct writing styles and tones, along with spelling and grammar fixes.
