Samsung is set to bring its latest One UI 6.1 update to past-gen devices on March 28 in the U.S., offering users a taste of the Galaxy S24 series experience. The update will include Google’s innovative features such as “Circle to Search,” Live Translate, Chat Assist, and Generative Edit.
Owners of devices like the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy Z Flip 5, Fold 5, and Tab S9 series can expect to see the update become available soon. With Galaxy AI integrated throughout the update, users will have access to on-device functionalities that enhance their overall experience.
The Circle to Search feature allows users to search for information based on items in images on their Android device without needing to switch to a browser. Live Translate offers real-time translations during phone calls, making communication easier for users. Additionally, Chat Assist and Generative Edit features provide utility for messaging and photo editing needs.
The update will be rolled out on devices purchased through carriers like AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and USCC, as well as from retailers like Amazon and Best Buy. While some Galaxy AI features may require an internet connection, they will be free for now. However, Samsung may introduce charges for these features starting in 2026.
Overall, the One UI 6.1 update with Galaxy AI promises to bring advanced functionality and a seamless user experience to past-gen Samsung device owners. Stay tuned for March 28 to start enjoying these new features on your device.
