    • Samsung is in talks to integrate Perplexity AI as the default assistant on Galaxy S26 devices, potentially replacing Google’s Gemini.
    • The partnership may include deep integration into Samsung’s ecosystem and a significant investment in Perplexity’s upcoming funding round.

    What happened: Samsung may replace Google Gemini with Perplexity AI on Galaxy S26

    Samsung is reportedly in advanced discussions with U.S. startup Perplexity AI to integrate its AI assistant into upcoming Galaxy devices, potentially starting with the Galaxy S26 series in early 2026. This move could see Perplexity AI replacing Google’s Gemini as the default assistant on Samsung smartphones.

    The proposed partnership includes preloading Perplexity’s app on new devices and integrating its search features into Samsung’s web browser and Bixby assistant. Additionally, the companies have discussed developing an AI-powered operating system and a central app for managing various AI agents.

    Samsung is also expected to invest approximately $500 million in Perplexity’s upcoming funding round, which aims to raise $500 million at a $14 billion valuation.

    Why it’s important:

    This potential shift indicates Samsung’s intent to diversify its AI offerings and reduce reliance on Google’s services. By integrating Perplexity AI, Samsung could offer a more tailored AI experience across its devices. However, the impact on existing collaborations with Google, particularly concerning the Gemini assistant, remains to be seen.
