We have some exciting information to share, especially for Galaxy A phone users hoping to get their hands on some Galaxy AI action. SamMobile learned from sources that Galaxy AI will eventually expand beyond the high-end segment and reach mid-range Galaxy A phones, starting with a couple of 2024 models.

Our sources tell us that Samsung's latest innovation, Galaxy AI, will land on Galaxy A devices for the first time on a couple of models already released in 2024, namely the Galaxy A35 and the Galaxy A55. However, there are a few caveats.

Not the complete Galaxy AI experience

Firstly, we don't have an exact date when Galaxy AI will reach the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55. However, our sources tell us it will happen through the One UI 6.1.1 update, which could land on these mid-range phones this month or the next.

Secondly, not every Galaxy AI feature will be released for the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55. There's no information regarding which AI tools will make the cut and which ones will be missing, but we're guessing Samsung will leave out the ones that require vast amounts of on-device processing power.

At the time of writing, the most affordable Galaxy AI-enabled phone you can buy is the Galaxy S23 FE. Even the Fan Edition phone is missing Instant Slow-Mo, which was one of the AI features Samsung included in the original Galaxy AI suite for the Galaxy S24 series.

More details after the video

Thirdly, we can only confirm Galaxy AI will go live for the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55, but not for older Galaxy A devices, even if there are hardware similarities.

For example, the Galaxy A35 uses the same chip as the Galaxy A54, i.e., the Exynos 1380 SoC, but even so, we can't confirm that Galaxy AI will be released for the Galaxy A54. Samsung may limit its efforts to Galaxy A models released in 2024 and later.

Samsung is betting big on Galaxy AI, and at Unpacked 2024, the company confirmed that it wants to bring these innovative AI tools to more than 200 million Galaxy devices, including phones, tablets, and wearables.
