Galaxy AI could stay free forever according to new rumor – Phandroid

Samsung might be rethinking its AI business model. According to a new rumor, Galaxy AI could stay free forever, easing users’ concerns about whether they’d eventually need to pay for the company’s growing suite of smart features.

When Samsung first introduced Galaxy AI, it said the features would be free through the end of 2025. But it never clarified what would happen after that, or how much a subscription might cost. Understandably, that left some users wondering if their favorite tools would eventually end up behind a paywall.

The Galaxy AI suite includes features like real-time translation, advanced photo editing, and smarter messaging tools. These are genuinely helpful additions that many users have come to rely on. Asking people to pay for them later could create friction, especially if the price wasn’t clear upfront.

Now, a post from tipster PandaFlash Pro on X suggests that Galaxy AI might remain free forever. If true, it would be a major win for users and could set a precedent as AI becomes more deeply integrated into everyday phone use.

It’s worth noting that this only refers to Samsung’s own Galaxy AI tools. Some features are powered by Google, and anything tied to Gemini Advanced would likely still require a separate subscription through Google. In other words, just because Galaxy AI is free doesn’t mean every AI feature on the phone will be.

Samsung hasn’t confirmed anything yet, so for now, it’s still just a rumor. But if this report holds up, Galaxy users may not have to worry about an unexpected AI subscription charge in the future.
