Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 are the first phones to ship out of the box loaded with Android 16. Similarly, the company's new Watch 8 Series will be the first to launch already running Google's Wear OS 6. That means Watch 8 is the first wearable to have Google's Gemini LLM ready to go the moment you switch it on, allowing you to ask the AI questions straight from your wrist.
Google and Samsung are also upgrading Gemini Live so that it can be accessed on the external screen of the Z Flip 7. And thanks to updates rolling out to Gemini in general, you'll be able to use your camera and ask it about what you're seeing in real time while your Flip 7 is in Flex Mode. Gemini Live's new camera sharing feature will also be accessible from the Flip 7's external screen, so you can point the phone's camera at something and get answers from the AI without having to open your phone. Take note that Gemini Live now supports more Samsung apps, including Samsung Calendar, Notes and Reminders.
The new foldables are getting Google's new Circle to Search updates, as well, including AI Mode. When you long press the home screen or the navigation bar on Samsung's new phones and circle something on screen, you'll get AI responses and will be able to ask follow-up questions. Circle to Search is also getting a feature called gaming help, which can help you with gaming questions while playing on mobile. You can encircle a character in the game to identify it, for instance, or get tips and strategies when you're stuck.
Of course, Google's Gemini upgrades are coming to other devices, as well. Google has announced that Gemini on Wear OS is rolling out to all Pixel Watch users, and if you have a Pixel phone, you're getting access to Google's Veo 3 video generator. You'll even get a full year of the company's AI Pro subscription at no cost, as long as you have a Pixel 9 Pro. Finally, the new Circle to Search capabilities are also coming to Pixel phones.
