Samsung has an excellent toggle that lets you opt-out of all Galaxy AI features that don't run on-device — Apple and Google should copy that.

It seems slim is the latest thing when it comes to smartphone design. There have been several rumours surrounding an iPhone 17 Air over the last couple of months, Oppo announced the world's thinnest folding phone in its Find N5, and Samsung teased the S25 Edge during the launch of its current flagships.

Whether Galaxy AI remains free for six months or until the end of 2025, Samsung will eventually charge for the service. I’m not comfortable not having clear guidance on what features will be missing from my $1,300 Galaxy S25 Ultra in a few months, and I’m not alone. Samsung has a Galaxy AI problem, and it’s about to become our problem.
