Samsung suggests that the upcoming Galaxy Watch will concentrate on these three aspects.

      Numerous companies conduct quarterly earnings calls, but the most intriguing aspects are often not the statistics disclosed during these sessions. Samsung, in particular, typically provides a few insights about its ongoing projects, and the analyst call following its Q1 2025 earnings report was no exception.

      As reported by Sammobile, Samsung announced in its latest earnings call that it is currently developing an AI-centric Galaxy Tab S11 series, along with a redesigned Galaxy Watch.

      The AI-oriented Galaxy Tab S11 lineup is not unexpected—Samsung annually unveils new flagship tablets, and the Galaxy Tab S10 series from 2024 already incorporates Galaxy AI, similar to the tech giant's latest flagship smartphones. Thus, it’s almost certain that the forthcoming tablet will also emphasize AI. Nevertheless, it’s reassuring to receive official confirmation directly from Samsung.

      What has Samsung indicated regarding the upcoming Galaxy Watch?

      A revamped Galaxy Watch is a bit more thrilling. While Samsung did not specify the nature of the redesign, it did mention “a new Galaxy Watch with an innovative design and enhanced health-related features” during the earnings call, according to analyst Bryan Ma.

      This implies that the upcoming smartwatch—or smartwatches—will not only revamp their appearance but should also include improved health functionalities, likely leveraging AI as many other devices do.

      The Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra were both introduced alongside Samsung’s foldable phones in July 2024, with murmurs already circulating about the Galaxy Watch 8 and Watch 8 Classic after they appeared on a Bluetooth SIG listing.

      At present, little else is known about Samsung’s future smartwatches; however, given that AI plays a role in some features of the current models—including the Energy Score—it’s reasonable to anticipate an expansion in these areas. During an interview with Hon Pak, Samsung’s SVP and Head of Digital Health, I was informed at the time of the Watch 7 launch that we were on “version 1.0” of the Energy Score. He expressed optimism that “there’s a lot more we can do and should do” and that it will “get better and better.”

      With Samsung confirming that the next smartwatches will feature an “innovative design” and “enhanced health-related features,” it appears to be a promising year ahead for the Galaxy Watch.

      The Galaxy S25 may not be the success Samsung had hoped for.

      According to data from Counterpoint Research, Samsung leads Apple in smartphone shipment market share, and while this might seem like positive news, a deeper analysis of their differing strategies suggests Samsung might not be entirely pleased with the situation. In the first quarter of 2025, Samsung commanded 20% of the global smartphone market by device shipments, with Apple close behind at 19%. This data represents “sell in” figures, indicating devices purchased from the manufacturer by distributors. This marks a notable shift from the last three months of 2024, where Apple held a 23% market share compared to Samsung's 16%.

      This context is essential to understand why Samsung may be viewing the latest positive figures with apprehension. By the end of 2024, Apple would have enjoyed a boost from the launch of the iPhone 16 series, while Samsung would have been far removed from the Galaxy S24 series and the releases of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. It makes sense for Apple to capture a larger market share immediately after the launch of its flagship devices for the year.

      Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7: Everything to know

      With summer fast approaching, Samsung’s new Galaxy Z Flip 7 is set to make its debut soon. While the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is an excellent foldable device, it felt somewhat unremarkable, offering mostly minor upgrades over the Z Flip 5, with the notable improvements being mostly internal, like thermal enhancements, or lacking in significance, such as a larger cover screen that didn’t impact functionality meaningfully.

      We are hopeful that Samsung will deliver a better experience with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 this year. Fortunately, many leaks and rumors indicate that the company is on the right track to make a strong impact with its seventh model. Let’s explore what we know so far about Samsung’s flagship flip phone this year.

      Samsung Galaxy S25 owners enjoy unexpected new features in the latest update.

      The April 2025 security update for the Samsung Galaxy S25 series brings more than what was initially anticipated. SamMobile observes that the monthly update not only addresses vulnerabilities and security issues but also reintegrates an old feature while enhancing others.

      In total, the new update for the Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra includes a security patch along with improvements to camera performance, charging, and overall software stability.
