Samsung’s Galaxy A56, A36, and One UI 8 Watch get exciting updates
Samsung is bringing cool new features to its Galaxy A56 and A36 smartphones with a May 2025 update. These phones, already running the Android 15-based One UI 7, now let users access Google’s Gemini AI assistant by pressing and holding the side button. This handy feature, first seen on the Galaxy S25 series, makes it easy to get quick help with tasks like managing your calendar or answering questions.
The update also includes the latest security fixes to keep your phone safe. Other Galaxy A models, like the A55, A54, and A35, will get this AI side button feature too, making Samsung’s mid-range phones smarter and more user-friendly.
Meanwhile, leaks about Samsung’s One UI 8 Watch, based on Wear OS 5.1, hint at exciting changes for Galaxy Watches.
A new sound icon will make it easier to tweak audio settings, and Gemini AI might be integrated for smoother voice commands. This update, expected around July 2025 with the Galaxy Watch 8 series, aims to make your smartwatch experience more seamless and fun. While details are still emerging, Samsung seems focused on improving how you interact with your devices, from phones to watches.
Both updates show Samsung’s push to bring AI and better usability to more devices. Whether you’re using a Galaxy A phone or waiting for the next Galaxy Watch, these changes promise to make your tech life simpler and more connected.
