According to rumours, the devices will house new flatter displays, four-camera array and titanium frame.
One AI feature being talked about is the Google-powered 'Circle to Search’.

According to the company, the next evolution of Galaxy is on its way.
Ahead of the upcoming event, Samsung released a teaser video, “Galaxy AI is coming.”
This video, shared through Samsung’s YouTube channel, depicts the company’s history of mobile innovation. From Samsung’s first mobile phone, SH-100, in 1988 and the world’s first TV phone in 1999 to the game-changing foldable smartphone in 2020, viewers can witness the journey that shaped the smartphone market.
The video ends with an elderly couple and a young woman discussing the future of smartphones on a subway, setting the stage for the release of Galaxy AI.
