Samsung’s paid Galaxy AI plan leaks for $5/month, but will you pay?
Samsung has long left the idea of paid Galaxy AI features on the table for Galaxy devices, and now there’s finally some evidence that it’s coming and could cost $5/month.
Since the suite was introduced, Samsung has been offering Galaxy AI features for free, with an asterisk. Originally, they were only free through “the end of 2025,” but Samsung kept saying that it had no plans to start charging and, so far, has not made any announcements.
SammyGuru spotted evidence in One UI 9.5 for a new “Galaxy AI Premium” subscription. Based on strings, Samsung would be charging $4.99/month for its Galaxy AI features, though the good news is that existing features remain free.
This includes Now Brief, Browsing assist, Creative Studio, Samsung Keyboard AI features, and more.
Samsung’s Galaxy AI Premium plan would instead focus on adding new features, including:
Samsung would also boost usage limits in this paid plan, with the sign-up screen somewhat implying that usage limits on free features could be a part of this. On top of a monthly subscription, users would also be able to buy “credit packs” that unlock additional usage for a one-time fee.
Pricing for the monthly plan would start at $4.99/month or $47.99/year.
But the big question here is whether or not you’d actually pay for it. With Samsung having offered Galaxy AI features for free for a couple of years now, it’s certainly a major change on the company’s part. What do you think?
