Samsung is becoming one of the most comprehensive AI integration brands on mobile devices, with the Galaxy AI toolkit that stands out in the smartphone ecosystem. However, not all Galaxy AI features are globally released. In China, users are experiencing some exclusive features that users in the US and other areas do not have – including controversial “social computer” features.
“Social Composer” is a AI tool that allows creating social networking content based on the image of users. This feature is being tested in the One UI 7 version in China and allows users to add automatically captions for photos.
However, according to the page of the page Android Authority This may be one of the AI features that should only be in China. The use of AI to support writing comments or even creating complete posts makes the content become soulless, cliché and reduces the authenticity of social networks – where real people should share true thoughts.
Contrary to the Social Composer, some other features of the Galaxy AI set in China are highly appreciated and worth bringing to the globe. For example, “Samsung Assistant” – a smart assistant integrated with many tools such as “Clipboard Assistant” that helps scan the content to be copied and proposed operations such as fixing, translating, summarizing or opening. This feature is superior to the current standard clipboard table of Android.
Samsung Assistant also has “App Return Assistant” (suggesting the return of applications such as maps, taxis, food delivery), “Feature suggestion assistant” (Suggestions for useful features in the system), “Rewards Assistant” (Update benefits from the reward programs in the App), and “Recording Assistant” (Supporting recording in an application). Except for “Rewards Assistant” which is associated with Chinese domestic applications, the remaining features can be implemented in the global market.
In addition, China also has two other exclusive features, “ask Ai” and “Touch Assistant.” “Ask Ai” acts as a chatbot answering questions based on general knowledge from the Internet, while “Touch Assistant” is like the internal version of the “Circle to search” feature – allowing text processing on the screen to increase reading efficiency.
The fact that Samsung limits some Galaxy AI features in China is understandable, especially in the context of Google services that cannot operate here. However, considering “Samsung Assistant” alone, it is clear that this is a potential feature and can significantly improve the global usage experience.
