Samsung News app gets fun upgrade with The Six trivia game in the US
Samsung News app is getting upgraded with the arrival of a popular trivia game, The Six. As part of growing the Samsung News platform, the company is bringing a fun upgrade that will elevate your feed to a whole new level.
The Six is now available to play on the Samsung News app in North America and Canada. The company is raising this new format by expanding its interactive gaming experience from Smart TVs directly to Galaxy devices.
Notably, The Fix was launched earlier this year exclusively on Samsung Smart TVs. The Six is available to play on the Samsung News platform, with more ways to play coming soon.
The Six offers daily trivia challenges where players compete by answering six questions on topics ranging from entertainment to world history, with faster correct answers earning higher scores.
With the introduction of The Six game, Samsung News continues to improve and meet audiences’ appetite for trending, breaking, and local news and engaging interactive experiences.
“Samsung’s commitment to broadening access to all types of gaming content and providing more ways for people to play continues to make our devices a top choice for players,” said Avner Ronen, Vice President of Product Development at Samsung. “As a fan-favorite game, we’ve seen the popularity of The Six on our Smart TVs and are excited to bring this engaging experience to millions of mobile devices.”
Samsung News App
Last April, Samsung launched the new Samsung News app. Replacing the Samsung Free, Samsung News app is available as a Google Discover alternative on your Galaxy phone’s minus-1 screen.
Following the launch, the Samsung News app is gradually becoming an essential destination for millions of Galaxy owners, delivering timely, curated news right to their fingertips.
With personalized morning and evening briefings, as well as custom feeds based on interests, it offers a convenient and accessible way to stay informed and engaged.

LIVE DEMO: Samsung, Google and Qualcomm’s Apple Vision Pro Killer Is Here
Samsung yesterday unveiled Project Moohan (Galaxy XR headset). Google also introduced the Android XR crafted for next-gen XR devices. We now have an official live demo of Android XR featuring the Samsung Galaxy XR headset.
The official live demo video of Android XR and Samsung Project Moohan (Galaxy XR headset) has been recently posted by an X user and former Google Product Manager named Bilawal Sidhu (via AndroidAuthority).
It showcases two Google representatives demoing an Android XR headset and its capabilities. Samsung will launch the XR device next year, and it’s unclear whether the product used for the demo is a prototype or a final version.
Samsung is set to usher in a new era of spatial computing segment. The first device could be a headset rather than the rumored glasses. It will be a direct competitor to Apple’s Vision Pro, which was released earlier this year.
The headset has an indicator on the interface that shows when Gemini is active in a multimodal conversational experience. The demonstrator also scrolled a webpage with hands, the same experience as a trackpad or a touchscreen.
Android XR features “spatial windows” that allow users to move and resize them in their field of view using hand gestures. Google TV experience also showcased that lets users scroll through titles that appear floating above the real world.
Samsung’s headset could prefer Gemini over Google Assistant, given the demonstrator heard using the “Hey Gemini” hotword. Users will also be able to watch spatial VR videos and take advantage of newly built immersive map experiences.
Samsung and Google announced to further elevate the XR experience. The headset could be introduced in the latter half of the next year. The launch is far while you can enjoy a sneak peek at what’s coming to shelves next year.
First ever live demo of Samsung’s mixed reality headset running Android XR!
Gemini AI built right in, the Google apps you know and love with a very intuitive UX.
Also cool to see Google maps immersive view playing a key role which I cofounded & led product for while at Google! pic.twitter.com/kUHclfxGge
