Samsung skips Gemini Ultra AI in Galaxy S25 for Gemini Nano v2: Report
Samsung Galaxy S25 series is expected to support Gemini Nano v2 for Generative AI. The company’s first set of AI phones comes with Google’s Gemini Nano AI model. While the Gemini Ultra is also available, the next-gen Galaxy flagships could get Gemini Nano v2.
The latest input reveals that Samsung is again uniting with Google to integrate Gemini Nano v2 (AI model) into the Galaxy S25 series. A report says that the company has recently started a related collaboration with Google for the on-device and generative AI evolution of the Galaxy S25.
A Samsung System LSI executive revealed plans that are under consideration. The company is exploring applying the Speculative Decoding and Early Exit large language model to the next Galaxy. Samsung will also double the software personnel, emphasizing the importance of software.
“We have begun discussions on how to implement Google’s ‘Gemini Nano’ version 2, which will be implemented in a multimodal manner, on-device AI,” said Samsung System LSI’s head of the AP S/W development team. “We plan to have a private meeting at the Google boot camp next week to discuss how to develop generative AI for the next [Galaxy S25 series].”
Samsung will launch the Galaxy S25 series early next year. This year’s Standard and Plus models used Exynos chipset in some markets, while the Ultra solely uses Snapdragon. This dual-chip strategy is expected to be continued with the Galaxy S25 series as well.
Notably, OnePlus and OPPO are working on the adoption of Gemini Ultra on their next flagships. Both companies recently revealed that they are working with Google to become the first to ship Gemini Ultra-powered smartphone to the market later this year.

Samsung is rumored to bring a rectangular Galaxy Watch, Watch 7 Pro or Ultra, and Galaxy Ring later this year. In a recent press release, the company shared a sneak peek at its wearable revolution, indicating new form factors and hardware upgrades.
According to Samsung’s press release, changes in its wearable strategy are likely. Galaxy Ring, which was unveiled earlier this year was mentioned in the release, whereas there were hints about some upgrades that were rumored in the recent past.
Rectangular form factor?
It was rumored that the company will bring back the rectangular design to its Galaxy Watch this year. With the Galaxy Watch 7, Samsung is also rumored to bring a third variant, probably the Pro or Ultra. Hence, a rectangular design with the additional variant might debut.
For its wearable segment, Samsung noted that it will “strive to meet the demand for upgrades through the launch of new premium models.” The additional variant coming this year will likely offer longer battery life, more advanced sensors, and probably a 3nm chipset.
The new 3nm-based Exynos wearable SoC might power the entire Watch 7 lineup. Samsung’s System LSI will focus on “preparing to ship products based on advanced technologies for new wearables”. The 3nm chip may have 50% more power efficiency than the previous generation.
Sensor-related advancement might mean non-invasive Blood Sugar monitoring. The company recently revealed that AI would unlock painless sugar monitoring. The industry expects that the Watch 7 (or at least the most premium variant) will debut this feature.
Samsung may announce the release of the Galaxy Ring at July Unpacked.
