Samsung Galaxy S25 upgrades on-device AI with Snapdragon 8 Elite [Benefits]
Samsung Galaxy S25 series gets upgraded on-device AI with Snapdragon 8 Elite. New findings suggest that the next-gen Galaxy phones will cut dependency on cloud AI to process even more tasks locally (on-device).
As spotted by AssembleDebug, Snapdragon 8 Elite’s performance and efficiency gains foster on-device AI. The S25 series will offer speed and privacy, help streamline tools, and increase the potential for novel app functionality.
The key benefit of the Samsung Galaxy S25 family’s upgraded on-device AI includes the processing of generative AI photo editing with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. It will not only reduce process duration but also produce more relevant results.
Additionally, the source found a set of new features that will be introduced with the Galaxy S25 series. The findings come from the vast array of Samsung apps as well as confirming the Snapdragon 8 Elite exclusivity.

- FEATURE_INOUT_PAINTING
- FEATURE_GEN_EDIT_ON_DEVICE
The findings also include inpainting (blending edits into an image) and outpainting (expanding an image outside its original bounds). Edits that require cloud processing would be done on-device, ending the requirement of cloud upload.

More on-device AI features. Absence of any other (except the mentioned one) Exynos/Mediatek chipset in the list also confirm the rumour that the Galaxy S25 series will come with Snapdragon chips only.#Samsung pic.twitter.com/NaZfevr9QM

Galaxy AI’s Note Assist and Generative Edit features rely on cloud processing. The lack of on-device AI support results in slower processing and lags that you may have faced even after having a stable internet connection.
On-device AI ensures all the tasks and processing are done locally. It doesn’t require your device to stay connected to the network. In addition, on-device is comparatively faster and more secure as compared to cloud AI processing.
Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy S25 series on January 22 in the US.
