Galaxy AI features on 44+ devices with One UI 8.5

What the One UI 8.5 Galaxy AI rollout is about

The One UI 8.5 update is Samsung’s latest major software release that expands Galaxy AI features, including smarter notifications and document summaries, to 44 confirmed devices and several additional budget models. It combines usability upgrades with security improvements while bringing high-end AI tools from newer flagships to older phones and tablets. For users, the update means AI-driven tools like Priority Notifications and Files Summaries are no longer limited to the newest Galaxy S series, as more foldables, tablets, and A-series phones now qualify. According to Gizmochina, Samsung has finished pushing One UI 8.5 to all devices it previously confirmed via Samsung Newsroom posts, and the company is still adding more models outside the original list. The rollout is happening in stages, so users may need to wait a few days before the update appears on their devices’ Software update screen.

Priority Notifications and Files Summaries arrive on Galaxy Z Fold 7

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is the latest premium device to gain key Galaxy AI features that debuted on the Galaxy S26 line. With the June One UI 8.5 build, Fold 7 owners receive both Priority Notifications and Files Summaries, bringing them closer in experience to the newest S-series flagships. Priority Notifications uses AI to scan incoming alerts and push the most important ones to the top of your notification shade, reducing the chance of missing critical messages in busy apps. Files Summaries focuses on documents stored on the device, generating concise summaries for PDFs, text files, and other supported formats so you can decide what matters without reading every page. Android Authority notes that this Fold 7 update also includes the June security patch, aligning feature expansion with improved security in a single download.

Complete Galaxy device list and expanding compatibility

Samsung’s official list of One UI 8.5 devices spans 44 models across flagship, foldable, tablet, and mid-range lines, greatly widening Samsung device compatibility for Galaxy AI features. The confirmed phones include the Galaxy S25, S24, and S23 families, plus the S25 Edge and FE variants. On the foldable side, the Galaxy Z TriFold, Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE, as well as the Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6, and even older Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 are covered. Tablets range from the Galaxy Tab S11 and S10 series to the Tab S9 and Tab S9 FE lines. The A-series list includes the Galaxy A56, A55, A54, A36, A35, A34, A26, A25, A17, A16, and A15. This wide coverage ensures that Galaxy AI features are no longer reserved for cutting-edge hardware alone.

Budget and mid-range Galaxy phones also get One UI 8.5

Beyond the 44 confirmed models, Samsung is extending the One UI 8.5 update to a cluster of mid-range and budget phones, expanding access to Galaxy AI features even further. According to Gizmochina, Samsung has released the update for devices like the Galaxy A06, M56, M55, M55s, M16, M06, F56, F55, F54, F06, and the Galaxy XCover 7 Pro. While Samsung has not detailed which exact Galaxy AI features each of these models receives, the shared firmware base means they benefit from the same generation of interface refinements and security updates. Gizmochina notes that “it’s very likely that Samsung will release the update for a few more Galaxy devices before wrapping up the rollout,” suggesting this list may continue to grow as testing completes on additional models.

Rollout status, June security patch, and what comes next

The One UI 8.5 rollout bundles feature upgrades and security fixes, with the June security patch arriving alongside Galaxy AI feature expansion on devices like the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Samsung is releasing the update in batches, so availability depends on device model and region, and it may take several days before it appears under Settings > Software update. Some users have reported issues such as video call glitches and random bugs around the One UI 8.5 release, so installing updates promptly and watching for follow-up patches is wise. While this rollout continues, Samsung is already preparing One UI 9.0 based on Android 17, with a beta program live for the Galaxy S26 series and a stable release expected later in the year. For now, One UI 8.5 remains the key gateway to Galaxy AI features for current Galaxy owners.
