TL;DR

  • Leaked One UI 9 firmware reveals a new “Ask AI” feature for the Samsung Internet browser.
  • The tool will allow users to ask questions about webpages and other topics with support for follow-up queries.
  • Samsung may use browsing history and past activity to provide more personalized AI results.

While One UI 8.5 is still in beta and expected to launch later this month alongside the Galaxy S26 series, test firmware for One UI 9 has already leaked. This gives us a rare opportunity to take a peek at what Samsung is cooking with a mid-cycle software update, expected to launch alongside its foldables in the middle of the year. The One UI 9 firmware has already confirmed Samsung’s Galaxy Wide Fold, and now we’ve spotted a new “Ask AI” feature coming to the Samsung Internet app with this upcoming release.
