Samsung is testing a $4.99 subscription for access to exclusive AI features on some Galaxy phones, PCMag reports, citing a trial spotted by SammyGuru. The test could mark a shift from Samsung’s earlier promise that Galaxy AI features would remain complimentary through 2025.
Why it mattersThe report does not specify which features are included or how many users are being asked to pay. For now, this is a test, not a confirmed change to Galaxy AI’s pricing. Still, the era of “free” phone AI may be getting a small-print subscription of its own.
Discuss: If useful AI features move behind a monthly fee, should phone makers include them in the device price or charge separately?
