Samsung Electronics has announced that it will be availing its popular innovative Galaxy AI features to more mobile devices under the Galaxy lineup through a new One UI 6.1 update.

Those using a wide range of devices, including the Galaxy S22 and S23 Series, Z Fold 4 and Z Fold 5, Z Flip 4 and Z Flip 5, as well as Tab S9 and S8 Series will access the latest update.
