- A new rumor suggests that an UI 8 could add a narration function to the characteristic of the Samsung Galaxy S25 ‘series
- Tentatively titled Listening Brief, the function applies a text processor to voice to the summary of news and updates generated by AI
- A UI 8 does not have a release date at the time of writing.
Without a doubt, one of Samsung’s best features to launch this year now is brief, the daily summary that works with AI found in the nucleus of the platform focused on the Galaxy S25 Series AI.
As Sammyguru reports, the now brief feature seems to be exclusive to the Galaxy S25 series for now: the widest launch of One UI 7 has not taken the function to older devices
That is probably due to its dependence on the Knox safety chip, which was introduced with Samsung’s last flagships; But while the oldest devices can be lost now, it seems that Galaxy S25 users could see the fairly updated function with the next version of a user interface.
A new rumor suggests that an UI 8 could bring a new feature called Listen Brief, which is more or less what it seems: an audio version of the Brief Now. The characteristic was discovered in a look at the unpublished code of Android Authority.
Now brief is already a fairly convenient concept, undulating news, updates, climate and more in a rapid digestible food.
But for those who want an additional photo of convenience, listening to Brief will make to obtain their daily dose of personalized information is even easier.
The findings suggest that you can choose between the voice processing of Samsung and Google, which means that this is probably a narrative of the now existing text, instead of a reading, processing of AI and then explain the content of the summary.
Speaking personally, I have not been the most beloved of AI: I have my problems with the generative side of things, and when it comes to things that save time such as transcription and email summaries, I have rarely used the tools that are offered, but even impressed me brief when it was revealed in the first Samsung galaxy this year.
As for listening to Brief, I can see that this is useful for some types of people, first of all, with visual disabilities or problem processing problems. I will always welcome the characteristics that make technology more accessible to more people.
Listening Brief could also be a useful addition to travelers, parents with occupied mornings or those who prefer to listen to reading. It is a good potential addition to what was already a great idea.
We are still very far from an UI 8, but I hope that the best Samsung phones receive their next important update of the operating system faster than the staggering deployment of an UI 7. I will know if I would use to hear a summary in the comments below.
