Samsung could introduce a paid Galaxy AI Premium subscription through a test program tied initially to the Galaxy S27 series, according to SammyGuru. Test participants may be refunded for subscription spending once the trial concludes, although Samsung has not confirmed the program.
The reported service would keep a free Galaxy AI tier, but with usage caps. Users who reach those limits could reportedly buy credit packs, while a Premium “Max” plan would raise limits to four times the free allowance. That distinction could matter most for people who repeatedly use generative or editing features rather than occasional AI tools.
The free tier is said to retain the following features:
- Browsing Assist
- Now Brief
- Creative Studio
- Smart Capture
- Samsung Keyboard
- Photo Assist
- Personal Agent
The paid package is also expected to add three features:
- Gen Video, which would turn photos into AI-generated videos.
- Bixby Action, which would automate tasks across apps.
- Daily Briefing, a separate feature from the existing Now Brief whose role has not yet been detailed.
Code found in the app reportedly lists pricing of $4.99 monthly or $47.99 annually. The annual option would be nearly 20% cheaper than paying month by month for a year. Access may depend on a Samsung account’s region, and the Galaxy S27 series appears to be the proposed starting point rather than a confirmed exclusive launch platform. Samsung has yet to confirm the subscription, its final feature set or a wider device rollout.
