Updated – Samsung initially confirmed the list of devices for expanding its Galaxy AI features, including the Galaxy S23 FE, but left out the Galaxy S22 series. After that, the controversy heated up over the fact that, despite having the same processor, the Galaxy S22 series is not eligible to get Galaxy AI features. Now, finally, in the second batch of the Android 14-based One UI 6.1 rollout, Samsung has delivered the Galaxy AI feature to the Galaxy S22 series.
Along with the Galaxy S22 series, a few other flagships, including the Galaxy S21, Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4, and Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3, also received the One UI 6.1 update, but these devices are only eligible for the Circle to Search with Google feature, whereas the Galaxy S22 receives all the Galaxy AI features the same as the Galaxy S23 FE.

The wait is over here! Samsung is rolling out the Android 14-based One UI 6.1 update to more high-end Galaxy smartphones and foldable phones.
Initially, the Korean giant introduced the One UI 6.1 on the Galaxy S24 series out of the box and later expanded it to a few flagship devices, including the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S23 FE, the fifth generation of the Galaxy foldable, and the Galaxy Tab S9 series. After that, the brand promised to provide an update soon for the 2022 flagship Galaxy devices.
The Android 14-based One UI 6.1 update is quite awaited since it brought a mesmerizing novelty called ‘Galaxy AI’, a power package of generative AI features, including chat assistants, generative wallpapers, note assistants, photo editing, live translation calls, and more.
Samsung debuted Galaxy AI features exclusive to the Galaxy S24, but then, as per the convenience and expectations of flagship device owners, the brand expanded the availability of generative AI features, except for a few features such as instant slow-mo. Since this requires a high-end processor, all the devices are not eligible to handle these features flawlessly.
Now that the brand has added some more devices to the One UI 6.1 update list, here’s the list. Check whether your device is on the list or not
Galaxy S series
Galaxy Foldable & Tablet
- Galaxy Z Fold5
- Galaxy Z Flip 5
- Galaxy Z Fold4
- Galaxy Z Flip 4
- Galaxy Z Fold3
- Galaxy Z Flip 3

Except for the Galaxy S21, the rest of the devices mentioned in the list get the Galaxy AI features, whereas the Galaxy S21 only gets the Circle to Search feature.
