One UI 6.1 with Galaxy AI: New Smart Features Coming to Your 2021 and 2022 Galaxy Phones
Samsung initially introduced Galaxy AI exclusively for the Galaxy S24 series, then expanded it to 2023’s Galaxy flagship devices, and is now setting up to release it for 2022’s as well as 2021’s flagship lineups.
Samsung has already teased the Galaxy S22 owners that ongoing testing is going on to deliver Galaxy AI features, and now recent reports are unveiling that not only the S22 series but also the entire 2022 and 2021 flagship lineups are in line to get the Galaxy AI features.
This is being speculated by a forum post from Korea. A Samsung employee has confirmed that One UI 6.1 with Galaxy AI features will be coming to Samsung’s entire 2022 and even 2021 flagship lineups. Samsung had already announced earlier this week that more devices would receive Galaxy AI. 2023 Galaxy flagships have already grabbed the AI features, but noticeably, the Galaxy S23 FE is not eligible for the Instant Slow-Mo feature.

Samsung is also expanding the Galaxy AI to selected devices in 2021, although these devices would only support a few features such as Circle to Search and Magic Rewrite, which is expected to be a messy translation of Generative Edit.
Here’s the eligible device list for the Galaxy AI in 2021:
- Galaxy S21
- Galaxy S21+
- Galaxy S21 Ultra
- Galaxy Z Fold 3
- Galaxy Z Flip 3
The exact timeline is not clear yet, but it is expected that the Galaxy AI features, along with the One UI 6.1 update, could arrive in early May.
Samsung has a large number of Galaxy devices that are eligible to get the One UI 6.1 update, and to fulfill the update requirement, the company is constantly adding new devices to the list day by day. Today, a new Galaxy A series member, the Galaxy A73, has grabbed the update.
Notably, the One UI 6.1 update for the Galaxy A73 was spotted in Malaysia with the firmware version number A736BXXU7EXDC. The latest update for the Galaxy A73 doesn’t bring a new security patch as of May 2024. The update brought a lot of new features, so it comes with a massive software package of 2.6 GB.
For the Galaxy A73 device, Samsung hasn’t brought any Galaxy AI feature, but the latest update will surely bring some significant changes that will improve the overall device experience.
In a nutshell, the update has brought new enhancements for the gallery, bringing new features under the connect and sharing functionalities and many more customization options under the different functions.
If you are using the Galaxy A73 5G device in Malaysia, you can now update the device to the latest version by simply going to the software update menu through the system settings. But if you don’t find the update on your device yet, then you have to wait for some time until it is fully distributed to all units.
