AI Doesn’t Need to Outthink You. It Needs to Understand You - TM Roh, CEO, President, Samsung Electronics




 History repeats a pattern. The breakthroughs that change everything are rarely the most powerful inventions. They are the moments those inventions reach into daily life. Electricity changed society not with power plants, but when a switch appeared in homes. The internet became ours through the browser. The phone became powerful through the ecosystem of apps that grew on top of it. 


AI will be no different. 


AI is getting smarter faster, and this will continue. But to change how people live, it must answer: where, how and into whose hands does this intelligence reach? This will define AI’s next chapter. 

AI no longer merely answers. It is entering an agentic age, taking action on our behalf while the person carries the final decision. But to act for someone, it must first know them. 


That is why it matters where AI meets people. The entry points are where AI understands a person and builds trust. The best AI experiences will come from the devices that know the user best. 


This is what Samsung has spent years building. The phone is closest to us, with us daily. The tablet is where we create and learn. The watch reads signals like sleep and heart rate. The TV and connected home appliances add context from where we live. And new form factors, from foldables to intelligent eyewear, expand where AI meets us. Together, a fuller picture of a person’s needs forms. 


These entry points are powerful together. Signals from across devices become timely assistance: sleep tracked by your watch shapes tomorrow’s schedule, with information always available. AI at its best works quietly in the background, bringing these moments into a cohesive experience. That is why we have spent years building an ecosystem not just to reach, but to connect more moments. 


Samsung does not do this alone. The platforms that changed the world were the most open. The web was. So were mobile operating systems. With SmartThings, we brought devices, services and partners into one connected experience, shaping industry open standards. Openness lets the best ideas reach people faster. And we don’t simply layer intelligence on top, but design how AI works at the center so it serves each person in context. 


But openness alone is not the goal. The harder task is turning intelligence into something personal and trustworthy. The best intelligence in the world should reach people through their everyday devices. But what makes it personal is understanding the user and keeping that understanding safe. That is our responsibility.


As AI becomes more personal and agentic, trust becomes the foundation. People need to know what AI is doing for them and remain in control. 


This is why trust isn’t added at the end. Samsung Knox protects each Galaxy device and now the connections between them. As intelligence moves across devices, protecting what flows between them is crucial. The most personal data stays on the device so people can understand how AI is working, staying in control. 


That same understanding shapes the devices we build. The more personal and capable AI becomes, the more form matters. As AI helps us with more at once, a screen that flexes and folds expands what is possible. This is what makes foldables special: they fold into your hand, opening a larger stage. On this journey, Samsung has continued to make foldables thinner, lighter, stronger and more immersive.


AI is also essential in health. How we sleep, recover and look after ourselves—daily choices add up. A device close to us, like a watch, tracks these signals ensuring a better day. 


The upcoming Galaxy Unpacked is where we will show what’s next in bringing all this together: more personal, natural AI experiences on a foundation more partners can build on. The question that opens the next era is not who has the smartest AI, but who understands people best, and turns that understanding into experiences they can trust. 


We intend to take this path with openness and responsibility, beginning with the device already in your hand. We open this next chapter together at Galaxy Unpacked.

Malaysia's Team Vertice wins #PlayGalaxy Cup 2026 Southeast Asia Qualifiers

 Malaysia's esports scene has achieved another significant milestone as Team Vertice emerged victorious at the Samsung #PlayGalaxy Cup Southeast Asia Regional Qualifiers on 13 June 2026. The Malaysian team of four were crowned regional champions and are slated to compete at the #PlayGalaxy Cup World Finals to be held during Gamescom 2026 in Cologne, Germany.



The #PlayGalaxy Cup is a global tournament league highlighting the gaming performance of Galaxy devices. In 2026, the tournament expands into a yearlong global esports league in collaboration with PUBG Mobile — shifting from standalone events to a full-season format.


Team Vertice showcased exceptional skill, teamwork and consistency throughout the competition, overcoming some of Southeast Asia's strongest PUBG Mobile teams from Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines. Teams were equipped with the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, which is built to deliver 39% more powerful neural processing unit (NPU) and a 19% faster central processing unit (CPU), to keep up with high-action gaming performance.


With their championship victory, Team Vertice will represent Southeast Asia on the global stage at the #PlayGalaxy Cup World Finals. They will also be joined by Team Vonzy from Indonesia, who came in second at the regional qualifiers. Both teams will compete against #PlayGalaxy Cup champions from other regions at Gamescom 2026, one of the largest gaming and interactive entertainment events in the world.


Team Vertice was led by #TeamGalaxy influencer, Muhammad Nur Ihsan bin Ismail, also known as San Gaming in the local esports scene. He credited his teammates Dep, ICAA and Kluq for their trust in him and each other throughout each match.


“We always moved forward to strategize for the next game, even if we made a mistake,” Ihsan said. “I'm super happy right now because I've been dreaming of going to Germany for a long time, and it's an honour to bring the Malaysian flag to the world stage.”


The victory adds another achievement to an impressive year for Ihsan. Earlier in February 2026, San was selected to compete in a global PUBG Mobile open tournament in San Francisco, where he joined a four-player squad comprising of #TeamGalaxy representatives from around the world. The team claimed the championship title, giving San valuable experience competing alongside elite global talent.


“We’re going to study up on our future opponents,” Ihsan added, on Team Vertice’s immediate strategy for the finals at Gamescom. “We’ll be training every day for the finals.”


Team Vertice’s victory underscores the growing influence of Southeast Asian esports and highlights opportunities available to up-and-coming players through platforms such as TeamGalaxy, which continue to nurture talent and connect local gamers with global competitive arenas.


"This is a proud moment not only for Malaysia, but for the growing gaming community across the region," said Matthew Ng, Head of Mobile Experience, Samsung Malaysia Electronics. "As mobile gaming continues to evolve, devices like the Galaxy S26 Ultra are helping unlock new possibilities for competitive play through powerful performance, advanced graphics capabilities and responsive gameplay experiences. We believe technology can be a catalyst for the next generation of esports talent, empowering players to train, compete and connect with the global gaming community wherever they are."


Samsung co-developed a custom application processor (AP) for Galaxy S26 Ultra, featuring a 39% more powerful neural processing unit (NPU) and a 19% faster central processing unit (CPU).


Galaxy S26 Ultra, powered by Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5, delivers enhanced graphics and gaming performance. A redesigned thermal architecture and large vapor chamber improves heat management for sustained performance. Optimized power efficiency extends battery life, while faster charging reduces downtime.

Samsung Strengthens Nation-Building Efforts Through AI-Powered Classrooms for Malaysian Youths

As Malaysia accelerates toward a digital-first future, Samsung Malaysia Electronics is reaffirming its contribution to national development through education by taking the next step with the introduction of AI-Powered Classroom by Samsung programme in collaboration with the Ministry of Education.



Far beyond a standalone technology initiative, the classrooms reflect the company’s broader vision of democratising AI and digital access for all Malaysians, while strengthening the country’s readiness for an increasingly AI-driven future. Through pilot implementations at SMK Nilai Impian in Negeri Sembilan and SMKA Naim Lil Banat in Kelantan that are supported by SNS Network (M) Sdn Bhd, Samsung is transforming traditional classrooms into fully integrated AI-powered learning environments designed to encourage deeper engagement, collaborative learning and digital literacy among students.

 


What makes the AI-Powered Classroom especially meaningful is its truly holistic learning ecosystem. The classrooms are equipped not only with Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ devices for students, but also smartboards for teachers, tablet charging stations, air-conditioning systems and the supporting infrastructure necessary to create a comfortable and connected digital learning environment. The initiative represents a complete end-to-end classroom ecosystem of interconnected technologies rather than simply the provision of devices.


To support daily teaching and learning processes in the classrooms, Sasbadi Holdings Berhad, a leading education solutions provider in Malaysia, was invited by the Ministry of Education to be the Strategic Content Partner for the initiative. Sasbadi deployed its flagship AI-powered digital learning platform, Ace-it, which features comprehensive curriculum-aligned notes, exercises, interactive tools, and an AI-assistant that collectively lessen teachers’ workload and heighten classroom engagement. The Ace-it platform runs seamlessly on the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ tablets and smartboards, creating an intuitive, fully connected ecosystem for both educators and students.


The programme also highlights Samsung’s unique strengths as a technology leader. Beyond hardware innovation, Samsung’s ecosystem enables seamless connectivity across devices and platforms, creating a more flexible and intuitive learning experience for both students and educators. Samsung’s commitment to six years of operating system and security updates also ensures that devices remain secure, relevant and usable for significantly longer periods, helping schools maximise long-term value while reducing concerns around device longevity and maintenance.


This latest initiative builds upon Samsung’s proven track record in supporting Malaysia’s digital education agenda. In 2022, Samsung played a key role in an education initiative by supplying Galaxy Tab A8 LTE devices to eligible university students from the B40 income group.  It is estimated that approximately 350,000 to 400,000 students nationwide would benefit from the initiative.  


 


“As an educator with more than 20 years of teaching experience, I have always believed that science should be hands-on, minds-on and hearts-on. One of the biggest challenges in teaching science is helping students truly visualise complex concepts and systems, something that traditional textbooks alone cannot always achieve. Through the AI-Powered Classroom and the Galaxy Tab, students are now able to experience lessons in a far more interactive and engaging way. More importantly, it has made learning more enjoyable for students by transforming what was once a purely textbook-based experience into something immersive, dynamic and meaningful,” said Farah Faizura Binti Ahmad Rostam, teacher at SMK Nilai Impian.


 


“As an educator with eight years of classroom experience, I’ve seen firsthand how the transition towards digitalisation is reshaping the learning experience in meaningful ways. The Galaxy Tab have been incredibly helpful in designing more engaging questions and delivering interactive lessons that encourage stronger two-way communication in the classroom, making students more involved and responsive during discussions. Having access to a wide range of digital tools also allows us to teach subjects in a more visual, immersive and comprehensive way, helping students better understand complex concepts, while the seamless ecosystem connectivity, especially with the digital whiteboard, creates a smoother and more effective teaching experience overall.” said Selvina A/P Sandiawo, teacher at SMK Nilai Impian

Since being introduced to these two schools, the AI-Powered Classroom has benefitted the education journey of many students, enhancing their understanding of their syllabuses through vital visual learning with the power of AI. 


 


“I enjoy learning science subjects in the AI-Powered Classroom because AI helps make complex topics easier to understand and more engaging during lessons. Using the Galaxy Tab also makes it much easier to follow along in class, while reducing the need to carry heavy textbooks every day. With AI, we are able to explore answers on our own and better understand difficult concepts through personalised explanations that support the way we learn. It has also made note-taking more convenient and efficient, helping us stay more focused during class,” said Nurhani Sumayyah Binti Azmal, Form 3 student at SMK Nilai Impian.

 


“With the Galaxy Tab, lessons have become much more fun, engaging and interactive, making it easier for us to stay focused and understand what we are learning in class. It has also helped reduce the number of heavy textbooks we need to carry every day, making learning more convenient and accessible. The virtual and interactive features on the Tab are especially helpful for subjects like Mathematics and Science, as they allow us to better visualise complex concepts and understand topics that would normally feel difficult or confusing when learning through textbooks alone.” said Avinesh A/L Ramalingam, Form 3 student at SMK Nilai Impian.


“As Malaysia prepares for the future of AI and digital transformation, empowering students with access to technology and digital learning opportunities is essential in building a resilient and competitive nation,” said Charles Kim, President of Samsung Malaysia Electronics. “Samsung has continuously supported Malaysia’s education journey since 2022, from enabling access to devices through PerantiSiswa to now building fully integrated AI-Powered Classroom for students and educators. Through these efforts, we hope to inspire the next generation of Malaysians to learn, create and innovate with confidence.”


By investing consistently in education, infrastructure and long-term digital accessibility, Samsung continues to play an active role in helping shape a more inclusive, future-ready and innovation-driven Malaysia for generations to come.



Scam Calls Getting Out of Hand? The Galaxy S26 Now Answers Them So You Don’t Have To

 We’ve all been there.





You’re makan-ing peacefully, halfway through your nasi lemak, then suddenly your phone rings.

Unknown number.


You answer anyway because mana tahu it’s important.


Next thing you know:


“Hello sir, your parcel ada issue.”


“Your bank account has been suspended.”


“Congratulations, you’ve won—”


Straight away, red flag.


With scam calls and spam calls becoming more common in Malaysia, Samsung is introducing a feature on the Galaxy S26 Series that could genuinely save users a lot of headache, Call Screening .


And honestly? For Malaysians constantly kena spam by fake bank officers, insurance agents, “investment experts” and random robocalls, this one actually feels useful.


Instead of you awkwardly picking up every unknown number, the Galaxy S26 can now screen calls on your behalf using Galaxy AI.

Here’s how it works:


When an unknown number calls, users can activate Call Screening. The phone then answers automatically with an AI voice assistant that politely asks the caller who they are and why they’re calling. While the caller speaks, the Galaxy S26 generates a live transcript on-screen in real time.


From there, users can decide whether to:


Answer the call

Reject it immediately

Or even type replies for the AI voice to read aloud


So instead of panic-answering every random number from “+60 something something,” users can now see exactly what the caller wants before even speaking. Basically, it’s like having a personal bodyguard for your calls



For Malaysians, scam calls aren’t just annoying anymore, they’re becoming genuinely dangerous.


From fake parcel delivery scams to impersonation calls pretending to be banks, government agencies or even police officers, many Malaysians are becoming more cautious about answering unknown numbers altogether. That’s where Call Screening could become especially useful.


Imagine this:


You’re in a meeting, driving, or just tired after work. Your phone rings from an unknown number.


Instead of answering directly, Galaxy AI picks up and asks:


“Please state your name and reason for calling.”


If the caller starts sounding suspicious or dodgy, users can simply reject the call without engaging further.


No awkward conversation.


No pressure.


No wasting time entertaining scammers.


What makes the feature feel practical is how naturally it fits into daily Malaysian life.


Whether you’re:


Avoiding spam calls during work

Screening unknown numbers late at night

Checking if a delivery rider is actually legit

Or trying not to get scammed by fake “bank officers”


The feature acts as an extra layer of protection before users even say hello.


Users can also send typed responses that Galaxy AI reads aloud during the call.


So if you’re busy, you can simply type:


“I’ll call you back later.”


The AI assistant says it for you automatically.


Quite useful especially for those moments where you don’t want to talk but also don’t want to seem rude.


AI features on smartphones sometimes feel a bit syok sendiri, but this one solves an actual problem many Malaysians face almost daily. And in today’s world, where every unknown call already feels a bit sus, that extra peace of mind might actually matter quite a lot.
