- Perplexity is in early talks with Samsung to become an AI assistant option on Galaxy smartphones.
- The startup has reportedly secured a similar deal with Motorola.
- Despite Samsung’s close ties with Google, Perplexity could offer Galaxy users a smarter alternative to Gemini.
Perplexity is one of the most up-and-coming AI assistants, rivaling the likes of Google Gemini and ChatGPT. When we put the Perplexity Assistant to the test, we were greatly impressed by its performance. Android Authority‘s Calvin Wankhade even remarked that it made Gemini look bad in comparison. Now, we’re hearing that Perplexity is in early talks with Samsung to secure a coveted spot on its smartphones, a position currently enjoyed by Gemini, and, to a lesser extent, Bixby.
