What is Gemini Ai on Galaxy Watch?
A few months ago, Google was set to introduce Gemini AI on Galaxy Watch from Pixel, Samsung, Oppo, and OnePlus. The much-expected update brought Gemini to my wrist, which meant I no longer had to pull out my phone from my pocket to use the AI assistant. This update will outspread AI functionalities across the entire Galaxy ecosystem, creating a more unified and intellectual user experience.

What Can Gemini Do on Your Watch?
I have been playing around with Gemini on my Galaxy Watches, which brings Google’s smartest AI assistant right to your wrist. From simple AI summaries to comparing products online, Google Gemini turned out to be a fun and useful assistant. Here’s a look at how the wrist-friendly version of Google’s AI assistant became a daily essential for me.
Gemini comes pre-installed on:
- Galaxy Watch8, Watch8 Classic, Watch Ultra (launched July 2025)
- One UI Watch Version – should be 8.0 or higher for Gemini
- Wear OS Version – should be Wear OS 4 or Wear OS 5+ need to update.
Using Gemini AI on Your Wrist: A Real-World Experience
Unlike the old Assistant, Gemini doesn’t just follow voice commands -it understands what you want and gives relevant suggestions. Gemini is previously accessible on devices like smartphones, select headphones, and earphones, but using the AI voice assistant from my wrist felt more natural since it is just one press away. This meant that I could use Gemini while walking, running, riding my bike, and even in the middle of my lunch, without having to worry about the smartphone getting greasy. Al on smartwatches feels like a mini AI companion, and it helps to summarize emails, answer questions, or even suggest nearby places. With its compact screen, the smartwatch felt easier to use than a regular smartphone—and surprisingly, I used Gemini more than I ever did on my flip phone
