100-word summary
Samsung is integrating Perplexity as a system-level AI agent on upcoming flagship Galaxy devices, accessible via "Hey Plex" voice command. The agent connects across Notes, Clock, Gallery, Reminder, and Calendar apps to handle multi-step workflows in a single request. For example, Perplexity can update notes with a plan, create calendar events, and set reminders without switching apps. This reduces manual app-hopping for users managing schedules and assets. Galaxy AI basic features remain free, though enhanced and third-party features may carry fees. Availability details and supported devices will be announced soon.
