Samsung stops updates for three Galaxy devices in July 2025

Samsung Security Patch

Samsung has announced its software update plan for July 2025, and three Galaxy devices will no longer receive support. The Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G, all launched in 2021, have reached the end of their update cycle.

This means they won’t get new software or security patches from Samsung moving forward. These devices received regular updates over the past four years, including major Android upgrades and security fixes, as promised by Samsung.

Before being removed from the update list, they were getting updates twice a year. While Samsung’s support has ended, there’s no need to panic. These devices will still receive Google Play system updates, which help keep them secure and fix critical issues.

You can continue using apps like banking or social media without problems. Even though these Galaxy devices are no longer supported, they remain safe and functional for everyday tasks. If you’re using one of these, it might still work well for calls, browsing, or streaming.

Samsung Auto DeX: What it really is

Published

Samsung Auto Dex

Recent buzz about Samsung’sAuto DeX” being a rival to Android Auto got people excited, but the truth is simpler. Auto DeX isn’t a new feature or an Android Auto replacement. Instead, it’s an unofficial trick to make Samsung Auto, an existing Android Auto alternative used in China, work on non-Chinese car displays.

Samsung Auto lets Galaxy phones project a car-friendly interface onto a vehicle’s screen, similar to Android Auto. The Auto DeX workaround uses a phone’s desktop mode and a receiver app to cast this interface to car head units that don’t natively support Samsung Auto. This creates a DeX-like experience, but it’s not an official Samsung product.

A leaked screenshot from X user Galaxy Techie showed this setup, claiming it works on over 8,500 car models across 120 brands, even without car support, but it’s not a standalone feature. Code reviews of Samsung Auto’s latest app versions found no solid evidence of an official Auto DeX feature.

The term only appears in a package name, not in the app itself. While Samsung might be exploring ways to mirror a car-optimized interface, there’s no proof yet. For now, Auto DeX is just a clever workaround, not a game-changer for Android Auto or Apple CarPlay.

Gemini AI now on Wear OS smartwatches

Gemini

Google is bringing its Gemini AI to Wear OS smartwatches, replacing Google Assistant with a smarter, more conversational helper. The update, rolling out through the Play Store, is already available for some users and will reach more Wear OS 4+ devices, like Pixel Watch, Samsung, OnePlus, OPPO, and Xiaomi, in the coming weeks.

For Pixel Watch owners, this is part of the July 2025 Pixel Drop, which also includes updates like Circle to Search and Veo 3 on Pixel. With Gemini, you can talk naturally to your watch, asking it to do things like send messages, create playlists, or check emails without needing your phone.

You can start it by saying “Hey Google,” pressing the side button, or tapping the Gemini app. The watch shows a colorful waveform and a sparkle icon when you give commands, displaying answers in text, images, or voice. To use app features, like checking Gmail or Calendar, you need to enable them in the Gemini app on your phone.

The update changes the Assistant app to “Google Gemini on Wear OS,” with a new icon and version 1.22.5.780344288 for those getting the full Gemini experience. Older watches might rely on your phone’s processing, but newer ones, like the Galaxy Watch 8, could handle more tasks on their own. This makes your smartwatch a handy, powerful tool for everyday tasks.
