Google's smartest Gemini version is now available on Galaxy phones, tablets

Google's AI assistant Gemini is getting new features and improved performance every month. Google has now announced the launch of Gemini 2.5 Pro, Gemini's most advanced AI model yet, which can do deep research for improved accuracy.

It is now available to users on Galaxy smartphones and tablets with the Gemini Advanced subscription.

Google announced Gemini 2.5 Pro (experimental) for Gemini Advanced subscribers. This mid-year release brings advanced reasoning to all models in the series. The Gemini app, powered by Gemini 2.5 Pro AI models, will be capable of “reasoning through their thoughts before responding, resulting in enhanced performance and improved accuracy.“

The Galaxy S25 series comes with a 6-month subscription to Gemini Advanced for free. So, if you have a Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+, or Galaxy S25 Ultra, you can use Gemini 2.5 Pro for free until that subscription ends.

Gemini 2.5 Pro can handle more complex tasks and support more capable and context-aware AI agents. Compared to Gemini 2.0 Flash Thinking, Gemini 2.5 Pro offers a “new level of performance by combining a significantly enhanced base model with improved post-training.“

Google also claimed that its new Gemini AI model has topped the LMArena leaderboard, defeating rivals by a significant margin. It ranks higher than the best AI models from OpenAI, Claude, Grok, and DeepSeek. It offers significantly improved coding performance, native support for multimodality (audio, code, images, videos, and text), and a 1-million context window.
