Gemini

Quick question to the new S25u users. These phones are out seem to be all about the AI features. Can they be used not using Gemini? 

I personally don't use Gemini, as when I did, I found it too less than impressive and not something I really want on my phone. Saying that it's probably there whether I like it or not.

At this time I prefer Google Assistant to Gemini @Ginsing64

Your correct, I've just never heard of Google or Apple logging key strokes

That's what I mean really, I tried Gemini and thought it was pants to be honest. Asked it question, it decided the question was unsuitable and wouldn't answer it . It was for research. It was deciding what it would answer or not

Tried Deepseek but found it unreliable with frequent service busy

Gemini is not good at all, maybe in 3-5 more years, it will be good, but as of now... bfff horrible.

Can't see that that either to be honest.. Samsung did sod all about Bixby. When I had my iPhone years ago siri was years ahead of them. Only went to Samsung as apple had less customisation and was over priced.

Gemini isn't actually an alternative to Google assistant or Bixby for that matter. It's purpose is totally separate.

Basically this. Also if you don't want to use it you don't have to. The S25 Ultra is srill a fantastic device even if you don't use the Google Gemini features.

When I say Hey Gemini it just gives me facts about Germany - poor choice of name by Google.

Sorry but that made me chuckle a little bit 😂😂😂
