Another Internet browser has thrown its hat into the cross-platform ring, but we didn\u2019t expect Samsung to be the new challenger.<\/p>\n
As announced on its official newsroom<\/u>, Samsung has launched a beta programme to test the Windows PC version<\/b> of Samsung Internet Browser<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Fans and users of the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem would recognise the app, because it\u2019s the same default Internet browser that comes preinstalled on Samsung Galaxy phones (alongside Google Chrome).<\/p>\n Key features of Samsung Internet Browser for Windows.<\/p>\n Image: Samsung<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n The main perk of Samsung\u2019s Windows PC version of the Internet browser is the ability to sync browsing data, bookmarks, and history<\/b>, along with Samsung Pass <\/b>(autofills and sign-ins), across your Samsung Galaxy phone and a laptop\/desktop of your choice. Users can also continue their browsing journey between devices<\/b>.<\/p>\n Another key perk is access to Galaxy AI<\/b>. When the user logs in with the same Samsung Account on the Windows PC browser, they can utilise Galaxy AI features, such as Browsing Assist<\/b>, which is also available to Samsung phone users. Unfortunately, the official announcement did not share what other Galaxy AI features will be made available.<\/p>\n \u201cThis beta program unlocks a more connected experience across mobile and PC, while setting the stage for more intelligent browsing experiences to come. Looking ahead, Samsung Internet\u2019s capabilities will redefine how users interact with the web, evolving from a PC browser that waits for input to an integrated AI platform that understands users while protecting personal data at every level.\u201d<\/p>\n Won-Joon Choi, Chief Operating Officer of the Mobile eXperience (MX) Business at Samsung Electronics.<\/p>\n What Samsung imagines the ultimate Internet browsing experience would look like.<\/p>\n Image: Samsung<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n The announcement is also relatively light on details regarding data privacy and security. Samsung has only announced that it has smart anti-tracking<\/b>, which blocks web trackers that collect personal information. It also features a Privacy Dashboard<\/b>, which provides a real-time snapshot of the user\u2019s online protections.<\/p>\n The beta programme is currently available only to users of\u00a0Windows 11\u00a0<\/b>and\u00a0Windows 10<\/b>\u00a0based in the\u00a0United States<\/b>\u00a0and\u00a0Korea<\/b>. However, the company said it plans to offer \u201cbroader expansion\u201d. If you qualify for the beta, you can try it out here<\/u>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
