Samsung is offering Galaxy users a free year of Perplexity Pro AI, worth $200: Here’s how to get it
Samsung has introduced a new offer that could change how Galaxy users access artificial intelligence tools in their devices.

This move places Perplexity AI, a growing name in the generative AI chatbot space, alongside well-known AI assistants like OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, Microsoft’s Copilot, and xAI’s Grok.

What Perplexity Pro Offers
Perplexity AI offers both a free and a paid plan. The free tier allows unlimited basic searches, which may feel sufficient for everyday use, and also limits access to certain advanced features. For instance, Pro search and Deep Search capabilities are restricted to three uses each per day, and users can only search within five files daily.

The Pro subscription removes these limits by offering unlimited Pro searches, which increases Deep Search usage to 500 times per day, and expands file search capacity to 25 files daily. Subscribers also gain access to multiple large language models, including Sonar, Claude 4.0 Sonnet, GPT-4.1, Gemini 2.5 Pro, Grok 3 Beta, R1 1776, and others, making it suitable for users who depend heavily on AI assistants.

This offer from Samsung may be related to its investment in Perplexity, which aims to integrate the AI assistant with Samsung services such as Bixby, Samsung Internet, and future devices like the Galaxy S26 series. However, for Galaxy users, this deal provides a chance to explore advanced AI tools free of charge for a whole year.
