Samsung Gulf Electronics has launched Arabic language support for its Galaxy AI-powered Call Screening feature, extending one of its key artificial intelligence capabilities to Arabic-speaking users across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).
The update aims to improve how users handle incoming calls by providing a real-time transcript of a caller’s reason for calling before the recipient decides whether to answer. The feature is particularly useful in the GCC, where calls from delivery companies, banks, businesses, and unfamiliar numbers are common.
By introducing Arabic support, Samsung is further localising its Galaxy AI platform to better serve regional users and strengthen accessibility across the Middle East.
Fadi Abu Shamat, Vice President and Head of the Mobile eXperience Division at Samsung Gulf Electronics, said the company is committed to making its AI innovations more relevant to customers in the region.
He noted that the addition of Arabic enables more users to manage calls in their native language, giving them greater control over incoming communications while reinforcing Samsung’s vision of delivering Galaxy AI experiences tailored to local needs.
The Call Screening feature is available on the Samsung Galaxy S26 series and can be activated through the device settings by downloading the preferred language pack. With the latest update, the feature now supports 16 languages and 23 language and dialect variations.
When a call is received, Galaxy AI answers on the user’s behalf and prompts the caller to explain the purpose of the call. The device then generates a live transcript, allowing users to review the information before choosing to answer, reject the call, or reply with a message.
Samsung said only the conversation between the caller and the AI assistant is recorded, and the recording ends automatically once the user answers the call. Users also have the option to enable automatic screening for all incoming calls or use the feature selectively.
The rollout marks another step in Samsung’s broader strategy to expand language support within its Galaxy AI ecosystem while delivering AI-powered experiences that better meet the preferences and everyday needs of users across the GCC and the wider Middle East.
