Samsung Brings Its Mobile Internet Browser to Windows PCs
Samsung’s native smartphone browser is officially expanding beyond mobile, making its debut on Windows computers.
Previously exclusive to Galaxy devices, the Samsung Internet browser is coming to desktop with the goal of delivering a “more intelligent browsing experience,” according to the company. While the PC browser market is already crowded — especially with the rise of AI-powered tools — Samsung’s version could appeal strongly to Galaxy phone owners thanks to seamless cross-device syncing.
The browser syncs browsing history, bookmarks, and saved data between mobile and PC. It also integrates with Samsung Pass, the company’s biometric authentication and password management platform, enabling quick, secure logins across devices. In addition, the browser automatically blocks third-party tracking, offering an added layer of privacy.
Samsung says the move is part of its broader vision to create “a gateway to truly ambient AI across the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem.” When logged in with a Samsung account, users will gain access to Galaxy AI features such as Browsing Assist, which provides instant webpage summaries and translations to help users locate information more efficiently.
“Looking ahead, Samsung Internet will evolve from a browser that simply waits for input into an integrated AI platform that understands users while protecting their data,” said Won-Joon Choi, COO of Samsung’s Mobile eXperience (MX) division.
This marks the first official release of Samsung Internet for Windows, although limited test versions briefly appeared in the Microsoft Store in 2023 before being withdrawn.
The Windows version launches as a beta program, available initially in the United States and South Korea. It supports Windows 10 (version 1809 or later) and Windows 11, and requires participants to log in with a Samsung account.
According to SamMobile, the browser is built on Google’s Chromium engine and supports Chrome Web Store extensions, giving users access to familiar plug-ins and features.
With this expansion, Samsung aims to further unify its Galaxy ecosystem — blending mobile convenience, AI-powered tools, and desktop functionality into a single connected experience.
