You are likely familiar with what Google’s Gemini is— an AI generative chatbot model that answers and assists you on anything you ask about. Google Gemini can also digest or craft any complex paragraphs and generate images for you.
Now, there is actually a more advanced version: Gemini Live.
Imagine, asking your family and friends all those random silly questions like: “Should I wear red or black earrings with this Kebaya?” or “I only have Kicap and garlic. What yummy things can I cook?”
Speaking so naturally like that is exactly what Gemini Live lets you do, and you can do it with Samsung Galaxy Devices which consists of Galaxy S25 series and other compatible Galaxy devices in Malaysia.
Essentially, you and "Gemini Live" can verbally chat like friends whether with your Malaysian accent or when you code-switch. And the feature is available on Samsung Galaxy devices, where you get to enjoy even more advanced AI features such as Live Translation.
Here’s how we used our Gemini Live on our devices everyday in Malaysia.
Ask Gemini Live How Healthy is Your Supermarket Candy
Oftentimes, it becomes a challenge to choose the best snack that fits your diet regime. This is when Gemini Live shines.
Straight off the bat, you can ask Gemini Live whether that pack of candy in front of you has a certain ingredient or not. By letting Gemini Live "see" what you see (via camera) or what's on your screen, Gemini Live will give you contextual assistance. Ask anything, like our question “Does this candy have gelatin?” and Gemini Live will have an answer in as fast as 1 second. You can even ask Gemini Live to scan whether the list of ingredients on a food packaging is Halal.
Ask Gemini Live What Fancy Car Did You Just See
Whether we are drivers or not, Malaysians are no stranger to car brands, since we are pretty much car reliant. And these days, with car consumers being more conscious about what car specifications and design they buy, it makes sense to ask around for more opinion.
Gemini Live is also available to be your car buddy and chat with you so you don’t make a regretful expensive purchase. Saw that pretty BMW 3 model but not sure whether it can take the more affordable RON 95 petrol? Or how much horsepower does it have? Yeap, ask Gemini Live right away!
A bonus feature is that you can get Gemini Live to also assist you in location. Say you don’t remember how to get to a place, you can simply get Gemini Live as a tour guide to help you navigate around just with the camera on.
Ask Gemini Live To Give You The “Whole” Story
Questions that affect your lifestyle judgement are just as important. Rather than asking someone whether the Red or Blue political party is at fault or whether we should immediately hate a road-rage bully, Gemini Live is there to give you emotional (and verbal) support. OR, if you just found out a trending topic online, Gemini Live can read your screen to answer what everyone’s raging about as well.
Even for work, content creators all know too well how important statistics are in a content performance. Gemini Live is able to analyse a content and its backend statistics to give you a breakdown as well as suggestions for improvement.
Does everything sound fun? Your conversation with Gemini Live does not stop there!
Gemini Live Works Across Apps On Samsung Galaxy Phones
Once you decide that you have learned enough from Gemini Live, you can continue the flow or take any necessary actions. Gemini Live works with many other apps on Samsung Galaxy phones seamlessly, as if it’s one with Samsung’s One UI.
Say, you have gotten a recipe from Gemini Live. From there you can ask to save the transcription into Samsung Notes. Or if you had asked Gemini Live what are the latest concerts happening near you, you can also get Gemini to book dates and such into your Galaxy device’s Calendar. Gemini can even send the concert details to your friends via messaging!
