Samsung has officially launched its Samsung Internet browser for Windows, marking the first time the company is bringing its popular mobile browser to the desktop platform. The beta release became available on October 30, 2025, initially for users in the United States and Korea, with plans for wider expansion in the coming months.
Bridging Mobile and Desktop
The Samsung Internet for PC beta is compatible with Windows 11 and Windows 10 (version 1809 and above) and works on ARM-powered devices as well. This move comes approximately 13 years after Samsung Internet first debuted on mobile devices and follows a brief Windows launch in 2024 that was quickly pulled from the Microsoft Store.
Samsung Internet for PC delivers seamless cross-platform syncing capabilities, allowing users to synchronize bookmarks, browsing history, and autofill data across their mobile and desktop devices. The browser also integrates with Samsung Pass for secure account management, enabling users to maintain consistent credentials across platforms. When switching between devices, users will receive prompts to resume browsing sessions, creating a more connected experience within the Samsung Galaxy ecosystem.
AI and Privacy at the Forefront
The timing of Samsung Internet’s Windows launch reflects the broader trend of AI-powered browsers becoming increasingly competitive. The browser includes Galaxy AI features such as Browsing Assist, which provides instant webpage summarization and translation to help users find information faster.
Security remains a core priority for the browser. Samsung Internet for PC includes standard privacy and security features like tracker blocking and a privacy dashboard, giving users visibility into which cookies and trackers have been blocked on a daily basis.
Positioning in the AI Browser Race
Samsung’s desktop browser launch positions the company within the rapidly evolving AI browser landscape, competing with offerings like OpenAI’s ChatGPT Atlas, Microsoft’s Edge Copilot Mode, Opera Neon, and Perplexity’s Comet browser. According to Samsung, the browser represents part of the company’s broader “ambient AI” vision—a concept where artificial intelligence seamlessly integrates into everyday life and anticipates user needs while protecting personal data.
Getting Started
Users interested in participating in the beta program can sign up through Samsung’s official browser page. The browser is not exclusive to Samsung Galaxy Book devices, mirroring the company’s approach with its Android browser, which is available to any Android user regardless of device brand.
