After more than a decade of focusing on mobile platforms, Samsung is bringing its Samsung Internet browser to Windows desktop PCs. The company announced a beta of the Chromium-based browser for Windows 11 and Windows 10 systems running version 1809 or newer, with availability beginning October 30, 2025, in the United States and Korea. The move ends a long mobile-first approach and marks Samsung’s first formal desktop release of the browser.
The desktop version is designed to create a unified browsing ecosystem across Samsung’s product lineup, letting users carry their digital experience seamlessly between phones and computers. Users who sign in with their Samsung Account will have bookmarks, browsing history, and saved passwords synchronized through Samsung Pass, which is intended to simplify authentication and form filling across devices. The browser will also prompt users switching between a Galaxy phone and a PC to pick up where they left off, reducing the need to hunt down tabs across devices.
Samsung is integrating intelligent features powered by Galaxy Artificial Intelligence into the desktop browser. Those features include Browsing Assist, which can summarize web pages and translate content on the fly. The company positions these capabilities as part of a broader effort to extend local Artificial Intelligence integration across more applications as it expands beyond mobile devices.
The desktop beta signals a strategic shift for Samsung and aims to bring a more consistent browsing experience to users who already use Samsung Internet on Galaxy devices. By combining cross-device sync, Samsung Pass authentication, and Galaxy Artificial Intelligence tools, the browser attempts to offer a cohesive alternative for users on Windows while highlighting Samsung’s interest in expanding its software footprint.
