Samsung has officially announced that it's bringing its Internet browser app to Windows 11 (and Windows 10) PCs, and users in the United States or South Korea can be the first to try it by signing up for the Samsung Internet beta program.
For years, Galaxy phones have shipped with a default web browser simply dubbed "Internet," which over time has become somewhat of a hidden gem amongst Samsung phone users. It's a great browser, complete with extension support, dark mode, and cross device sync with your Samsung account.
It even recently gained some AI features such as the ability to summarize webpages, and more. It's very customizable too, letting you change the position of the address bar, tabs, and UI buttons. Now, the app is coming to Windows PCs, based on Chromium.
The new Samsung Internet browser for Windows PCs is a fully featured browsing experience, complete with tab and bookmark syncing, saved passwords, extension support, and even AI features. It features sign-in with Samsung, which will sync your data between Samsung Internet clients too.
The browser features a familiar "browser" UI, but with more rounded corners that are in-line with Samsung's OneUI design language. It features a cool tab overview page that's very animation heavy and blurs the background with whatever webpage you have open, and it also includes a built-in adblocker and web page dark mode theme option.
"Samsung Internet for PC allows users to sync their browsing data, such as bookmarks and browsing history. Personal data is also synchronized with Samsung Pass, helping users sign in to websites or autofill profiles securely across devices," explains Samsung. "Additionally, users will now be prompted to resume browsing when switching between mobile devices and PC, enabling a more seamless, cross-device web experience."
The new Samsung Internet is currently in beta, and only available in the United States and South Korea for users who sign up for the Samsung Internet PC Beta. Availability is expected to broaden over the coming weeks and months, and will likely eventually even be pre-installed on Samsung Galaxy laptops running Windows 11.
