It uses Gemini to analyze calls in real time and warn users about potential fraud. The feature first appeared on Pixel devices, where it works on-device to preserve user privacy while still identifying shady and suspicious patterns in conversations.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it looks like Samsung is preparing to take things further with its next-generation foldables.<\/p>\n<p>While digging through the Phone by Google app (version 217.0.895016164-publicbeta-pixel), we found references suggesting that Gemini-powered Scam Detection is expanding to Samsung\u2019s upcoming foldables.<\/p>\n<p>The following model numbers appear in the app:<\/p>\n<p>SM-F976 (Z Fold 8)<br \/>\nSM-F971 (Wide Fold)<br \/>\nSM-F776 (Z Flip 8)<\/p>\n<p>These are accompanied by multiple model numbers that show regional variants of those devices, including:<\/p>\n<p>B (global)<br \/>\nU\/U1 (US carrier-locked\/unlocked)<br \/>\nW (Canada)<br \/>\nC, Z, Q (other regional markets)<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, one expected global variant of the Galaxy Z Flip 8, SM-F776B,\u00a0 appears to be missing from the list of model numbers. It\u2019s unclear if this is just an oversight or something more intentional.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_dm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_Wg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Wg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The sheer spread of regional SKUs listed in the app not only suggests that Scam Detection is coming to Samsung\u2019s new foldables, but it also shows that the company is planning a broader rollout of the feature beyond the US. For what it\u2019s worth, Google already supports Scam Detection in multiple countries on Pixel 9 and Pixel 10 devices.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung is expected to unveil its next foldables <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-8-wide-unpacked-date-3656057\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">at a Galaxy Unpacked event in July 2026<\/a>, and while it\u2019s not really a surprise that the new phones are getting a feature the Galaxy S26 series already has, it\u2019s good to know Samsung will make Scam Detection available more widely. It also signals that Galaxy S26 users in other countries could gain access to Scam Detection once it rolls out to the new foldables, or perhaps even earlier.<\/p>\n<p>\u26a0\ufe0f An APK teardown helps predict features that may arrive on a service in the future based on work-in-progress code. However, it is possible that such predicted features may not make it to a public release.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for being part of our community.
