Artificial intelligence startup Perplexity launched an agent-based assistant for Android devices on Thursday as it looks to take on larger rival OpenAI's ChatGPT and incumbent assistants such as Apple's Siri and Amazon's Alexa.

As usual, the Galaxy S25+ is the larger of Samsung’s two standard models, with a 6.7-inch display. By comparison, Google has shrunk things with its Pixel 9 Pro this year, moving down to a 6.3-inch display; you’ll have to opt for the Google Pixel 9 Pro XL if you want the full-sized model.

Perplexity has turned its AI “answer engine” into a mobile assistant on Android. The new assistant can answer general questions and perform tasks on your behalf, such as writing an email, setting a reminder, booking dinners, and more.
