Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Asks 'Hey Plex' While Pleasing No One Named Plex
KEY POINTS
- •Samsung announced that Galaxy S26 users can summon the AI agent Perplexity by saying 'Hey Plex.'
- •Perplexity integrates with Samsung Notes, Clock, Gallery, Reminder, and Calendar to help users manage tasks.
- •This initiative is part of Samsung's 'multi-agent ecosystem' to provide more choice and flexibility in AI assistance.
On February 2026, Samsung dropped a cosmic bombshell: Galaxy S26 will summon Perplexity by saying 'Hey, Plex,' instantly making your phone feel like a toddler asking permission to play with Plex servers it can’t actually talk to. Alongside beloved veterans Bixby and Gemini, Perplexity joins the 'multi-agent ecosystem,' a neat idea that throws AI agents into a blender, giving users choice overload instead of clarity. Perplexity isn't just fetching random answers; it’s peeking into your Notes, Clock, Gallery, Reminder, and Calendar, apparently invited to judge your chaotic scheduling. The hilarious disconnect? You say 'Hey Plex,' but your actual Plex server stays lonely, mute, and forever bewildered. Comedy gold distributed by Samsung and The Verge with love and confusion.

Samsung just invented yelling 'Hey Plex' at a phone to confuse your invisible AI assistant, while your real Plex server silently questions its life choices.
Nothing says 2026 like a phone that calls out 'Hey Plex' to an AI that knows too much about your calendar and nothing about your sanity.
Samsung’s new AI ecosystem is basically asking users to juggle three assistants simultaneously, because tech confusion is the best kind of empowerment.
