Upcoming Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S23 Ultra to include Google's Fast Pair tech
Google's Fast Pair feature for setting up your next Android phone, which could be included with the Galaxy S23 series.
According to 9to5Google's analysis of decompiled data, Google's Fast Pair feature will soon be available on smartphones. The information suggests that Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S23, which will be released on February 1, will include the quick setup feature.
What is Fast Pair feature that reported to be included in Galaxy S23 line
Fast Pair uses your Android phone's location and Bluetooth Low Energy to find nearby Bluetooth accessories automatically and connect with a single tap. Like AirPods, it even displays a picture of the connected product.
After that, when you hit connect, a message confirming that the pairing was successful will appear. Android will also suggest downloading the companion app for the accessory from the Play Store. You won't have to mess around with the Bluetooth settings at all.
Fast Pair-compatible accessories can now be connected to Google Account-associated devices with ease thanks to Google. Fast Pair will now link any connected accessories to all of your current and future Android phones (6.0+) by registering them with your Google account.
The benefits of Google's Fast Pair as to Galaxy S23 series
Fast Pair currently supports smartwatches and headphones, but trackers and styluses will soon be supported. For instance, users can transfer their data when setting up a Samsung device by utilizing the Smart Switch app from Samsung. Similar to how QR codes are used to set up other devices, the feature requires the user to scan a code to start the data transfer.
As a lot of people will likely be upgrading their phones to the most recent Galaxy S23 models, the launch of the Galaxy S23 series will be an ideal time to roll out the feature. The feature is anticipated to function similarly to how Wear OS watches appear on Fast Pair, making the process for users a smooth and seamless one given that the Galaxy models run on Android-based OneUI.
