“Starting with Starting with the Flip6, Fold6 and newer models, the Samsung Messages app will no longer be preloaded,” reads a Samsung message posted by Android leaker Max Weinbach. “Instead, Google Messages will provide a new and enhanced experience to express your emotions, making communication safe and fun.”

Google Messages has been the default for Samsung phones since 2022 when Samsung made the switch, which was a boon for RCS messaging.
