Samsung Galaxy is a series of mobile computing devices designed, manufactured and marketed by Samsung Electronics. The product line includes the Galaxy S series of high-end smartphones, the Galaxy Tab series of tablets, the Galaxy Note series of tablets and phablets with the added functionality of a stylus, and the first version of the Galaxy Gear smartwatch, with later versions dropping the Galaxy branding.

Samsung Galaxy devices use the Android operating system produced by Google, usually with a custom user interface called Samsung Experience (formerly TouchWiz). However, the tradition of Android-exclusivity for the series was broken at CES 2016 with the announcement of the first Galaxy-branded Windows 10 device, the Samsung Galaxy TabPro S.

The S7, S8, S9, Note FE and Note8 Galaxy devices come with a file transfer app (Smart Switch) pre-loaded, with no app icon. Smart Switch works with all recent Galaxy devices, from the S2 through to current models.

Since September 2013, model numbers of devices in the Samsung Galaxy series are in the "SM-xxxx" format (excluding the Galaxy J SC-02F). Previously, from 2009 until September 2013, the model numbers were in the "GT-xxxx" format.
