Galaxy users gain instant access to real-time sports scores and market information through new Samsung News features powered by Yahoo Sports and Yahoo Finance
October 1, 2025 – Samsung has announced a significant enhancement to its Samsung News platform, aimed at delivering the most up-to-date sports and financial market information directly to Galaxy users. In partnership with Yahoo Media Group—the operator behind Yahoo Sports and Yahoo Finance—Samsung is introducing a dedicated Sports tab and a comprehensive financial market module within Samsung News, marking the platform’s first major feature expansion.
Seamless Access to Real-Time Sports Coverage
Leveraging Yahoo Sports’ decades of experience and digital media leadership, the new Sports tab offers Galaxy users instant access to live scores, schedules, standings, and player statistics from leading professional leagues and sports around the world. Fans can personalize their experience by selecting favorite teams and sports genres, ensuring timely updates and in-depth coverage catered to their interests. The integration also features expert commentary and video content, presenting a rich, engaging experience fully integrated within the Samsung ecosystem.
Comprehensive Financial Market Tracking At Your Fingertips
For those tracking market movements, Samsung News now includes a robust financial market module powered by Yahoo Finance. This new feature provides real-time updates on major U.S. stock indices alongside a curated news stream featuring headlines and analysis from top financial news sources. Users can stay informed about the latest market trends, economic developments, and breaking financial news without leaving the Samsung News app.
A Unified Destination for News, Sports, and Finance
“Galaxy users turn to Samsung News multiple times a day for the latest headlines from the world’s top news sources,” said Maya Harris, Vice President and Head of Strategic Partnerships for Samsung’s TV & Mobile Services. “Now, with Yahoo’s trusted real-time information, Samsung News becomes a live destination not only for news but also for sports fans and market followers alike.”
Ryan Spoon, President of Yahoo Media Group, added, “We’re thrilled to partner with Samsung to integrate Yahoo Sports and Yahoo Finance into the Samsung News experience. Together, we’re creating a smarter, faster way for Galaxy users to follow the scores, news, and market information that matters most to them.”
Additional News and Customization Options
Beyond live sports and financial content, Samsung News continues to offer timely updates across a broad range of topics including politics, entertainment, and business. The platform delivers Daily Briefings twice a day, carefully curated by experienced news editors to provide users with a well-rounded news experience. Furthermore, users can tailor their news feed preferences through a broad selection of content partners such as NBC News, ESPN, Fox Business, Complex, and Time Out.
