It does not automatically sign your devices out. If you only want to disconnect one phone or tablet, remove the account from that device instead; that action is reversible.
What permanent deletion removes
Samsung says deleting an account removes its account details, personal and profile information, and remaining linked data. Depending on the services you use, that can include downloads, purchase history, subscriptions, content uploads and other service-related information. Samsung warns that affected information may not be recoverable. The precise data involved depends on the Samsung services tied to the account.

Because purchases, subscriptions and content can be associated with the account, check the services you use before proceeding. Samsung’s US account guide identifies purchase history, content subscriptions, uploads and profile information among the information affected.

Deletion does not sign devices out
Samsung warns that deleting the account does not automatically sign it out on phones, tablets or other devices. Sign out on your devices before you confirm deletion. After the account is deleted, you may no longer be able to use Samsung account sign-in for Samsung-service options to reset a device or erase information on it. See Samsung’s Saudi Arabia deletion guidance.

Deleting the account vs. removing it from a device
These are different actions. Permanent deletion closes the account; removing it disconnects just the selected device, and Samsung says you can add the account back later.
| Action | What changes | Can you add the account back? | Effect on device data |
|---|---|---|---|
| Delete the Samsung account | The account closes and linked information and Samsung-service access are affected. | No; deletion is permanent. | Do not assume local, unsynced files are deleted from the device. |
| Remove the account from a device | That device disconnects from the account and stops syncing account data. | Yes; Samsung describes removal as reversible. | Synced data is removed from that device; locally stored data that was not synced remains. |
Samsung’s US guide to managing a Samsung account explains the difference between synced and locally stored data when an account is removed from a device. If your aim is only to stop using the account on one Galaxy device, use device removal rather than permanent deletion.
