No third-party apps are required. The on-device AI also keeps conversations completely private. With this, you can easily chat with another student or colleague from abroad, or book a reservation while on vacation in another country. With Interpreter, live conversations can be instantly translated on a split-screen view so people standing opposite each other can read a text transcription of what the other person has said. It even works without cellular data or Wi-Fi. For messages and other apps, Chat Assist can help perfect conversational tones to ensure communication sounds as it was intended: like a polite message to a coworker or a short and catchy phrase for a social media caption. AI built into Samsung Keyboard can also translate messages in real-time in 13 languages. In the car, Android Auto will automatically summarise incoming messages and suggest relevant replies and actions, like sending someone your ETA, so you can stay connected while staying focused on the road. Note Assist in Samsung Notes, features AI-generated summaries, template creation that streamlines notes with pre-made formats, and cover creation to make notes easy to spot with a brief preview. For voice recordings, even when there are multiple speakers, Transcript Assist uses AI and speech-to-text technology to transcribe, summarise and even translate recordings. Galaxy S24 is the first phone to debut the intuitive, gesture-driven ‘Circle to Search’ tool with Google. With a long press on the home button, users can circle, highlight, scribble on, or tap anything on the screen to see helpful, high-quality search results. Seeing a beautiful landmark in the background of a friend’s social media post or a surprising fun fact on YouTube Shorts can quickly become an accurate search to learn more – without having to leave that app. Catch Emma Myers dive right into the heart of Seoul, capturing its stunning details #withGalaxy S24 Ultra – and uncovering new sights through Circle to Search with Google. #TeamGalaxy #GalaxyS24 Ultra #SamsungUnpacked Learn more: https://t.co/6tdRbiH24R pic.twitter.com/ksmChCHfcK — Samsung Mobile (@SamsungMobile) January 17, 2024 Imagery and editing tools The series’ ProVisual Engine is a comprehensive suite of AI-powered tools that transform image-capturing abilities and maximise creative freedom, from setting up a shot to sharing it on social. Galaxy S24 Ultra’s Quad Tele System, with a new 5x optical zoom lens, works with the 50MP sensor to enable optical-quality performance at zoom levels from 2x, 3x, 5x to 10x magnification thanks to Adaptive Pixel Sensor. Images also show crystal clear results at 100x with enhanced digital zoom. With upgraded Nightography capabilities, photos and videos shot in any condition, even when zoomed in. You can capture more light in dim conditions with Galaxy S24 Ultra’s larger pixel size, now 1.4 μm, which is 60 per cent bigger compared to the previous model. Blur is reduced on the S24 Ultra with wider optical image stabiliser angles and enhanced hand-shake compensation. When recording videos, both front and rear cameras are equipped with dedicated ISP block for noise reduction. The phone analyses gyro information to distinguish between the filmer’s movement and the subject’s. This allows more effective noise removal and clear videos in the dark, even from far away. Additionally, Galaxy AI editing tools enable simple edits like erase, re-compose, and remaster. For easier and more efficient optimisations. Here’s how: Edit Suggestion uses Galaxy AI to suggest perfectly suitable tweaks for each photo. To give users even more creative control and freedom, Generative Edit can fill in parts of an image background with generative AI. When a picture is crooked, AI will fill in the borders. When an object needs to be slightly moved to be in the perfect position, AI lets users adjust the position of the subject and generates a perfectly blended background in its original spot. Anytime the phone uses generative AI to amplify an image, a watermark will appear on the image and in metadata. If an action-packed video needs to be slowed down, new ‘instant slow-mo’ can generate additional frames based on movements to smoothly slow down action-packed moments for a more detailed look. Super HDR helps you see lifelike previews before the shutter is ever pressed. And while capturing memories is an essential phone feature, sharing memories with the world is just as meaningful. The Galaxy S series camera features now integrate directly with mobile apps in HDR to level up social sharing. Images viewed in the gallery or Instagram feed and reels, photos and videos are shown in Super HDR for a more lifelike range of brightness, colour and contrast by analysing highlighted section of the images. Performance Galaxy S24 Ultra is equipped with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform for Galaxy. The chipset delivers remarkable NPU improvement for efficient AI processing. In all three models, 1-120 Hz adaptive refresh rates also improve performance efficiency. Galaxy gaming is more powerful thanks to hardware and software improvements. Galaxy S24 Ultra boasts an optimal thermal control system with a 1.9 times larger vapor chamber, improving device surface temperature while also maximizing sustained performance power. The phone reaches 2,600nit peak brightness and delivers improved outdoor visibility with Vision Booster. It also delivers reduced reflection by up to 75 per cent in a wide range of lighting conditions, ensuring a smooth, comfortable viewing experience. Security features Secured by Samsung Knox, Galaxy S24 aims to protect critical information and offers end-to-end secure hardware, real-time threat detection, and collaborative protection. Users can control how much they allow their data to enhance AI experiences, through advanced intelligence settings which can disable online processing of data for AI features. The Knox Matrix vision of a secure, connected and password-less future is also advanced with passkeys. Passkeys enable convenient and secure access to a users’ registered websites and apps across all their trusted devices through digital credentials, helping protect against phishing attacks. Enhanced Data Protection offers end-to-end encryption when users backup, sync or restore their data with Samsung Cloud, allowing Galaxy S24 users to connect to other devices while staying synchronised and secure. Data can only be encrypted or decrypted on a user’s devices, meaning nobody can see it but the user, even if a server is compromised or account details are stolen. And if access to a trusted device is lost, a recovery code can help prevent loss of data. Galaxy S24 is also protected with security and privacy features including Knox Vault, Security & Privacy Dashboard, Auto Blocker, Secure Wi-Fi, Private Share, Maintenance Mode and more. Focused on sustainability For the first time, Galaxy S24 features components made with recycled cobalt and rare earth elements. In Galaxy S24 Ultra, a minimum of 50 per cent recycled cobalt was used in the battery, and 100 per cent recycled rare earth elements were incorporated into the speakers. Galaxy S24 is also the first Galaxy S Series to be designed with recycled steel and Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU). Galaxy S24 Ultra features a minimum of 40 per cent recycled steel in the speakers, and it includes a minimum of 10 per cent pre-consumer recycled TPU in the side and volume keys. Additionally, every Galaxy S24 comes in a packaging box made from 100 per cent recycled paper material. Lastly, Galaxy S24 is UL ECOLOGO certified, and its carbon footprint has been measured and verified by The Carbon Trust. By 2030, Samsung will incorporate at least one recycled material in every module of every mobile product. Design and colours Across the Galaxy S24 series, design enhancements with slimmer and even bezels make it easier to immerse in any viewing experience and enable larger screen sizes on Galaxy S24+’s 6.7-inch and Galaxy S24’s 6.2-inch displays within nearly the same size specifications. Galaxy S24 Ultra has a 6.8-inch flatter display, optimized not just for viewing but also for productivity. Plus, the Galaxy S24+ now supports the same level of QHD+ found on the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
