SAMSUNG is planning to release a feast of new features for existing Galaxy smartphones in its latest free upgrade.
The company has gone huge on AI following the launch of the brand new Galaxy S24 series.
Fortunately older handsets aren’t being left out in the dark, as Samsung is rolling some of these top perks to previous models too.
It’s currently unclear which of the big new AI features will land on older smartphones as part of the firm’s own Android software, known as One UI.
The next big Samsung upgrade is expected sometime in the first half of 2024 on the following models:
The highlights we saw last week included massive image editing improvements, the ability to translate phone calls in real-time and circle to search so you can find just about anything from Google simply by drawing a circle around it.
However, there were some smaller but exciting additions coming to One UI 6.1 later this year as well.
Among all the AI excitement coming to Samsung’s phones are AI wallpapers.
If you’re wondering what that means, well, essentially you can tell your phone exactly what you want the wallpaper to look like and it’ll create it for you.
Just type out what it is and the AI will generate an image.
It could be as wild as cows flying through space or a serine beach setting with your name in the sky.
AI isn’t the only big change to wallpapers.
You can now add weather onto them as well, so they’ll change depending on the current conditions where you are.
So if it’s raining outside, that’s what you’ll see over your wallpaper.
It serves as a much more visual and quick way for weather updates.
A brand new app is launching on One UI 6.1 called Samsung Find.
It allows you to keep track of all your gadgets in one place.
Think of it like Apple‘s Find My or Google‘s Find My Device.
It’s broken down into three tabs: People, Devices and Items.
With the People section you can share your local with a loved one much like you can do on Google Maps and Facebook.
