This latest operating system is all about Artifical Intelligence (AI) with many of the features currently found on the latest Samsung Galaxy S24 now coming to more phones in Samsung’s lineup.
Useful changes include Live Translate which offers real-time voice and text translation right on the device. That means you can call a restaurant in France and make a reservation without needing to speak a word of French. A new Interpreter mode also allows you to engage in spontaneous conversations with locals while travelling as the split-screen feature generates text translations for live conversations.
Another useful addition is Circle to Search which does exactly what it says on the tin. For example, simply circle Big Ben in a photo and you’ll get full details about this famous clock and exactly where it is.
Other extras include Note Assist which tidies up your scribblings and makes things more easy to read. There’s also the option to transcribe recordings into editable text which can save huge amounts.
Those who love snapping videos and photos on their devices will also be pleased to hear that Generative Edit is now coming to more phones. This lets you easily change photos, boost the image and move things around without needing a degree in Photoshop.
It’s also now possible to add slow-motion effects to any video even if it wasn’t shot in slo-mo mode.
