Staying organized and keeping track of information becomes a breeze with the Galaxy S24. Note Assist utilizes AI to generate summaries, pre-formatted templates, and eye-catching covers for your notes, making them easy to find and reference. For those crucial voice recordings, Transcript Assist leverages AI magic to transcribe, summarize, and even translate multi-speaker conversations, ensuring you never miss a detail. And when you need to delve deeper into information, Circle to Search, a revolutionary gesture-driven tool developed in collaboration with Google, allows you to search directly within any app. Simply long press, circle, highlight, scribble on, or tap anything on your screen, and instantly trigger a Google search, bringing context and details to life without ever leaving the app you’re using.

Galaxy S24 series’s ProVisual Engine is a comprehensive suite of AI-powered tools that transform image-capturing abilities and maximize creative freedom every step of the way, from setting up a shot all the way to sharing it on social. Galaxy S24 Ultra’s Quad Tele System, with new 5x optical zoom lens, works with the 50MP sensor to enable optical-quality performance at zoom levels from 2x, 3x, 5x to 10 magnification thanks to Adaptive Pixel Sensor.

With upgraded Nightography capabilities, Samsung claims that photos and videos shot on Galaxy S24 Space Zoom are superior as the phone’s camera is able to capture more light in dim conditions with Galaxy S24 Ultra’s larger pixel size, now 1.4 μm, which is 60% bigger compared to the previous model. Blur is reduced on Galaxy S24 Ultra with wider optical image stabilizer (OIS) angles and enhanced hand-shake compensation. When recording videos, both front and rear cameras are equipped with Dedicated ISP Block for noise reduction, and Galaxy S24 analyzes 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.

After great shots are captured, innovative Galaxy AI editing tools enable simple edits like erase, re-compose, and remaster. For easier and more efficient optimizations, 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 Galaxy S24 deploys generative AI to amplify an image, a watermark will appear on the image and in metadata. And 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.
