One UI 6.1 is here! Here’s what’s new،
Samsung has just revealed its big hitters for 2024: the Galaxy S24 phones! And with them we get an updated version of the One UI software that Sammy has developed over the years.
New features in One UI 6.1
Live translation during a phone call
And that’s the first one we’re talking about. THE Galaxy S24 phones will be able to translate speech during a live call. One person speaks, the AI translates, the other speaks. It's all on-device and will support 13 languages at launch.
Chat support on Samsung keyboard
Generative photo editing
As we saw with Google's Magic Editor, generative photo editing will allow you to move or remove objects from a photo, even subtle ones like highlights or shadows, and ask the AI to reconstruct the background based on prediction and pattern recognition.
Transform any video into slow motion
To watch a video (any video) in the Gallery app, you can simply long-press it. Galaxy AI will generate frames between existing frames and slow down the frames. So you instantly get smooth slow motion from any clip, as if it was shot in slow motion in the first place!
Circle to search with Google
Any image you see on your screen, from any app or feed, will be searchable. Simply hold the home button and tap or circle the item in question. The phone should, in theory, recognize whether it's a building, landmark, animal, or other object, and display the appropriate Google search results.
Recorder Transcription
Notes support for Samsung Notes
Android Auto Support
In Android Auto mode, the AI will work to keep you informed without spamming you with multiple messages. If a conversation is in progress, the AI will summarize it and provide the most important information at a glance. It will also offer context-sensitive buttons to quickly reply, set your browsing location, or share your ETA with loved ones – all contextual and based on messages that have been sent to your previous one.
