Samsung has just announced on its official channels that it will be bringing the One UI 6.1 to older flagship and premium devices. With this update, older Samsung devices will receive Galaxy AI features previously only available on the Samsung Galaxy S24 series.
In the announcement, Samsung confirms that the following models will be getting the One UI 6.1 update:
“Our goal with Galaxy AI is not only to pioneer a new era of mobile AI but also to empower users by making AI more accessible. This is only the beginning of Galaxy AI, as we plan to bring the experience to over 100 million Galaxy users within 2024 and continue to innovate ways to harness the unlimited possibilities of mobile AI.”
TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics.
We have previously covered that the following Galaxy AI features will be heading to the 2023 flagship and premium devices:
- Circle to Search
- Live Translate
- Note Assist
- Photo Assist
- Instant Slo-mo
Now we have more confirmed Galaxy AI features heading to the older phones. Chat Assist is one of the new features which can adjust message tone and translate messages in 13 different languages. Interpreter is a feature where users can engage in spontaneous conversations with locals while travelling as the split-screen feature generates text translations for live conversations.
Browsing Assist enables individuals to stay up to speed faster by generating comprehensive summaries of news articles. Transcript Assist meanwhile can help transcribe meeting recordings and generate summaries and translations. Lastly, Edit Suggestion will help users enhance their photos by analysing the images and presenting editing suggestions in the Gallery app.
Samsung has previously addressed how it will tackle the dangers of generative AI, which you can read here. The new One UI 6.1 update is expected to arrive at the same time as Samsung’s monthly security update, which should be sometime around the end of March.
