Designed to empower everyday experience, from barrier-free communication to creativity to the power for more possibilities, Galaxy AI transforms the iconic S series for the future.

 

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today unveiled the Galaxy S24 Ultra, Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24, unleashing new mobile experiences with Galaxy AI[i][ii]. Galaxy S series leads the way into a new era that will forever change how mobile devices empower users. AI amplifies nearly every experience on the Galaxy S24 series, from enabling barrier-free communication with intelligent text and call translations, to maximising creative freedom with Galaxy’s ProVisual Engine, to setting a new standard for search that will change how Galaxy users discover the world around them.

 

“The Galaxy S24 series transforms our connection with the world and ignites the next decade of mobile innovation,” said TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics. “Galaxy AI is built on our innovation heritage and deep understanding of how people use their phones. We’re excited to see how our users around the world empower their everyday lives with Galaxy AI to open up new possibilities.”

 

Make Everyday Experiences Epic

Galaxy AI introduces meaningful intelligence aimed at enhancing every part of life, especially the phone’s most fundamental role: communication. When you need to communicate defying language barriers, Galaxy S24 makes it easier than ever. Chat with a student or colleague from abroad. Book a reservation while on vacation in another country. It’s all possible with Live Translate[iii], two-way, real-time voice and text translations of phone calls within the native Phone app. No third-party apps are required.

 

With Interpreter[iv], live conversations can be instantly translated on a split-screen view so people standing opposite each other can read a text transcription of what the other person has said. It even works without cellular data or Wi-Fi.

 

For messages and other compatible apps, Chat Assist can help perfect conversational tones to ensure communication sounds as it was intended: like a polite message to a co-worker or a short and catchy phrase for a social media caption[v]. AI built into Samsung Keyboard can also translate messages, emails and more in real-time in 13 languages[vi].

 

Organisation also gets a big boost with Note Assist[vii] in Samsung Notes, featuring AI-generated summaries, template creation that streamlines notes with pre-made formats, and cover creation to make notes easy to spot with a brief preview. For voice recordings, even when there are multiple speakers, Transcript Assist[viii] uses AI and Speech-to-Text technology to help transcribe, summarise and even translate recordings into select languages.

 

Communication isn’t the only way Galaxy S24 takes the fundamental benefits of the phone into the future. Online search has transformed nearly every aspect of life. Galaxy S24 marks a milestone as the first Galaxy phone to debut intuitive, gesture-driven Circle to Search[ix] with Google. To give Galaxy users an incredible new tool, Galaxy turned to the worldwide leader of search, Google, and opened up new forms of discovery with a simple gesture. With a long press on the home button, you can circle, highlight, scribble on, or tap virtually anything on Galaxy S24’s screen to see helpful, high-quality search results. If you see a beautiful landmark in the background of your friend’s social media post, or a surprising fun fact on YouTube Shorts, you can quickly learn more – without having to leave the app that you’re in. It’s that easy. And that epic.

 

 

Unleash Creativity to Discover the World in New Ways

Galaxy S24 series’ ProVisual Engine[x] is a comprehensive suite of AI-powered tools that transform image capturing abilities and maximise creative freedom every step of the way, from setting up a shot all the way to sharing it on social. Gone are shaky, pixelated images taken from far away. 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 10x[xi] magnification thanks to Adaptive Pixel Sensor. Capture clear images from far away by zooming in up to 100x with enhanced digital zoom.

 

With upgraded Nightography capabilities, photos and videos shot on Galaxy S24 Space Zoom are brilliant in any conditions, even when zoomed in. Capture more light in dim conditions with Galaxy S24 Ultra’s larger pixel size, now 1.4 μm, which is 60% bigger[xii]  compared to the previous model. Blur is reduced on Galaxy S24 Ultra with wider optical image stabiliser (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 analyses gyro information to distinguish between the filmer’s movement and the subjects. 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 users to make simple edits like object, reflection, and shadow eraser, re-compose, and remaster photos. For easier and more efficient optimisations, Edit Suggestion[xiii] uses AI to suggest tweaks for each photo. To give users even more creative control and freedom, Generative Edit[xiv] can fill in parts of an image background with generative AI. When a picture is crooked, AI can help fill in the borders. When an object needs to be slightly moved to be in the perfect position, AI can help 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.

 

 

To ensure every image stun at every stage, Super HDR reveals lifelike previews before the shutter is ever pressed. While capturing memories is an essential phone feature, sharing memories with the world is just as meaningful. Now, select third-party social apps make the most of Galaxy’s AI-powered camera system. Premium Galaxy S series camera features now integrate directly with mobile apps, like Instagram, in HDR to level up social sharing[xv]. When it’s time to find an image in Gallery or on your go-to social app, photos are also shown in Super HDR for a more lifelike range of brightness, colour, and contrast, by analysing highlighted section of the images.

 

Galaxy’s Most Intelligent Experience, Powered by Premium Performance

As AI becomes a more prominent part of everyday life, performance power must excel to meet the demands: Gaming. Heavy-duty video recording and editing. Jumping between five apps as you plan a trip. Whatever the task, Galaxy S24 provides an incredible experience thanks to enhancements in its chipset[xvi], display and more. Every Galaxy S24 Ultra is equipped with Snapdragon® 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform for Galaxy. Optimised especially for Galaxy users, this chipset delivers remarkable NPU improvement for incredibly efficient processing. In all three Galaxy S24 models, 1-120 Hz adaptive refresh rates also improve performance efficiency.

 

Galaxy gaming is more powerful thanks to hardware and software improvements. Galaxy S24 Ultra boast an optimal thermal control system with a 1.9 times larger vapour chamber[xvii], improving device surface temperature while also maximising sustained performance power. Ray tracing enables life-like visuals with superior shadow and reflection effects. And through collaboration with industry-leading gaming partners, Galaxy S24 let users enjoy more optimised popular global mobile games.

 

Visuals are more vibrant and captivating on the brightest Galaxy display ever[xviii]. Galaxy S24 reaches up to 2,600nit peak brightness and delivers improved outdoor visibility with Vision Booster.

 

 

On the display, Corning® Gorilla® Armor[xix] on the Galaxy S24 Ultra is optically enhanced and demonstrates superior durability against damage caused by everyday scratches.

 

Across the Galaxy S24 series, design enhancements with slimmer and even bezels make it easier to immerse in any viewing experience and enable larger screen sizes on Galaxy S24+’s 6.7-inch and Galaxy S24’s 6.2-inch displays within the same size specifications. Galaxy S24 Ultra has a 6.8-inch flatter display, optimised not just for viewing but also for productivity. Plus, Galaxy S24+ now supports the same level of QHD+ found on Galaxy S24 Ultra.

 

Advanced Security and Privacy Empowers User Choice and Trust

Secured by Samsung Knox, Galaxy’s multi-layer security platform, Galaxy S24 can help safeguard critical information and protects against vulnerabilities with end-to-end secure hardware, real-time threat detection and collaborative protection.

 

The Knox Matrix[xx] vision of a secure, connected and password-less future is also advanced with passkeys. Passkeys enable convenient and secure access to a user’s registered websites and apps across all their trusted devices through digital credentials, helping to protect against phishing attacks. Enhanced Data Protection offers end-to-end encryption when users backup, sync or restore their data with Samsung Cloud, allowing Galaxy S24 users to connect to other devices while staying synchronised and secure. This ensures the data can only be encrypted or decrypted on a user’s devices. And if access to a trusted device is lost, a recovery code can help prevent loss of data. Galaxy S24 is also protected with Samsung’s expansive list of innovative security and privacy features including Knox Vault, Security & Privacy Dashboard, Auto Blocker, Secure Wi-Fi, Private Share, Maintenance Mode and more.

 

Precision Technology and Elegance in Every Detail

Galaxy S24 Ultra is the first-ever Galaxy phone to feature a titanium frame[xxi]. Galaxy S24 Ultra’s thinner body enables better on-the-go experience with more comfortable grip. On Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24, a streamlined One-mass design satisfies a more aesthetic standard with seamless connection between the device’s rear cover and side frame. The Galaxy S24 series comes in Earth mineral-inspired colour tones. All three models will come with additional colours available online only on Samsung.com.

 

On Galaxy S24 Ultra, colours[xxii] include: Titanium Grey, Titanium Black, Titanium Violet, and Titanium Yellow. Online exclusive colours include Titanium Blue, Titanium Green and Titanium Orange.

 

On Galaxy S24+ and Galaxy S24 colours include: Onyx Black, Marble Grey, Cobalt Violet, and Amber Yellow. Online exclusive colours include Sapphire Blue, Jade Green and Sandstone Orange.
