When it comes to travel, discovering hidden local attractions and engaging meaningfully with people and places can transform experiences into core memories. In this final edition of a three-part series on how Galaxy AI, together with Google AI’s capabilities, transforms everyday life, learn the best ways to travel smart and smoothly, with the right AI tools on hand.

From planning your itinerary to chatting with locals and uncovering the history behind iconic landmarks, here’s how you can unlock better travels with Galaxy AI.

Seamless communication for every moment

Handle calls and messages with ease using Live Translate (left) and Chat Assist (right) to communicate clearly across languages.

Now imagine you’ve just landed in Korea and need to confirm your hotel stay. You’re about to make a phone call, but the language barrier makes this simple question feel daunting. Live Translate^[1] is your secret weapon. Built into your Galaxy device[2], it allows real-time audio translation with the person you’re speaking to, accompanied by a transcript on-screen, for stress-free communication. Offering support for a total of 30 languages and dialects, Live Translate enables you to enjoy nothing but smooth conversations when you’re out exploring.

If you’re texting instead, Chat Assist^[3] enhances sentence structure, refines expressions, corrects grammatical errors and even generates complete sentences to save time while adjusting the tone to match your personal style. This makes sure you can communicate effortlessly with someone in multiple languages[4], with your message coming across as polite and culturally appropriate.

With the new One UI 6.1 update, we are bringing Galaxy AI to even more devices, expanding the premium mobile AI experiences initially introduced on the latest Galaxy S24 series, and making them available to several generations of Galaxy devices. These include the Galaxy S23 and S22 series, Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy Z Fold5 and Galaxy Z Fold4, Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Flip4, Galaxy Tab S9 and Galaxy Tab S8 series.

Accelerating Updates to Galaxy AI to Support More Languages

In Southeast Asia and Oceania, users who have Galaxy AI on their devices and speak Bahasa Indonesia, Australia English and Cantonese will be able to download these newly supported Galaxy AI languages and dialects, and experience its communication-enhancing benefits. This is in addition to languages, such as English, Chinese, Thai and Vietnamese, that are already supported in Galaxy AI.

In this new era of mobile intelligence, the smartphone has transcended mere communication, and has become the catalyst for creativity, connection, and unprecedented possibility. We have no doubt at all that the future belongs to mobile AI, and with Samsung Galaxy devices at the forefront, we cannot wait to see what users throughout Southeast Asia and Oceania will dream up, create, and achieve with the extraordinary power of Galaxy AI at their fingertips.
