From Fix it Later to Filter it Now

Starting with the Galaxy S26 Series, Audio Eraser has evolved into a live audio experience.

This advancement shifts the focus from post-recording edits to real-time audio management.

By integrating an AI sound engine with advanced sound separation technology, the Galaxy S26 Series allows you to instantly adjust and control sound as it occurs. This ensures a clear, immersive listening experience across various streaming platforms by effectively neutralising distracting background noise.
