In the world of artificial intelligence (AI), where companies innovate with newly creative features that leverage the usage of AI and where people use such features to do things that weren’t possible in the older days (such as generating articles from just a heading or generating pictures from just a description), Samsung jumped to the AI party with their Samsung Galaxy S24 (base, plus, and Ultra variants). This phone featured various Galaxy AI features, such as removing unwanted objects from photos, adding missing parts, generating a summary from text, and Circle to Search.
This feature set was teased in various Galaxy S24 advertisements in both the digital form (YouTube and so on) and in the televised form (such as television channels). However, things are about to take a nice turn!
Today, March 28th, Samsung will release the Galaxy AI features to their 2023 flagship devices soon. However, this is an update to One UI 6.1, which is currently available in the following devices:
- Galaxy S24 (no seamless updates…)
- Galaxy A55 (with seamless updates!)
The following Samsung devices will get One UI 6.1 with the Galaxy AI features:
- Galaxy S23 (base, plus, and Ultra)
- Galaxy S23 Fan Edition (FE)
- Galaxy Tab S9
- Galaxy Z Fold/Flip 5
There may be older devices that will probably get some of the Galaxy AI features, such as the 2022 flagship S22 devices. This is being tested internally, and the list of devices that will get One UI 6.1 with Galaxy AI may change once Samsung finishes testing the AI features on the older devices internally.
Once Samsung confirms the release for older devices, such as the Tab S8 and the Z Fold/Flip 4 devices, we’ll post a follow-up to let you know which device will get One UI 6.1 with AI and which ones will get the same One UI 6.1 without AI.
Side note: Galaxy A55 doesn’t have Galaxy AI bundled with One UI 6.1 that was released with this device, but it has only one AI feature: Advanced AI Image Signal Processing (ISP). It produces stunning low-light images never seen before on the Galaxy A series. In contrast, Galaxy A55 comes with seamless updates, while Galaxy S24 and all older devices don’t unless Samsung releases an update that introduces it, which is unlikely to happen.
Are you excited to use Galaxy AI on your older flagship devices?
