Back in February, Samsung Mobile boss TM Roh teased that more Galaxy AI features are on the horizon for compatible Galaxy devices, and now we’ve got a better idea of what one of these new Galaxy AI features might be. According to serial Samsung leaker Ice Universe, “the key functional innovation of One UI 6.1.1 will be video AI.” One UI 6.1.1 refers to the next major Samsung software update, and while Ice Universe doesn’t elaborate on what “video AI” means, specifically, there’s a good chance that the term refers to either a generative AI-powered video editing tool, or some form of AI-powered video shooting assistance. Ice Universe’s claim comes just hours after Samsung’s official X account again confirmed that new Galaxy AI features are in development: “Our collaboration with Google continues [...] Exciting things are coming up for the future of AI-powered Android and Galaxy experiences,” the company writes in a new post. Our collaboration with @Google continues as we work towards a shared vision of delivering the best Android ecosystem of products and services. Exciting things are coming up for the future of AI-powered Android and Galaxy experiences. https://t.co/QNvFEiSq9uApril 25, 2024 See more At present, Samsung’s suite of Galaxy AI features includes Generative Edit, which lets you resize, remove or reposition objects in an image, and Instant Slow-Mo, which uses AI-powered frame generation to let you turn almost any regular video into a slow-motion video. Might this mystery “video AI” feature build on those creative tools by letting you retroactively edit the composition of videos? Or perhaps Samsung is preparing to roll out a full-blown text-to-video generator à la OpenAI's Sora. Generative Edit lets you resize, remove or reposition objects in an image (Image credit: Samsung) We won’t know for sure until Samsung confirms more details, but the company could use its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event to showcase this rumored One UI 6.1.1 feature (since One UI 6.1 was unveiled at Samsung’s previous Galaxy Unpacked event in January). The latest leaks suggest that the next Galaxy Unpacked event will take place on July 10, so hopefully we don’t have too long to wait. In any case, Samsung’s assertion that new Galaxy AI features are on the way will come as a welcome reminder to Samsung Galaxy S24 owners of their new phones’ longevity. Samsung is committing to seven generations of OS updates and seven years of security updates for every phone in the Galaxy S24 line, but it’s exciting to hear that these phones will continue to be improved, rather than just maintained. Perhaps this mystery “video AI'' feature will come to a handful of previous-generation Galaxy phones, too. Samsung Galaxy S23 phones received every Galaxy AI feature two months after they debuted on the Galaxy S24 line, so we’re inclined to believe that the same will be true of any new Galaxy AI features.

If you’re a Samsung Galaxy S23 owner then your phone might get a major update on March 28, as following news that Galaxy AI would start rolling out to the Galaxy S23 line in late March, Samsung Korea and Samsung China have both now announced March 28 as the big day. These announcements were spotted by SamMobile, though as we haven’t heard this date specified for other countries yet it’s possible that S23 owners in other regions might be waiting a little longer. Still, we’d think most owners should have Galaxy AI on their phones by the end of the month, so keep an eye out for the update from March 28 onwards. This Galaxy AI update is coming as part of One UI 6.1, and it’s launching for all Samsung Galaxy S23 models, so the Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus, Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, and Samsung Galaxy S23 FE. We know that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5, and the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 series will also be getting Galaxy AI, but they weren’t mentioned in the March 28 announcement, so they might be waiting a little longer. A whole suite of AI features As for what the update consists of, One UI 6.1 is packed full of new AI features, including Generative Edit (which allows you to move and resize objects in photos), and Circle to Search (which lets you circle something in an image or video to search the web for it). There’s also Note Assist, Browsing Assist, and Transcript Assist, which can transcribe recordings with AI, summarize and translate recordings and notes, and summarize online articles. Plus, there’s Chat Assist, which can adjust the tone of your messages or translate them to another language, and Live Translate, which can provide voice and text translations of phone calls. Similarly, there’s Interpreter, which can deliver text translations of live conversations. This is set to be one of the biggest software updates yet for the Samsung Galaxy S23 series, and might even end up being bigger than the update to Android 15 we’ll likely see towards the end of the year.
