Get acquainted with Galaxy AI

The headline feature of Samsung's new S line is its suite of AI features, which Samsung has dubbed Galaxy AI. The primary AI features are:

Live Translate: Allows you and someone speaking another language to both speak in your native tongues and get on-the-fly translations.

Note Assist: Leverages AI to improve the tone and legibility of your writing.
Generative Edit: Assists in editing photos.

Chat Assist: Translates messages and helps you with tone.

Notice the faster performance and extended battery life of the US S24 models with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 mobile platform. Comparing the Gen 3 SoC to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor found in the Galaxy S23, performance and power efficiency are increased. Nevertheless, the 8GB LPDDR5X RAM found in Samsung's most recent flagship is the same as that of its predecessor. Positively, Samsung increased the battery capacity from 3,900mAh in the S23 to 4,000mAh.

Use Circle to Search to find anything on your screen

Samsung and Google collaborated to create a brand-new Circle to Search function for the S24. It lets you draw a circle around a portion of a picture or video with your finger. After that, Google displays search results for the items you highlighted. If Circle to Search functions as planned, it's a simple method to identify everything from plants to items, as well as locate address information and reviews for companies that appear in videos.

Get the perfect photo with improved AI image processing and Instant Slo-mo

The S24's cameras are identical to those of the S23, but there is a bright side: the upgraded chipset should result in better picture editing capabilities. AI is also being used widely here, from better picture and video previews (made possible by Super HDR) to smarter editing, where AI will remove undesired reflections or fill in any gaps created by shifting photo components.

7 years of updates mean there's no rush to upgrade to the S25

Samsung substantially extended the number of years during which software upgrades were provided. The software support for the whole Samsung Galaxy S24 family will be available for at least seven years after introduction, as opposed to the four years that were guaranteed with the S23.

Other features

The S24 has an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor and supports an eSIM or two SIM cards.
