Samsung is set to unveil its latest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S24, on January 17, 2024, at a press event in San Jose, California. The Galaxy S24 series will feature a new suite of AI-powered features that will enable users to do more with their phones, such as real-time language translation, voice-to-text, text summarization, image expansion, and more.
Galaxy AI is Samsung’s answer to the growing demand for artificial intelligence (AI) applications on mobile devices. Galaxy AI will leverage the powerful processors of the Galaxy S24 series, either the Exynos 2400 or the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, both of which have on-device AI processing capabilities. This means that the Galaxy S24 phones will be able to run AI apps on the device itself, without relying on cloud servers or internet connection.
This will offer several benefits to users, such as faster performance, lower latency, better privacy, and lower battery consumption. Galaxy AI will also enable users to access AI features even when they are offline or in areas with poor network coverage.
