Samsung launches S24 phone line with AI, social media features at 'Galaxy Unpacked' event
View Date:2024-12-23 20:53:00
Samsung has launched its Galaxy S24 line of phones at the "Galaxy Unpacked 2024" event in northern California on Wednesday.
The product launch in San Jose centered around the integration of artificial intelligence into the line of phones in partnership with Google. The move is an effort to create features that improve the user experience, including real-time language translation during calls, a visual search function and improved transcription capabilities.
Samsung pitched the S24 line as a social media-friendly phone, saying the line would provide faster uploads to Snapchat and Instagram. The company announced that the phone line will be the first to be able to publish HDR photos directly to Instagram. The higher end Galaxy S24 Ultra model will have a new 50-megapixel, 5x optical camera.
Samsung also said that the phone line would have 5% better battery efficiency, be made with an increased amount of recycled materials, and that the company will support seven years of security and operating system updates for the S24 line. The Ultra model will come with a titanium frame and a tougher "Gorilla Armor" display.
