Samsung's New Galaxy Phones with AI-Based Functions

TapTechNews July 11th news, Samsung brought new mobile phone products such as Galaxy Z Fold6/Flip6 at the GalaxyUnpacked event last night. Both new phones will have OneUI 6.1.1 based on Android 14. It is known that in this update, Samsung also brought a series of new functions based on Galaxy AI, which are expected to land on other supported Galaxy series devices in the later stage.

According to the introduction, Samsung has introduced a new function called SketchToImage. Users can draw sketches in advance on the phone with the S-Pen or by hand, and Galaxy AI will via AI and machine learning create graphic elements to make the sketches match the surrounding images or backgrounds. For example, if a user draws a microphone next to a cat's hand, the system can convert the hand-drawn microphone into a microphone real object that matches the style of the picture, making it look like the cat is really holding a microphone and singing loudly.

Samsung also launched a brand new PortraitStudio function this time, and users can convert portrait photos into different styles, such as 3D cartoon or watercolor painting. TapTechNews reminds: This function is implemented based on the cloud, so a valid internet connection and a Samsung account are required.

This function can generate 3D avatars in JPG, HEIC (HEIF), BMP and PNG formats, and users need to confirm that the uploaded picture has no transparent background.
