The new AI features for certain lend a whole new tier of convenience to the said phones , but there ’s a caution . These Galaxy AI tricks will only be free to use until sometime next class . After that , Samsung will start charging a fee , but we do n’t know just how much it is go to be . Also , for features like Live Translate , you will require to create a Samsung account if you do n’t already have one .

Among the most notable One UI 6.1 add-on isCircle to Search . It ’s my personal favorite , as it removes the whole job of copy - and - paste and/or launching a consecrated Google Lens search in a freestanding app . All you demand to do is circle or draw around an physical object on the screen , and the internet - connect AI will find relevant information on it , let in product itemisation .

Another nerveless improver is the photo - redaction toolkit . It lets users select and move an object in a picture , dilate or adjust the angle , and even automatically give post - analysis edit suggestions . It also lets you act with the setting , bring a splash of tonic chromaticity , or have a great sentence with exposure event , among other things .

On the more practical side , you have Live Translate , which can translate both voice and text during video calls . On foldable earpiece , the experience is even more rewarding with a schism - screen door approach . On a similar note , there ’s Chat Assist , which offer translations and a tonic adjustment adroitness .

For folks struggle with a horde of disorderly notes , there ’s the ably name Note Assist . It can neatly organize haphazard notation into attractively formatted version , complete with its own robotlike summarization and translation facility in tow . Notably , this one also requires a Samsung account and limits users to notes with up to 4,000 characters per note .

If you ’re a Samsung loyalist still rocking the Galaxy S21 , Galaxy Z Flip 3 , or Galaxy Z Fold 3 , the One UI 6.1 update will sprinkle in some AI goodies as well . These telephone will be treated to visit Assist and Circle to look for feature , says Samsung , but the other AI features are reserved for newer telephone set .
