Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced One UI 5.1, which newly unveils with Galaxy S23 series at Galaxy Unpacked 2023, will begin to rollout worldwide for other Galaxy devices starting with Galaxy S22 series[1], Z Fold4, Z Flip4, S21 series[2], and S20 series[3]. With One UI 5.1, Galaxy devices will deliver a more visually appealing mobile interface with new features that enable greater creativity and personalization for a more convenient experience overall.
“One UI 5.1 is the up-to-date example of Samsung’s commitment to provide Galaxy users with the latest innovations as soon as possible,” said Janghyun Yoon, EVP and Senior Executive, Software Office. “Over the past several weeks, we worked closely with our service providers and carrier partners to bring One UI 5.1 to current Galaxy smartphones and tablets around the world within a few short weeks of the launch of the Galaxy S23 series.”
Professional-Quality Camera and More Engaging Gallery
The release of One UI 5.1 expands upon the recently upgraded camera features announced with Galaxy S23 series. Galaxy users now have greater flexibility to create professional quality photos with Expert RAW[4] features now available directly as part of the Galaxy Camera app. Simply select “More” while taking a photo to capture high-quality shots in their raw format, without processing or compression. Additionally, enhanced AI-based Photo Remaster automatically improves deteriorated details of images by improving brightness, fine-tuning details and making color corrections even in backlit scenes. It also removes unwanted shadows and reflections for a picture-perfect photo – every time.[5]
New navigation improvements also make it easier than ever to find photos within the Gallery app and create shared family albums. Simply tap a person’s face in a photo to conduct a search for more images while the Gallery app searches for faces of loved ones to recommend for family photo albums.
A Unique Mobile Experience Personalized for Every User
Samsung has long been focused on giving Galaxy users greater control over their devices by customizing various aspects of the user interface. One UI 5.1 delivers several exciting new features that allow people to fine-tune nearly every aspect of the mobile experience – from appearance, to communications, actions, and more. Samsung introduced new features that can understand how devices are being used and make recommendations accordingly. For example, the new dynamic weather widget analyzes current conditions and creates a custom design that reflects the climate. Modes and Routines have expanded to enable custom wallpapers, ringtones, touch sensitivity and fonts that can personalize specific activities for even more convenience. One UI 5.1 also improves the Smart suggestions widget[6] by adding the ability to recommend Spotify[7] tracks and playlists based on activities, such as music for road trips or relaxing.
