Unlocking Unique Features: What Samsung Galaxy S24's AI Does That iPhones Can't—Let's Dive In
The marvels of AI are truly extraordinary, and the Galaxy S24 is a shining example of this with its array of Galaxy AI features. While technically there's only one AI-assisted feature specifically tied to video recording, called Instant Slow-mo, it's precisely the kind of tool that proves its worth after the fact.
Unlike being confined to the dedicated slow-motion mode of the Galaxy S24, Instant Slow-mo lets users add a slow-motion effect to any video recorded on the phone. This feature embraces a shoot-now-worry-later mindset, recognizing that candid moments can happen unexpectedly. With Instant Slow-mo, you can record seamlessly and revisit later to slow down the specific part of the clip you desire.
In our exploration of the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, we were pleasantly surprised by how convincingly it pulls off this magic, almost resembling a dedicated slow-motion video. The best part is its compatibility with all resolutions and frame rates, supporting all three versions of the S24.
We can't help but wish that the iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max had a feature like this. However, it seems we might have to wait for the iPhone 16 series for such a treat.
What we particularly appreciate about Instant Slow-mo is its intuitive application. Here's a simple guide on how to use it:
1. Preview the video you’ve recorded: After capturing your video, either preview it directly through the camera app or enter the gallery. Select the video and press play to watch.
2. Long press the portion you want in slow motion: When you reach the desired point in the video, long press on the screen to initiate the Instant Slow-mo effect. Release the press when you want it to end. A quick animation indicates the effect, and the video slows down as you continue to press.
3. Tap the Edit icon, then select Adjust Speed: After previewing, tap the Edit button and choose Adjust Speed. Depending on the video's frame rate, you can select different speeds, such as ½ and ¼. You can also opt to speed up the video.
4. Manually trim where you want Instant Slow-mo to happen: A unique feature of Instant Slow-mo is the ability to manually adjust when it takes place. In the preview timeline, you'll see trimming bars that can be adjusted to pinpoint the start and end of the slow-motion effect.
5. Save or Save as a copy:Once satisfied, save the video. We recommend using the Save as a copy option by tapping the three dots in the upper right corner to keep the original version unaltered.
Beyond Instant Slow-mo, there are other practical Galaxy AI features. Circle to Search enhances phone searching by providing results without exiting the current app. Additionally, Generative Edit offers convincing photo editing, allowing you to resize and move subjects while the AI fills in the gaps. The Galaxy S24 series may just redefine how we interact with our smartphones.
