Find out everything that Samsung teased on the Multimodal Image-Generational capabilities of the Galaxy S25 Ultra on Jan 15th.
With a mere weeks to go till Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2025, and the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra takes center stage, we’re all excited about its cutting-edge AI features. Samsung is starting to show off the details of its new Galaxy AI tech, which it calls ‘true AI companion’ that will bring a massive improvement in the user experience.
Samsung’s Plans for the Galaxy S25 Ultra: AI Capabilities, S Pen, and One UI 7
One standout feature of this new technology is that the S Pen’s drawing assistant includes a Sketch to Image functionality. This innovative tool lets the users draw out rough sketches using the S Pen or their fingers and then turn these rough shapes into elaborate images.
Users can then engage with the AI even further by adding text or even voice prompts to provide additional context. Let’s take, for instance, a simple sketch of a cat, and then type “spacesuit” and see how the AI will place the cat into a futuristic space outfit, thus bringing their imaginative concepts to life.
This is accompanied by a Galaxy S25 Ultra that will get some serious upgrades, including One UI 7. Samsung has also indicated that the revamped interface will include natural language understanding capabilities, allowing applications to understand and respond to user commands expressed in text, speech, or images. Details of these enhancements are still largely under wraps. However, Samsung has detailed scenarios in which users can interact seamlessly with an AI assistant to retrieve information and plan events.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: Improved Bixby and AI Features
The AI assistant to be rolled out will be a refined version of Bixby, with promised advanced capabilities that will feel just like those of Chat GPT and will be able to handle complex user requests with phenomenal efficiency. Teasers from Samsung even indicate that a global launch of an updated version of Bixby is on the horizon, as it has already been rolled out in China.
Samsung said these advanced AI features were designed to make the Galaxy S25 Ultra a leading smartphone in the digital world by providing creative, productive, and user-friendly innovation. Galaxy Unpacked, January 22, 2025, will reveal more insights for enthusiasts.
Samsung has already been ramping up chatter about the Galaxy S25 series in the lead-up to the event. With an announcement on just January 15, the company dropped subtle hints about new AI-powered features. The South Korean manufacturer has been steadily working on One UI 7 (Android 15).
Most recently, they have been highlighting a large AI update in the newsroom posts. It looks like this update is trying to improve the S Pen experience for people who use it,. This would affect both the Galaxy S25 Ultra and maybe the S24 Ultra. This news comes at a good time as some fans were concerned about the S Pen losing Bluetooth support.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra: Sketch to Image Feature and Compatibility With Other Samsung Smartphones
That blog post is a hint at what is to come in the form of a more advanced Sketch to Image feature. This feature will offer users more ways to express their creative ideas. In the near future, users will be able to sketch with the S Pen. They will be able to dictate a text description to the AI or even dictate a description of the drawing that they want the AI to produce an image based on. With One UI 7, Galaxy AI will not limit users to a single method. In fact, users will be able to conjure a quick sketch and a text description to visualize their concepts better.
Samsung points out that the Galaxy AI will effectively combine the drawn elements with the descriptive text to form a coherent image. The company also adds that this multimodal approach is fueled by One UI 7. It will provide an understanding of natural language through text, speech, and images. This sets the stage for what we can expect during the Galaxy S25 series launch.
The Sketch to Image feature was launched on Samsung’s latest foldable devices. However, it is now being extended to other S Pen-compatible devices. The S25 Ultra is at the forefront of this initiative, but how far other models will be supported remains unclear. The new AI functions are very dependent on the device’s hardware specifications.
Samsung’s Promo Teaser Video
Additionally, Samsung’s latest promotional graphics are related to Sketch to Image. They show the company’s determination to develop a reliable ‘true AI companion.’ A teaser video has showcased potential improvements to Bixby. They demonstrated its ability to look up specific restaurants, send them to another person, and manage calendar events seamlessly. This highlights Samsung’s strong commitment to developing AI that can fully understand and utilize natural language effectively.
The wait will be coming to an end when Samsung unveils the Galaxy S25 series on January 22, 2025. Here, they will be showing off One UI 7 and the rather exciting Galaxy AI features.
