Taking place in the evening, we were among the first to get hands-on experience with the innovative S24 Series. The spotlight of this series lies in its robust integration of Artificial Intelligence, with one standout feature being Live Translate – Voice and Text Translation, facilitating seamless two-way real-time communication.

Blur is minimized on the Galaxy S24 Ultra with wider optical image stabilizer (OIS) angles and improved hand-shake compensation.
