Here’s what you can expect after updating to One UI 6.1.1

Although the One UI 6.1.1 update doesn’t bring user interface changes, it adds numerous Galaxy AI features. For starters, One UI 6.1.1 gives users the ability to replace Google Assistant with Gemini. The “Composer” feature now enables Galaxy AI to write emails, and comments with the option to choose a tone for the messages.

That’s not all, the “Suggested Replies” feature lets Galaxy Z Flip users take advantage of Galaxy AI to get context-based responses for messages received on the cover screen. With One UI 6.1.1, you’ll also get the “Interpreter” feature on the foldable Android smartphones. The feature is meant to break the communication barrier between different language-speaking individuals.

Talking of creativity, you can make the most out of features like “Portrait Studio” and “Sketch to Image.” As the name suggests, Portrait Studio turns images of people into different types of portraits. The latter is handy to turn amateur sketches into a fine piece of “art” with the magic of AI. Well, these are just a few Galaxy AI features coming with One UI 6.1.1, there’re plenty more. Moreover, this is a big update that follows the August 2024 security patch received by the Galaxy Z Fold 4 last month.
