Samsung has officially released the One UI 6.1.1 update for the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and the Galaxy Z Flip 5. This update, launched on September 5, first reached the Galaxy S24 series, and now users are getting access to it. The rollout marks another significant step in Samsung’s continued efforts to enhance the functionality and user experience of its foldable devices.
One UI 6.1.1 is Samsung’s latest software update, bringing new features and refinements to several flagship devices. The update originally debuted with the release of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6 in July 2023. While it includes a few minor changes to the user interface, the most notable additions revolve around Galaxy AI features.
Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 Users Get the One UI 6.1.1 Update
South Korea is the first market to receive the One UI 6.1.1 update. Users can identify the update by build number F946NKSU3DXH9. To download, go to the phone’s Settings menu, select “Software update,” and tap the “Download and install” button.
Samsung plans to expand the update to other regions soon. There is no confirmed timeline for countries outside South Korea. However, users in Canada and Europe may see the update in the coming weeks.
One UI 6.1.1 brings several exciting features that enhance user interaction and improve the AI capabilities of Samsung’s devices. One standout feature is automatic voice language recognition. This tool allows users to record voice memos or notes, and the phone will automatically detect and convert the speech into the user’s preferred language. This is particularly useful for international users and professionals who communicate in multiple languages.
Another key feature of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 One UI 6.1.1 update is improved image text translation. Now, when browsing the web with Samsung Internet, the device can detect and translate any text embedded within images, adding a layer of convenience for those browsing foreign websites. This capability also extends to translating PDF files and other documents without requiring conversion to another format.
AI Innovations in One UI 6.1.1
Samsung’s focus on AI innovation is evident in the One UI 6.1.1 update. The company introduced Portrait Studio, which uses AI to improve the quality of portrait images, making it easier to capture professional-looking photos. Additionally, the update offers a feature called Sketch to Image, which allows users to create detailed, professional images from simple sketches. With AI assisting in this process, users can convert their ideas into polished visuals without needing extensive design skills.
Another AI-driven feature introduced in this update is the real-time call language translator. This function allows users to translate spoken conversations in third-party apps, such as WhatsApp, into their preferred language during voice calls. This feature aims to bridge communication gaps, especially in cross-cultural conversations.
The One UI 6.1.1 update has just begun rolling out, but Samsung has not provided an exact timeline for when it will be available in all regions. With the rollout starting in South Korea, other regions should receive the update in the coming weeks, with broader availability expected by the end of September.
