Samsung has revealed a number of changes that would completely transform the audio experience on all of its smartphones. With the incorporation of 360 Audio and Auracast, among other enhancements, connection and audio immersion will be improved beyond recognition.
One of Samsung’s best features, Auracast, lets you transmit audio signals from one device to another smoothly. Auracast was first accessible on a few TVs and Galaxy Buds earphones, and it is currently arriving on Samsung tablets and phones. It is planned that the Galaxy S24, S23, Z Fold 5, Z Flip 5, and Tab S9 series will have the capability to transmit Auracast signals, as long as they have One UI 6.1 or above installed. Furthermore, a large number of Samsung smartphones will be able to receive Auracast broadcasts, such as the Galaxy S24 series, S23 series, Z Fold 5, Z Fold 4, Z Flip 5, Z Flip 4, A54 5G, M54 5G, Tab S9 series, Tab S9 FE series, and Tab Active 5 5G. use One UI 5.1.1 or later. As shown at CES 2024, Auracast’s growth portends great opportunities and a paradigm change in audio connection.
Samsung is also launching 360 Audio technology, which simulates sound coming from all directions to provide an immersive audio experience, in addition to Auracast. 360 Audio was first made accessible on phones and tablets. It is currently being added to a number of other devices, such as the Samsung TVs with Neo QLED 8K, Neo QLED 4K, OLED, and QLED versions, and the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and Buds 2. This development guarantees lifelike audio experiences for customers on several platforms, enhancing their multimedia consumption even further.
Furthermore, Samsung is optimizing the switching of device functions to enable smooth transitions between devices. Users may anticipate seamless device handover, even when switching from using Galaxy Buds with a Samsung TV to answering a call on a Galaxy phone. The fact that this capability will be available for Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, Galaxy phones, tablets, Galaxy Book series, Galaxy Watch 4, and Samsung TVs starting in February 2022 highlights Samsung’s dedication to providing a seamless ecosystem experience.
The real-time translating option between Galaxy Buds and Galaxy S24 phones is one very inventive feature. With the use of this feature, users may have easy conversations with others who speak various languages since the phone can convert speech into the user’s native language and then transmit it through the Buds, and vice versa. This smooth translation service integration demonstrates Samsung’s commitment to promoting international communication.
Samsung has stated with great excitement that these upgrades will start to roll out in late February, giving consumers instant access to these state-of-the-art capabilities. Samsung’s audio innovation is being led by Auracast and 360 Audio, so customers can expect a revolutionary audio experience that redefines immersion and breaks through barriers.
Samsung has achieved a major milestone in audio technology with the extension of Auracast and 360 Audio features across its wide range of products. Samsung’s unique features, including real-time translation, along with seamless connection and immersive soundscapes, are completely changing the way people interact with their devices. Users can expect to welcome a new era of audio brilliance with Samsung when these improvements go live.
