Samsung’s first update for the Galaxy S24 series is a major one, promising a way to bring back the saturated screen look, as well as a slew of camera improvements. The firmware launched in Korea last week and is now, finally, reaching other users.
Currently, Galaxy S24 series owners in Europe are getting the update, but the rollout should go global very soon. The firmware is version S92xBXXU1AXB5 and weighs around 750 MB.
The first major update to the Galaxy S24 series
Samsung lists a generic list of improvements – device stability, new and or enhanced features, further improvements, etc, but there’s a lot going on. Inside the display mode’s advanced settings now sits a slider to adjust just how much vividness you want applied to your screen. Samsung has said that it thinks the natural tuning is superior, so this update doesn’t change it, you need to do it manually.
Here’s the full changelog, according to a Samsung moderator:
- Brighter Backlight Shots: Say goodbye to washed-out photos! High-pixel mode now shines with better balance in bright scenes.
