[NEWS] Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S24 to get AstroPortrait camera mode with update

[phillynews215]

Samsung unveiled One UI 6.1.1 with the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and the Galaxy Z Fold 6 last week. Some of those features are coming to older devices as well. One such feature is AstroPortrait, which is coming soon to the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S24.

Expert RAW update will bring AstroPortrait mode to Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S24

After announcing the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and the Galaxy Z Fold 6, Samsung announced that the AstroPortrait feature will soon be available on the Galaxy S23 and the Galaxy S24 series.

• Galaxy S23
• Galaxy S23+
• Galaxy S23 Ultra
• Galaxy S24
• Galaxy S24+
• Galaxy S24 Ultra

The new feature will be available through the Expert RAW app. Moreover, the feature may be activated after the One UI 6.1.1-based software update. Since Samsung releases x.1.1 updates only for its foldable phones and tablets, the One UI 6.1.1-based update for the Galaxy S23 and the Galaxy S24 could be labeled as One UI 6.1.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like the new feature will be released to the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and the Galaxy Z Fold 5.

What is the AstroPortrait feature on Samsung phones?

The AstroPortait mode is a part of the Expert RAW app. It allows you to capture portrait images (images where a person's face appears in focus and the background is blurred) with the night sky in the background. This feature was leaked a few weeks ago.



In such images, the sky is captured in a long exposure setting, allowing stars, planets, and other cosmic bodies to appear brighter and more clearly.

This feature debuted with the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and it looks like it is only compatible with high-end phones featuring the Exynos 2400, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 For Galaxy, or Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 For Galaxy processors.
