【Watch A Taste of Experience Online】

It's no secret that Samsung's upcoming S-series smartphone flagships will heavily lean on Watch A Taste of Experience OnlineAI smarts. Samsung calls the S24 phones, likely to be unveiled on January 17 during Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event, the "AI phones."

Now, however, thanks to a series of what appear to be leaked marketing materials from Samsung (Evan Blass via 9to5Google), we know a little bit more about the phones' specs, and one particularly interesting feature.

The feature, called "Circle to Search," appears to be powered by Google's artificial intelligence smarts. The leaked description says "search any image, video, or text on your screen. Circle, highlight, scribble, or tap to pinpoint what you’re curious about, no screenshots necessary." We'd have to try it out to see how it works, but it sounds like a cool upgrade to Google Lens, which is a Google app that allows you to search with your phone's camera.

Other AI-powered features that are coming include live translation of phone calls, better night-time zoom (again, thanks to AI smarts), and an AI-powered "Note Assist" feature in Samsung Notes.

Some of the specs have leaked as well. Apparently, the Samsung S24 Ultra will have a flat, 6.8-inch display and a 200-megapixel main camera. The Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus will have a 6.7-inch display and a 50-megapixel main camera, and the Samsung Galaxy S24 will have a 6.2-inch display with a 50-megapixel main camera.
