Samsung Shares How the Galaxy S24 Can Offer More Natural Portrait Photos
On the official Community Forum website, Samsung has shared details on how the Galaxy S24 series takes better portrait shots. According to the company, the new smartphones utilize improved AI algorithms. Paired with better processing power, they can properly detect the subjects within the photos and create a better depth effect.
The Galaxy S24 phones also apply a blur effect on the objects that are in front of the main subject.
