Hello, Samsung Community Members!
This is your Camcyclopedia Expert.
Previously, I had introduced to you the convenient usability and the various selfie experience you can enjoy in Galaxy Z Fold7/Flip7.
Thanks to your interest and support, the features in Z Fold7/Z Flip7 have been applied to previously released models through the One UI 8.0 update, and I would like to introduce them to you.
We tried to support as many models as possible, however, please understand that some features are not supported due to performance constraints.
We hope you enjoy the new filming and editing experience as much as you have waited for it. Enjoy recording your happy memories more easily than before!
For more information, please refer to the article below.
※ SW update schedule for each model is different, and such updates will be applied upon SW distribution.

■ Overlay translation (Image translation)
1. Improved size of translation text overlay
- In order to minimize the issue of the size of the overlaid text becoming smaller when the length of the translated text is longer than the original, we have improved the system to maintain the original text size as much as possible to lessen the sense of incongruity before and after translation.
※ Supported models: Galaxy S22/S23/S24/S25 series, Galaxy S23 FE/S24 FE/S25 FE, Galaxy S25 Edge, Galaxy Z fold 4/5/6, Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, Galaxy Z Flip 4/5/6, Galaxy Tab S8/S9/S10/S11 series
2. Improved overlapping issue of translation text with background
- While optimizing size by expanding the translation text area, we have improved it to recognize the background and place the translation text so that the text and background do not overlap.
※ Supported models: Galaxy S22/S23/S24/S25 series, Galaxy S23 FE/S24 FE/S25 FE, Galaxy S25 Edge, Galaxy Z fold 4/5/6, Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, Galaxy Z Flip 4/5/6, Galaxy Tab S8/S9/S10/S11 series

On the whole, One UI 8 is disaster in terms of camera performance
Look at the 2 images. 1st one with One UI 7 and 2nd one is with one UI 8. No more explanation required to showcase the poor performance
