Creative Studio

A feature that provides generative image creation tools for producing AI-generated images, stickers, and wallpapers. Users can create images from text prompts or photos from the Gallery, for example by turning pictures into stickers that can be used as custom emojis in messaging apps. The feature also supports creating wallpapers and other visual content. It can be accessed through the Edge Panel or the Creative Studio app.^[40]

Sketch to Image

An image generation feature that creates visual outputs from user-drawn sketches. It uses generative AI to modify or complete the input and is compatible with tools such as the S Pen. On the Galaxy S25 Ultra, the integrated S Pen can be used to sketch or refine inputs directly. The feature is available in apps including Samsung Gallery and Samsung Notes.^[41][42][43]

Portrait Studio

A portrait creation feature that generates stylized images from photos or sketches using AI-based image processing. Users can apply effects such as lighting or background adjustments through touch or S Pen input. It can be used together with the Best Face tool, which captures multiple images in succession and enables the selection of preferred facial expressions. The feature is accessible in the Samsung Gallery app.^{[42][44][45][46]}

Generative Edit

An image editing function that allows users to remove objects, expand backgrounds, or resize content using automated generation tools. Modified areas are filled in algorithmically based on surrounding visual context. Related software options such as Expert RAW and Enhance-X offer additional processing functions, including sharpening, noise reduction, and camera shift correction. Hardware specifications also affect the use of generative editing; for example, the Galaxy S25 Ultra includes a 200 MP wide lens, a 50 MP ultrawide lens, and both 10 MP and 50 MP telephoto lenses with up to 5× optical zoom, which can provide higher-resolution source material for editing.^{[47][48][49][50][51]}

Best Face

A photo optimization feature that automatically selects and composites the most favorable facial expressions of subjects captured in a motion photo. The feature analyzes multiple frames taken in quick succession and identifies faces with open eyes, smiles, or minimal motion blur to generate a single improved image. Processing uses AI-based face detection and frame analysis to compare frames. Best Face can be accessed in the Samsung Gallery app through the “Choose best face” option. ^[52][53]

Audio Eraser

A post-processing feature that allows users to remove background noise or specific audio elements—such as voices, wind, or crowd sounds—from recorded videos. It uses AI-based audio separation to isolate and reduce unwanted sound components. While primarily software-driven, supporting systems such as the ProVisual Engine improve visual clarity and reduce noise in source video, indirectly enhancing audio separation accuracy. The feature is available in the Samsung Gallery app and can be accessed during video editing.^[54]

Auto Trim

A video editing function that detects and selects portions of footage based on visual or contextual patterns, enabling the assembly of shorter clips without manual editing. It is supported by AI-powered video analytics that assess scene composition and motion. High-resolution recording modes, such as 8K video capture, provide additional flexibility for cropping and reframing segments during editing. Optical Zoom systems included in the S25 series also contribute to framing inputs.^[55][56]

Instant Slo-Mo

A post-processing function that generates slow-motion playback by interpolating additional frames between existing ones. It is activated during video playback in the Gallery app by tapping and holding the screen, without the need for prior selection of a specific recording mode. AI frame interpolation, analyzes consecutive frames and predicts intermediate frames, allowing smooth slow-motion effects even for standard recordings captured at 30 or 60 frames per second. Native high-frame-rate recording, available up to 960fps, enables feature such as Super Slo-Mo. Instant Slo-Mo may be used with Log video, which captures a flat profile for dynamic range, and Galaxy Log, Samsung's AI-based grading tool. These functions allow additional control in post-production.^{[57][58][59][60]}
