JAKARTA - Samsung has launched the Galaxy S26 series globally. This high-end phone comes with many improvements, even with new features that can support user activities.

From the many new features that are present in the Galaxy S26 series, there are some interesting features that are very interesting, such as horizon lock in SuperSteady mode to Now Nudge. Here are some of the new features.

Night Photography and Nightography Enhancement

The Galaxy S26 Ultra's camera now offers a wider lens opening to capture more light. This keeps photos clear even if users are shooting in low-light conditions.

The Nightography feature also gets an upgrade to produce better video footage in dark environments. Users can now zoom in or zoom out in dark environments without worrying about changing the video color tone.

SuperSteady with Horizontal Lock

Samsung already has SuperSteady in the previous generation. However, in the Galaxy S26 series, this feature comes with two modes, namely standard SuperSteady or SuperSteady with horizontal lock support.

The second mode can maintain the stability of the image in various conditions. In fact, when the device is rotated or moved very quickly, the video result will remain stable in the horizontal format.

Fast Advice via Now Nudge

Samsung introduced the Now Nudge feature which serves to provide real-time suggestions to users. This system is able to recognize the context of a conversation, for example by suggesting an image from the gallery when a friend asks for a photo of a pet cat.

This Artificial Intelligence (AI) based feature is also very useful in managing daily schedules. Now Nudge will check the user's Schedule automatically through the calendar and suggest the right answer when friends invite to play or vacation.

More Intuitive Bixby Transformation

Bixby virtual assistant is now upgraded to a much more natural conversation-based agent. Users can change various settings without having to memorize the menu specifically because they can order Bixby.

This improvement allows interactions with devices to feel faster and more responsive. Users can even ask commands in everyday language and Bixby will perform the technical tasks ordered.
