AI makes your smartphone even more efficient

Artificial intelligence has amazed us in a number of areas in recent years. In many industries, the use of AI has already resulted in a mind shift and allowed companies to perform certain tasks with much greater efficiency.

So it was only to be expected that Samsung and Apple would look to AI to make their smartphones even more productive. That moment has now arrived: both manufacturers are giving AI a central role in their latest devices. Apple Intelligence and Galaxy AI are both fully integrated into existing apps, making them very user-friendly. Moreover, both systems operate largely on the smartphone itself, ensuring privacy and confidentiality of sensitive business information.

Familiar and surprising innovations

Meanwhile, there is no shortage of tools and applications that demonstrate what AI can do with text and images. Both Apple and Samsung have adopted some of these features and integrated them into their devices. For example, the latest devices from both brands have AI applications that allow the user to edit and optimise photos and videos.

With Writing Tools, Apple is also integrating an intelligent writing application into its iOS 18 operating system that can be used in all apps, from Apple and other manufacturers. In addition to the standard spell checker, it has the ability to rewrite, summarise or rephrase copy in a different tone. By integrating ChatGPT into the operating system, Apple is giving users the ability to implement one of the most highly trained AI applications.

In turn, Samsung’s Galaxy AI can have conversations translated in real time. This makes talking on the phone in a language other than your native tongue much simpler, as your device takes care of the interpretation. Samsung is also introducing Circle to Search, which allows users to look up information about a word or image in Google simply by circling it on the screen with their finger while pressing the home button.

AI meets 5G

With the integration of AI, your smartphone is increasingly turning into a personal assistant that helps you perform tasks more efficiently. However, the advanced AI capabilities are currently only available on the latest models with recent software updates. For Samsung, you need an S23 or S24 series Galaxy phone, a Z Flip5/6 or Z Fold5/6, or an S9 tablet. Through your Customer Zone, you have access to the online shop where you can buy these devices, depending on commercial availability.

The above devices also use 5G. This networking technology meets all the conditions required for optimal use of the new AI applications. By choosing a Connected Mobile subscription with access to 5G Ultra, you are also choosing the following benefits:

1. Higher speeds
   Compared to 4G, 5G offers much faster download speeds. That means AI applications, which often process and transmit large data volumes, can work more quickly and efficiently.

2. Lower latency
   Lower latency means there is less delay between sending and receiving data. AI applications that require real-time processing, such as speech recognition, achieve much better results this way.

3. Better connectivity
   5G networks can support more devices simultaneously without compromising network speed or reliability, which is crucial for many AI applications.

4. Higher bandwidth
   The increased bandwidth of 5G makes it possible to send and receive larger data volumes. This is especially useful for AI applications that use high-definition video, images or other heavy files.
