New AI Image Editing Tools

Samsung is adding more AI image editing tools to its next batch of Galaxy smartphones.

A series of short video teasers released today shows how users will be able to quickly and creatively edit photos with AI.

The Korean tech giant announced in a quick press blast on Tuesday that “the latest Galaxy smartphone” will have access to a new, unified suite of AI‑powered editing tools. While Samsung didn’t specifically mention the S26 in its announcement, it’s a safe bet that the feature will debut on those devices.

The company is widely expected to announce three new Galaxy S26 phones at a Galaxy Unpacked event next week, making this a flagship feature for the new devices. Galaxy phones already utilize Google Gemini, which is regarded as a top generative AI photo editor — thanks in part to Nano Banana — see details here.

Based on the teasers, the ability to capture and edit photos and videos will be combined into a single app experience, so users no longer have to switch between multiple apps for editing. Examples shown include turning daytime photos into nighttime shots and merging multiple photos into one.

Samsung said it will expand upon this feature at Galaxy Unpacked. The press release was brief and somewhat vague, so we’ll have to wait for more details at the event.
