Samsung adds desired Galaxy AI photo editing feature for upcoming Galaxy S handsets

By introducing text as an editing tool, Galaxy AI users can now make additive edits to their photos. For example, they can request a colour change to a cake’s icing or a complementary fork for a dessert spoon.

Even its poking and prodding now welcomes sketches, where you can roughly draw your ideas into your existing photos, and Galaxy AI will make appropriate additions. This appears to be an upgrade from the Galaxy Z Fold6’s Sketch To Image feature, which required sketching on a blank canvas.

The combination of using text and sketching means that Galaxy AI’s photo editing suite is now able to receive “multimodal input” (using different “modes” to instruct), which is also stated in the official teaser.

More crucially, we strongly believe the feature will debut on Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series handsets, as Samsung concluded its announcement by asking its users to “stay tuned” for the unveiling “next week”, which is not coincidentally also the same time as Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked keynote.
