Technology giant Samsung, one of the leading names in the smartphone market, seems determined to take the portable photography experience to the next level. The company has decided to make a major expansion of its well-known application that allows professional-level camera customizations. According to the official statement, the Samsung Camera Assistant application, which we are normally accustomed to seeing only on flagship models, is now available for many more Galaxy smartphone and tablet models.

This attack created great excitement, especially among mid-segment phone users and consumers who want to produce professional content on their tablets. This strategic step by Samsung stands out as one of the newest and concrete examples of its policy of spreading flagship features to lower segments.

Deployment Begins with One UI 8.5 Update

This major expansion wave, including advanced camera settings, will be integrated with the new interface version that users are eagerly awaiting. The company will deliver Samsung Camera Assistant support to devices as a module of the stable One UI 8.5 update. With the update schedule becoming clear, it has become clear that a total of 19 popular Galaxy models will receive this professional software. In addition to the well-known A series and M series devices, the list also includes high-end Galaxy Tab series tablets.

The full list of new supported models is listed below:

• Galaxy Phones: Galaxy A34, Galaxy M34, Galaxy A35, Galaxy M35, Galaxy A36, Galaxy M36
• Galaxy Tablets: Galaxy Tab S8, S8+, S8 Ultra, Galaxy Tab S9, S9+, S9 Ultra, Tab S9 FE, Tab S9 FE+, Galaxy Tab S10, S10+, S10 Ultra, Tab S10 FE, Tab S10 FE+

What Does Samsung Camera Assistant Offer to Users?

So, why is this application so valuable? Samsung Camera Assistant promises users an in-depth control system by eliminating the boundaries of the standard camera application. Thanks to the application, you can turn off automatic lens switching completely, optimize focus priority to increase shutter speed, or adjust the softening levels in photos as you wish.

In addition, many critical menus that are normally hidden, such as automatic HDR management, timer shot count customization and HDR10 + recording ability in display mode, become active in this way. The new update based on One UI 8.5 seems to take the raw camera performance of the devices to a different dimension with software touches.
