Samsung bolsters AI in foldable phones, health monitoring in smartwatch, ring <br /><br />Samsung Electronics unveiled its latest foldable smartphones Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 on Wednesday (July 10), making its priciest flagship model lighter and slimmer and bolstering AI functions as it challenges Apple's dominance in the premium market. <br /><br />Samsung is also offering more sophisticated health monitoring functions to drive new demand for accessories such as its smartwatch, as well as a new ring for easy health monitoring and screen control. <br /><br />Samsung offers new AI functions including a "listening mode" that provides simultaneous interpretation by voice when paired with Galaxy Buds earphones. It also worked with Alphabet's Google for new AI search functions, including showing a math problem's solution with all the steps when it is circled on the screen. <br /><br />The world's largest smartphone maker pioneered the foldable segment in 2019, but Wednesday's launch is crucial as Samsung's foldable phone shipment share fell from 81% in 2022 to 63% in 2023 with competitors surging into the market, according to data provider Canalys. <br /><br />REUTERS VIDEO <br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe <br /> <br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net <br /> <br />Follow us: <br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook <br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram <br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter <br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion <br /> <br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital <br /> <br />Check out our Podcasts: <br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify <br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts <br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic <br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer <br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein <br /> <br />#TheManilaTimes <br />#tmtnews <br />#samsung <br />#samsungzflip6 <br />#artificialintelligence
