Samsung has put a lot of emphasis on the translation capabilities of Galaxy AI. It seems that the company is developing a new translation feature that takes advantage of both screens of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6.
On Pixel Food launched last year, Google introduced a new feature called “Translator Mode,” which allows users to translate text and voice using both the main screen and the external screen. In other words, users can have a multilingual two-way conversation without having to rotate the phone. This is such a good idea that Samsung wants to copy it.
According to leaked marketing documents posted by @evleaks, Samsung will update the Translator Assistant, which was introduced with the Galaxy S24 series. The new version opens up the possibility of two-way chat using both the main and outer screens of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 to show translations to both parties.
Samsung explains the new capability as follows:
"Are you traveling and want to talk to locals? Whether you want to express yourself, listen to an international conference in a foreign language, or understand your tour guide: the interpreter assistant translates in real-time."
Samsung's documents and notes show that the new capability only works in Flex Mode as well as Chat Mode. By comparison, the Pixel Fold only requires users to unfold the phone.
Samsung will officially launch the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 on July 10 along with many new Galaxy AI features.
