Samsung has started rolling out the April 2024 security update to the Galaxy S24, and it includes camera improvements. Do note that the rollout started for the entire Galaxy S24 series, but only in South Korea and Europe, for now.
April 2024 security update starts rolling out to the Galaxy S24 series with camera fixes
Needless to say, this is quite early for an April update, as we’re still in March at this point. It’s not even the last day of March or anything like that, we have almost a week to go at this point. This update will spread to more markets soon.
As already mentioned, the update is rolling out to all three Galaxy S24 handsets. The firmware version is S92xNKSU1AXCA in Korea and S92xBXXU1AXCA in Europe, and the download size is 797.83MB and 920.97MB, respectively. So it’s not a small update by any means, and we presume that those camera updates are the main reason why.
At this point in time, Samsung did not reveal what exact security vulnerabilities it patched up. The camera improvements have been shared, though, via the Samsung Community Forum. Those improvements line up with a recent report revealing what’s coming.
Quite a few camera improvements are included here
Samsung improved the white balance accuracy and exposure when it comes to the camera. In addition to that, the low-light image quality has been improved too. The company also fixed up the color accuracy in the ExpertRAW camera app.
If you’ve been having issues with text clarity in high-zoom shots, don’t fret, as that should be better now too. The last entry says that support for videos with 480×480 pixels resolution in the Instant Slow Mo feature has been added.
This update is rolling out in stages in Korea and Europe. More markets are expected to follow in the coming days/weeks. Considering the size of the update, it may not be a bad idea to update via a WiFi connection, rather than mobile data. It’s up to you, though.
