what's up YouTube jeff back again today
0:01
another very exciting Samsung video for
0:03
you guys and today we're going to be
0:04
talking about the latest leaked build of
0:06
1 UI 8.0 which brings two new features I
0:09
want to discuss that have been talked
0:10
about over on X and I tried them out
0:12
there's a little bit of unreliability
0:13
because it seems that they might be
0:15
region specific um or app specific but
0:18
one of them is advanced earthquake
0:19
detection that goes beyond the uh
0:21
version that we have you know
0:23
specifically in Android the Google
0:25
version um that's a little more advanced
0:28
and the second one is HDR screenshots
0:30
which Android 16 is bringing support for
0:33
that and it looks like Samsung is
0:34
working on that in this latest build
0:36
before we get started I do want to
0:37

you want to check that out it's in the
1:15
pin comment description below okay so
1:16
let's go ahead and talk about these two
1:18
features ice Universe posted over on X
1:20
last night we covered this in an article
1:21
at Sammy Guru that uh he took a
1:23
screenshot of an HDR photo from the Find
1:27
X8 Ultra uh and then he saved it to his
1:30
gallery on his Galaxy S25 Ultra and then
1:32
the HDR content was preserved so he
1:35
showed this in his gallery he swipes up
1:37
he shows the file size of course you
1:39
know suggesting that this is indeed HDR
1:42
and of course Android 16 brings support
1:44
for this so it's not too surprising that
1:45
Samsung will be working on it though I
1:47
did take some tests here and by the way
1:50
yes I'm running the same build this is
1:51
build ZY F7 uh that I'm running here so
1:55
I'll just go ahead and quickly show you
1:57
guys let me go into about phone and you
1:59
can see the build right here ends in
2:00
ZYF7 the same one that Ice Universe has
2:03
so I tested this with some HDR content i
2:05
tried it with videos first trying to see
2:07
if the videos would work that didn't
2:09
seem to work this is does not look like
2:11
the HDR videos i actually tested it um
2:14
let me show you guys with this video
2:16
right here this HDR chroma galaxies
2:20
which you can see if you go through very
2:23
bright you can see how bright the chroma
2:25
galaxies are but if you switch back over
2:27
here you know this doesn't look anything
2:29
like what you just saw in the app
2:32
however I did try with some Instagram
2:34
HDR photos over here um from W Vision
2:38
Creations account he does some great
2:41
photos taken with his Galaxy device and
2:43
this does appear to preserve some of the
2:46
HDR brightness when you take the
2:47
screenshot um here now these photos are
2:50
not quite as large as the ones that Ice
2:52
Universe have but it does appear to
2:54
preserve so maybe be only specific to
2:56
photos right now um it does not appear
2:59
to work with the videos cuz I don't see
3:01
any preservation there but I tried a few
3:04
photos and the HDR brightness in detail
3:06
does seem to be preserved in certain
3:08
instances so this could be one
3:10
potentially region specific but also app
3:13
or photo versus video specific may not
3:16
work with videos at all yet but it is a
3:18
very interesting feature i think a lot
3:20
of people would enjoy the having this as
3:22
well so hopefully Samsung will have it
3:23
ready for the 1 UI 8 stable roll out
3:26
when that comes along in July the next
3:28
feature I want to talk about is advanced
3:31
earthquake detection now we covered this
3:33
in an article as well but let me go to
3:35
the original source link over here on X
3:37
and show you guys what we're talking
3:38
about galaxy Tech is the one who
3:40
originally uh tweeted out about this and
3:44
it is about advanced earthquake
3:46
protection and it's basically saying
3:48
that Samsung is adding some features
3:50
compared to Google the user face
3:52
interface preview warning are now more
3:53
native to 1 UI change the seismic
3:55
intensity threshold for the alert to
3:57
trigger view the warning history and
3:59
emergency shelters so you can see this
4:01
and originally when we saw this you can
4:03
see the seismic intensity at emergency
4:05
shelters we were really excited when we
4:07
wrote up our original article but then
4:09
Gerwin one of our writers pointed out to
4:11
Sumit and I that these are only
4:14
originally were in Chinese and it looks
4:16
like they had been translated uh from
4:19
Chinese to English when Galaxy Techie
4:21
took the screenshots now that's not
4:23
necessarily to say that he was trying to
4:25
mislead people but it does make people
4:27
think that this potentially could be
4:28
global uh even though it's not looks
4:30
like it's confined to China and the
4:31
neighboring regions he did clarify this
4:33
in some replies on X so I don't think he
4:36
was really trying to do that and you can
4:37
see the seismic intensity threshold here
4:40
different times of the day and the low
4:41
inensity notifications as well as the
4:44
preview warning but all these original
4:45
screenshots are in Chinese now you can
4:48
install this update which makes it
4:50
installable on regular phone you know
4:52
any phone essentially but I don't know
4:54
if all this will work i'm going to dig
4:55
in this and test it a little bit more
4:57
and see if any of these things actually
4:59
end up working or coming globally either
5:01
way even if they don't it's still very
5:03
interesting i would certainly like to
5:05
see though Samsung bring this uh to the
5:08
global scale and not just confined to
5:10
China china has a ton of Galaxy specific
5:13
features that are confined there and
5:15
don't come outside the Chinese region
5:17
don't really know why Samsung does that
5:19
probably because there's so much
5:20
competition from Xiaomi Vivo and other
5:23
companies in China that they really have
5:25
to bring you know the heat and push
5:27
everything to the envelope uh anyway
5:29
very exciting hopefully this feature
5:31
does make its way globally earthquake
5:33
warnings could be huge for those of you
5:35
in California here in Arizona we don't
5:37
get them too often but I know it'll be
5:38
very useful for those of you who do live
5:41
here in my neighboring state of
5:42
California anyway hope you guys enjoyed
