Wider Galaxy S24 One UI 6.1.1 rollout starts next week
In the US and Europe, the Galaxy S24 series' One UI 6.1 update will be released on September 9. Samsung hasn't provided the exact release date for other regions; it simply says that they will get it “in the coming weeks”, and we expect the company to make the update available in most markets outside of Europe and the US by the end of next week.
“The coming weeks” is also when One UI 6.1.1 will start rolling to flagship phones and tablets launched in 2023. It's a vague time frame, but going by how the One UI 6.1 update spread faster than the virus that brought the world to a standstill in 2020 after the initial release, we reckon One UI 6.1.1 will be available for some of those eligible devices sometime next week.
One UI 6.1.1 brings several Galaxy AI features and improvements
Samsung took longer than usual for the development of this version of One UI. That's because of all the new Galaxy AI features included in it.
Some of the features include Interpreter's new listening mode, Portrait Studio, Sketch to Image, improved Chat Assist with the ability to create emails and social media posts out of a few keywords, support for live call translations in third-party apps, and PDF summaries and translations within the Samsung Notes app.

Author's note: On the Galaxy S24 series and other non-foldable devices, the One UI version will continue to be displayed as One UI 6.1 even after the One UI 6.1.1 update is installed. It will only be displayed as One UI 6.1.1 on Samsung tablets and foldable Galaxy smartphones.
