Samsung is rolling out a new software update for the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro and the Galaxy Watch 4 and 5 series. These include the ability to record 360 audio and an improved camera controller. The new updates will enhance the content-capturing capabilities for Galaxy users. Samsung stated that “Paired with a Galaxy smartphone, the latest wearable software updates bring users new ways to capture the world as they hear and see it. These software updates reflect Samsung’s continuous commitment to providing the most up-to-date experiences to existing devices.”

The Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro’s 360 audio recording allows users to record sound on video as they hear it. This is possible by pairing the TWS earphone with a Galaxy smartphone. Users can capture and record high-quality realistic audio for videos without the need for professional equipment. The feature is possible because it uses a microphone in each earbud to pick up 360-degree sound 

The 360 audio recording is said to be the first feature in the Galaxy line that utilises an advanced new Bluetooth audio standard called LE audio. It offers better audio quality, lower latency, and longer battery life. LE audio also enables binaural recording on the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro.  

On the other hand, the Galaxy Watch 5 and Watch 4 series gain new features in its Camera Controller app. The new update for the smartwatches adds zoom capabilities that expand the camera experience when paired with a Galaxy smartphone. Users can control the phone’s zoom camera by pinching the watch’s face or turning the rotating bezel. This eliminates the need to run back and forth to the camera to frame a picture.  

The 360 Audio Recording will be released on the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro, Galaxy Z Flip 4, and Galaxy Z Fold 4 through software updates starting today. The updated camera controller feature will be available on the Galaxy Watch 5, 5 Pro, Watch 4 and 4 Classic starting this February.
