The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is set to make its global debut next month. While we have already covered various rumors regarding its specifications, the latest report claims that a pretty useful software feature will finally be making its way to the brand’s next gen flagships.
Samsung Galaxy S25 could bring support for car crash detection
According to an AndroidAuthority report, leaked files have revealed that Samsung is working on a car crash detection feature, which is similar to what Apple iPhones and Google Pixels offer. Back in January 2024, we covered a report regarding the Galaxy S24 and Z Fold 5 bringing this potentially life-saving feature. But it appears that this might finally roll out on the Galaxy S25 series.
The leaked files confirms the presence of a new sensor in the Galaxy S25 Ultra model. Although Samsung has yet to activate this feature. So while the sensor code exists, there is still no concrete information about this feature being live or accessible even in Samsung smartphones that are already in the market. Looking at the leaked files, we can see that the function works via a “composite” sensor, which takes data from multiple physical sensors to help detect a car crash.
Samsung seemingly brought this feature to last year’s Galaxy S24 series and Galaxy Galaxy Z Fol 5, but there is no user interface or active function related to this feature. A car crash detection technology would also be clearly advertised by the brand and it is not available in the One UI 7 iteration either. But all of this hints that the feature could launch soon. It may debut with the Galaxy S25 series, or arrive in a major update later on.
