Samsung Electronics has announced a partnership with Seatrees—a non-profit organization that plants and protects coastal ecosystems to help reverse climate change. Seatrees aims to restore “blue-carbon” ecosystems like mangrove forests, kelp forests, seagrass, coral, and watersheds.
To jointly promote coral reef restoration and support the process, Samsung has developed a unique feature for its Galaxy devices, called Ocean Mode. Take a look at the images below captured by the Galaxy S24 Ultra equipped with Ocean Mode.
The feature will be exclusively provided to the local coral reef restoration activists
According to the company, the Galaxy camera technology will be exclusively provided to the local coral reef restoration activists and researchers in coastal communities. This initiative will help the activists in monitoring the ocean floor and track the progress of the restoration process efficiently.
In a world where IP69-rated phones are often used to showcase durability in gimmicky ways, Samsung’s initiative stands out by leveraging technological advancements for something truly meaningful. Samsung, in collaboration with Seatrees, has added a new purpose to its Galaxy devices. Even though the feature isn’t reaching the hands of all Galaxy fans, it’s making a small contribution to the planet, thus benefiting us all.
Yes, this is a relatively small-scale project, and we hope to see more companies investing some of their time and resources into initiatives like this, which not only directly benefit the process but also encourage greater participation and collaboration. Although not exclusively mentioned, the newly launched Galaxy S25 Ultra is also expected to become a part of the process once it becomes available.

“We initiated our commitment to the world’s oceans when we transformed discarded fishing nets into key components of the Galaxy S22 series, which to date, has incorporated more than 150 tonnes of discarded fishing nets into key components of Galaxy devices,” said Stephanie Choi, EVP & Head of Marketing of Mobile eXperience Business at Samsung Electronics. “This year, we are furthering our commitment to the oceans by creating purposeful technology that helps protect and restore damaged marine ecosystems around the world.”
