Google introduced Ultra HDR technology, an important step in mobile photography, with Android 14. Although Android phone manufacturers were a little late in adapting to the Ultra HDR feature, the S24 Ultra came with Samsung’s “Super HDR” feature.
There will be no Super HDR in the Galaxy S23 series
Samsung introduced this feature Super HDR using format Google UltraHDR, initially offering it to Galaxy S24 users. Samsung says the Super HDR feature is not only for displaying high dynamic range colors in photos, but also enhances colors in videos using its own algorithms.
Google Ultra HDR image format attracts attention because it is stored in .jpg format. When viewed on an HDR screen, the image is displayed in high dynamic range, while on an SDR screen, a basic image is displayed. An Ultra HDR image consists of a base image and an HDR gain map; This makes bright areas of the image appear truly bright when the underlying image is displayed on SDR displays.
With the One UI 6.1 update released for the S23 series, Samsung has expanded the artificial intelligence features available in the S24 series to the S23 series, but things will be different with the Super HDR feature. S23 users will not be able to benefit from Samsung’s proprietary Super HDR image display algorithms.
