Last week, Samsung announced it would release software updates that would bring 360 Audio Recording to the Galaxy Buds2 Pro and camera zoom capability to the Galaxy Watch5 and Watch4 series. Well, the rollout has begun as the Galaxy Watch5 in the US has received a new software update with firmware version R900XXU1AWA3 that lets the smartwatch’s users control the zoom level of the connected smartphone’s camera through the Camera Controller on the wearable.
This can be done with a simple pinch of the watch face or turning the rotating virtual bezel. However, this feature will only work with Galaxy smartphones, so you can’t use it if you own a phone from a different brand.
The update for the Galaxy Buds2 Pro has firmware version R510XXU0AWA5, which brings 360 Audio Recording to the TWS earphones. As evident from the name, this feature lets you record 360° audio using the microphone in each earbud. However, it only works with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold4 and Galaxy Z Flip4.
