Samsung finally gives Galaxy S10 a dedicated night mode
It’s about time!
One of the most sought-after features in a smartphone camera these days is night mode, which provides greater illumination to low-light environments. While Samsung had been offering this in its phones for some time already, it’s only now that its getting its own mode in the default camera app.
The firmware update is currently on its way to Galaxy S10 users in Switzerland, according to SamMobile. Called Bright Night, the mode is found situated beside the likes of Live Focus and Panorama.
It’s a feature users had been clamoring for in the past. Previously, you would have to allow the AI scene optimizer to automatically select the mode for you; with this update, you don’t have to wait for total darkness to set in anymore.
With several of Samsung’s competitors — such as Google and Huawei — offering this function off the bat, it’s about time the Galaxies followed suit. Unfortunately, there’s no word yet on which non-S10 models are getting this, too.
In the meantime, you may keep checking the software update option in the settings menu until it becomes available for your Galaxy S10. The update happens to come with the April 2019 security patch as well, signaling that it’s bound for a global release soon.
