[List] Samsung AOD (Always On Display) supported Galaxy devices
Always On Display is an old yet useful feature for those people who don’t like to unlock their phones just to check the time, date, notifications, missed calls, battery level, and other information. It’s also remarkable for those who like to customize their phone in distinct ways and want their phone’s lock screen to look different.
With the Samsung One UI, you can do even more with AOD. The company provides a variety of clocks and designs, you can choose colors and wallpapers or can even select a picture from the gallery to put on your Always On Display screen.

Besides the basics, Galaxy users can experience various widgets on the AOD screen by double-tapping the clock area, can easily play music on the off-screen, or check schedules and alarms. You can also pin text and images that you want to remember every time.
Unfortunately, not every smartphone user can take advantage of this wonderful feature. The companies only provide the Always On Display on the devices that features AMOLED and Super AMOLED screen as they consume less battery.
Many of you might have known the AOD feature and have used it before on your Galaxy device. But some people do not even know whether their phone supports it or not. They must be glad to know that we have created a list of Samsung Galaxy smartphones that supports Always On Display.
You can check the list of devices that are mentioned below.

- Open the Settings app.
- Go to the Lock screen.
- Click on Always On Display.
- Tap the switch at the top of the screen to turn it on.
- Choose the mode that best suits your needs:
- Tap to show: The Always On Display will appear for a short time after tapping the screen.
- Show always: The Always On Display will be continuously shown whenever the phone is locked.
- Show as scheduled: You can set up a schedule for when Always On Display will show. For example, you can make it display during the day but turn it off at night.
Download Always On Display Themes
In case you have totally bored of those stock Always On Display designs, I recommend using the AOD Themes available on Galaxy Store. However, you need to purchase your favorite Theme, in the same you might do while purchasing Fonts or Icons. Here’s how.

Galaxy S25 Ultra dummy reveals Samsung’s bold flagship redesign
Galaxy S25 Ultra dummy leak reveals the nearly final design of Samsung’s next big flagship. After CAD renders, we now have a closer look at the refined new design of the Ultra flagship, which will give sleepless nights to Apple.
Onleaks posted a set of Galaxy S25 Ultra dummy models. The flagship can be seen with its refined design, which makes the corner slightly rounded. The Z Fold6-inspired camera rings also elevate the rear panel’s appearance, making it appealing.
There are three major changes in the body design of Samsung’s next Ultra flagship. The first is the frame, which is getting flatter like the iPhone. Second is rounded corners, that are not that rounded like S24/S25, and third is textured camera rings.
Notably, the dummy units don’t show a close look at the bezels. However, this aspect is expected to be improved over the previous generations. Minimal symmetrical bezels will present an appealing look on the phone’s front side.
The Galaxy S25 Ultra is slimmer than the Galaxy S24 Ultra. The S Pen compartment resists on the frame’s bottom, accompanied by the primary microphone, USB C-Type port, speaker grille, and SIM card tray.
The right side of the frame features volume adjustment buttons and a side key. The power button can be configured to trigger a digital assistant. The fingerprint scanner will be featured as an in-screen solution with faster and more reliable recognition.
Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy S25 series in late January next year.

Samsung dreams new camera with longer battery, less noise
A new patent suggests Samsung working on next-gen camera tech that could save battery and crush lens process noise. The company has recently unveiled the All Lenses on Prism telephoto solution for thinner and sleeker zoom cameras.
Since smartphone camera modules get more advanced, a lot of processing power is required to finish the tasks. That said, Samsung is crafting even more advanced camera modules that save battery and reduce noise.
Enter Samsung’s new patent, which introduces a power-saving sub-processor. This clever little chip would handle all the extra camera tasks—like reducing noise from the OIS lens movements and managing the EIS algorithms.
It will reduce the burden of the main processor so it can focus on the actual photo-taking. At the time your device is in a sleep or power-saving state, the sub-processor keeps running quietly in the background, consuming minimal power.
If the technology is used, you will have less noise in camera operations, smoother performance, and better battery life. At the same time, you won’t lose your favorite camera features, but your smartphone will last longer between charges.
A look ahead
The development shows Samsung’s innovative approach. Other than upgrading camera sensors, the company is also working on improvements to the technology that works behind the scenes and makes a great impact on performance and efficiency.
Samsung often registers new patent applications to secure designs and innovations. However, it’s uncertain that a patented technology would surely be commercialized. Tech firms have thousands of approved patents that never get produced.
