  • Libraries on the TV will be organized by people, places and moments, with slideshows that group related photos by topics or locations such as beach trips or visits to Dubai or London.
  • A Memories experience arrives first on Samsung TVs with six months of exclusivity, according to the company.
  • In the second half of 2026, Samsung plans to add Gemini Nano Banana–based tools for themed templates, a Remix style changer and turning still photos into short videos.
