Samsung's latest innovation, the Galaxy S25 Ultra, powered by Galaxy AI1, makes capturing stunning night shots simple. Features such as Nightography2 enhance low-light performance, Scene Optimisation auto-adjusts settings, and Generative Edit3 tools refine every detail after you shoot, even in the most challenging conditions.

Combined with the Ultra’s large sensor and 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen with a super-smooth 120 Hz refresh rate, it doesn’t just allow nighttime shots – it’s built for brilliant night photography. Thanks to AI advancements, you can now trust your Galaxy S25 Ultra to do the heavy lifting, delivering incredible results even in tricky lighting. Here are five quick Nightography tips to help you take full advantage of these features.

Quick Tip 1: Switch to Night Mode automatically with Scene Optimisation

You don’t need to fumble with settings when the light gets low. With Galaxy AI’s Scene Optimisation, the S25 Ultra intelligently detects when you’re shooting in the dark and automatically activates Night Mode. The result? Brighter, clearer shots without lifting a finger. AI fine-tunes exposure and reduces noise in real-time, so you can focus on capturing the perfect moment.

Quick Tip 2: Use Generative Edit to perfect your shots

Sometimes, even the best night shots could use a little extra magic. That’s where the Galaxy AI Generative Edit tool comes in. Want to remove a distracting streetlight or enhance the stars in your sky shot? The Galaxy S25 Ultra’s AI-powered editing lets you tweak, enhance, and even reimagine parts of your photo with a few taps without desktop editing software.

Quick Tip 3: Take advantage of the massive sensor

The Galaxy S25 Ultra features an Octa-Core CPU designed to soak up light, even in near darkness. Thanks to pixel binning technology, you get sharper, more detailed images with less noise than the previous Galaxy S generation is capable of. Pair this with the Ultra’s vivid, Quad HD+ display, and you can preview your nighttime masterpiece with stunning clarity right from your phone.

Quick Tip 4: Zoom without losing detail

Zooming at night used to mean sacrificing image quality, but not with the Galaxy S25 Ultra. Its advanced AI algorithms stabilise your shots and enhance detail when you zoom in, even in low-light conditions. From capturing the full moon to a far-off skyline, you’ll get crisp, clear results without blur or grain.

Quick Tip 5: Shoot in RAW for pro-level results

Want even more control? The S25 Ultra lets you shoot in RAW, giving you maximum flexibility for post-editing. With the enhanced AI processing, even RAW files benefit from smarter noise reduction and colour correction. Combine this with the Galaxy AI Edit Suggestion tool, and you can elevate your night shots from impressive to gallery-worthy.

How Galaxy AI redefines low-light photography

With its upgraded Nightography system, combined with the power of Galaxy AI, the Galaxy S25 Ultra is tailor-made for nighttime photography. You get clear shots, less noise, and smart scene recognition without any effort. Plus, with the massive, ultra-bright Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen, what you see is exactly what you get, even in low light.


One last thing. If you have somehow missed the buzz throughout the internet tech sphere, Samsung has recently launched their latest foldable wonder – the Galaxy Z Fold7.

With major hardware upgrades, such as a 200MP camera sensor, an impossibly svelte 4.2mm thin unfolded chassis, and stunning (2184 x 1968) 8” main display, there’s a lot to get excited about.
