Khaberni - Samsung Galaxy devices have always been the preferred choice for various categories of content creators seeking to produce professional artistic works, and with the Galaxy S26 Ultra , content creators can now enjoy an enhanced and unprecedented experience in visual content creation at the highest quality levels.
Samsung has developed advanced professional video encoding technologies, Advanced Professional Video (APV), in collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies, to be an advanced tool that opens up professional content production capabilities to a wider user base. Development of this technology took years of joint work until it became a reality with the Snapdragon® 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile Platform in the device Galaxy S26 Ultra, clearly embodying Samsung's methodology based on enhancing user experience through effective partnerships with industry leaders.
What is APV encoding in the Galaxy S26 Ultra?
The Galaxy S26 Ultra is the first device in the Galaxy series that supports APV encoding technology, offering users a new feature that enables them to produce higher quality video files while occupying the least possible space in storage. This feature provides the perfect solution for those seeking professional quality while maintaining ease of shooting, thus marking a qualitative leap in the world of video production using smart devices.
How does APV encoding work?
While most smart device encoding technologies focus on reducing file size without considering professional processing requirements, APV encoding offers a different approach focusing on facilitating editing processes and giving users an experience of creating content at the highest levels of quality and creative flexibility. With the Galaxy device, it is now possible to shoot video content that matches the quality of professional cinematic cameras in terms of editing and montage capabilities, while maintaining picture quality after many repeated editing processes. APV encoding supports up to 8K resolution at 30 frames per second, with up to 10% less storage space consumption compared to similar formats, without compromising visual quality.
How to activate APV encoding on the Galaxy S26 Ultra
- The encoding feature can be activated by going to the Camera, then Settings, then Video Format, then the APV option
- You can also choose the appropriate control mode, whether APV HDR, or APV Log
- Select the type of video file compression: APV 422 HQ for high quality or APOV 422 LQ to reduce space and data rate consumption
- Enable or disable the selected shooting mode through the preview screen in the Camera
- There is also the possibility of recording APV video directly to an external USB storage unit, by going to the Camera, then Settings, then pressing on the option to save on an external storage unit
