Samsung has rolled out the latest One UI 7 Beta 5 update for the Galaxy S24 series, introducing a major upgrade in video recording capabilities. The new update enables support for capturing LOG (logarithmic) footage, allowing users to record a wider dynamic range and retain more image data. This upgrade is now available for the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra, enhancing video quality and post-production flexibility.
Enhanced Video Recording with LOG Support
LOG video capture was initially introduced with the Galaxy S25 series earlier this year. With the One UI 7 Beta 5 update, Samsung is now extending this feature to the Galaxy S24 lineup. LOG recording allows the camera sensor to capture a wider range of luminance, including both very dark and very bright areas. This results in better color control, improved shadows, and more natural highlights.
Samsung claims that the LOG video format retains more image data compared to standard recording, offering greater control over color tones and exposure during post-production. The feature uses a 10-bit HEVC codec for enhanced color depth and improved storage efficiency.
Bug Fixes and System Enhancements
In addition to LOG video support, the One UI 7 Beta 5 update addresses several reported issues:
- Fixed display error in the Now Bar controller
- Resolved small icon issues on the Widget Setting screen
- Fixed issues with the Gallery Edit button and font/image overlap
- Improved real-time media playback notifications
- Enhanced quick action menu spacing
- Fixed Notification History operation errors
Performance Overview of Galaxy S24 Series
Samsung’s Galaxy S24 lineup, released earlier this year, includes three models:
- Galaxy S24 – Compact design with a vibrant 120Hz display, capable processor, and solid camera performance.

Future Rollout and Expectations
