New Galaxy Fold update brings Galaxy S20 camera features, May security patch

New features include Pro video mode, Single Take, and 4K 60 fps selfie videos

The update comes with firmware version F900FXXU3BTDD and adds multiple new camera modes to the Galaxy Fold. There's Single Take, which allows you to take a series of videos and still images with all of the rear cameras with a single tap. Then there's Night Hyperlapse, which records timelapse videos with long exposure to create a light trail effect that's beautiful to look at — check out this video sample to see what we're talking about.

The update also adds the ability to record videos in Pro mode, a feature that Samsung reintroduced to its smartphones with the Galaxy S20 series after taking it away with the Android Pie update back in late 2018, along with 60 fps 4K video recording with the front camera. The Galaxy Fold is also getting support for creating custom filters in the Camera app. Called My Filters, the feature lets you create filters based on existing photos in your gallery and then use them for new photos taken with both the rear and front cameras.
