Samsung is bringing Ocean Mode to the Galaxy S25 Ultra via an Expert RAW update (version 5.0.08.2) in One UI 8.5 beta, a feature originally built for coral reef work that enhances underwater footage; there’s a possibility the Galaxy S24 Ultra could get it too, but Ocean Mode does not improve water resistance and users should follow standard water-protection guidelines since salt or chlorine can still affect the device.
