The Olympic Games are a spectacular gathering, uniting athletes and fans from every corner of the globe. Nearly 10,000 athletes from 206 countries and millions of fans are in Paris for these “Games Wide Open.” Thanks to Galaxy AI, Samsung is breaking down barriers and enhancing the Games-time experience like never before.
From the Galaxy Z Flip6 Olympic Edition — provided to competing athletes at the Olympic and Paralympic Games Paris 2024 — to interactive programs at the Olympic™ rendezvous @ Samsung pop-up experiences, Samsung’s innovative technology is creating connections and fostering more meaningful communication among athletes and fans in Paris every day.
One standout Galaxy AI feature in the new Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 instantly translates real-time conversations and offers live translations when users speak face-to-face through the unique dual screens on the foldables. Since the start of the Olympic Games, the Interpreter feature in Galaxy devices has been opening up the City of Light and helping athletes, volunteers and visitors chat with each other.
“I travel a lot, and sometimes there is a language barrier,” said Team Samsung Galaxy member Wilma Anna Helena Murto (Athletics, Finland) who tested Interpreter when visiting Olympic™ rendezvous @ Samsung | Village Plaza alongside many other athletes. “This really makes a difference.”
“Same! I travel every month to many countries where people speak different languages,” added fellow Team Samsung Galaxy member Alessandro Mazzara (Skateboarding, Italy). “I will use it for sure.”
Fans across Paris — who have been lining up at Olympic™ rendezvous @ Samsung at Champs-Elysees 125 and Square Marigny to experience the latest Galaxy devices — agree as well.
“I can see how helpful the translation feature would be,” said Josefine Christoffersen, a visitor from Sweden who speaks Swedish and English. Since arriving on Saturday, she has enjoyed meeting people from all over the world at her first visit to the Olympic Games.
So far, Christoffersen has cheered on her favorite athletes while watching athletics, beach volleyball and handball. On Tuesday, she tried her hand at the Samsung Olympic Games Pin Master Challenge at Olympic™ rendezvous @ Samsung | Square Marigny.
Siqi Chen, a student from China, has been living in France for five years. She visited Olympic™ rendezvous @ Samsung | Champs-Elysees 125 to check out the latest Galaxy AI innovations.
“Since moving to France, I’ve been traveling all around Europe and visiting lots of other countries,” said Chen who speaks Chinese, English and French. “Interpreter is very helpful and convenient in these moments — when I visit Spain, for example, I can speak Spanish using Galaxy AI!”
Kenny Goma, a Samsung promoter at Olympic™ rendezvous @ Samsung | Champs-Elysees 125, has been engaging with fans and visitors from around the world. Originally from Martinique, he has been living in Paris for 12 years and working at the pop-up experience since it opened in early May.
“People have been impressed when I show them the cover screen,” said Goma. “Even if it’s hard for them to hear, they can read the translation on the screen which is so helpful. They don’t even have to be connected to the network. They immediately recognize the impact, and it’s one of the most popular features here at the pop-up experience.”
The benefits of Galaxy AI are making a difference for the thousands of volunteers who are helping ensure the Paris 2024 Olympics is a smooth and fun experience for all. Emmanuel Mantilla Jr. from the Philippines has been in Paris since July 25 to volunteer at the Olympic Games for the first time.
“My first few days here were a little overwhelming because even though I speak several languages, I don’t speak French,” said Mantilla Jr. who has been stationed at Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. “People thought maybe I couldn’t help them.”
“But Interpreter has been so helpful — not only for communicating with visitors but also with my fellow volunteers. I’ve been using the feature on my Galaxy S24 Ultra with many of the French colleagues in my volunteer group, and we all love it,” he added.
“There are always a lot of tourists in Paris, particularly on the Champs-Elysees,” said Goma. “But there are even more people here for the Olympic Games. This is the perfect opportunity to showcase Galaxy AI’s live translation capabilities, especially for all the visitors who don’t speak French. Now, they can celebrate together — whether at the Olympic Games or in everyday life.”
The Paris 2024 Olympics isn’t just about competition — it’s about celebrating humanity and bringing the world together. Samsung is making this Olympic experience truly unforgettable through connections that are stronger and more seamless than ever.
