San Francisco: With the rollout of the stable version of Samsung‘s Android 13-based One UI 5 update to its phones, the tech giant has introduced to bring new emojis to its devices.

The new update will come with support for Unicode 15 meaning Samsung will be the first Android phone to have the latest emojis.

According to Android Authority, Emojipedia announced in September that a new batch of emojis would be released through Unicode 15 – a standard for encoding, representing, and handling text. Samsung new emoji update Samsung new emoji update

The new release would bring 31 new emojis, including things like a shaking face, a jellyfish, a hair pick, and more.

Back in September, Google announced it would be bringing support for Unicode 15 for Android by December.

Apparently, that wasn’t soon enough for Samsung, as Emojipedia’s blog announced Samsung had already added support for Unicode 15 to its One UI 5.

About Samsung

The Samsung Group or simply Samsung, stylized as SΛMSUNG is a South Korean multinational manufacturing conglomerate headquartered in Samsung Town, Seoul, South Korea. It comprises numerous affiliated businesses, most of them united under the Samsung brand, and is the largest South Korean chaebol (business conglomerate). As of 2020, Samsung has the eight highest global brand values. According to Samsung’s founder, the meaning of the Korean hanja word Samsung (三星) is “three stars”. The word “three” represents something “big, numerous and powerful”, while “stars” means “everlasting” or “eternal”, like stars in the sky.

Samsung was founded by Lee Byung-chul in 1938 as a trading company. Over the next three decades, the group diversified into areas including food processing, textiles, insurance, securities, and retail. Samsung entered the electronics industry in the late 1960s and the construction and shipbuilding industries in the mid-1970s; these areas would drive its subsequent growth. Following Lee’s death in 1987, Samsung was separated into five business groups – Samsung Group, Shinsegae Group, CJ Group and Hansol Group, and Joongang Group.
