Samsung Electronics
- 2027 Honoree in Mobile Devices, Accessories & Apps
Samsung’s UFS 5.0 is the industry’s first UFS 5.0 storage solution designed for next-generation on-device AI in smartphones and other mobile devices. As generative and agentic AI applications process more data directly on devices, faster and more efficient storage becomes essential. UFS 5.0 delivers bandwidth of up to 10.8 GB/s and twice the sequential read and write performance of UFS 4.1. Samsung’s proprietary software algorithm improves random read performance across a large storage area by more than 3.4 times. These advancements reduce AI model loading times and improve responsiveness, supporting AI features including real-time content generation. Available in 512GB and 1TB capacities, UFS 5.0 offers a package 16.7% smaller than the previous generation, freeing up space for key components such as batteries and improving design flexibility. It also provides 40% better power efficiency than UFS 4.1, helping reduce battery consumption during demanding AI tasks.
