Purchased a SIM-free model of AI smartphone Galaxy S24 and changed from au line to docomo line using IIJmio using voice eSIM [Actual device review]

update Last updated: September 25, 2024 at 1:46 PM

From Samsung Electronics Japan Co., Ltd., the flagship smartphones "Galaxy S24" and "Galaxy S24 Ultra" equipped with Galaxy AI will be available for pre-order from Wednesday, April 3, 2024, and will be available on Thursday, April 11, 2024. Following the announcement that it would be released, I pre-purchased the SIM-free model of the Galaxy S24, which I had been planning to purchase, on the Samsung shop site.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra is very attractive due to its high-performance camera functions, but the price is too high and the body is heavy so I felt it was a little inconvenient to carry around on a daily basis, so I chose the Galaxy S24 because of its portability. selected.

The device I mainly used was a Galaxy S10+, and a cheap SIM IIJmio I had been using an au line with a voice SIM inserted, but when I received the SIM-free Galaxy S24, I switched to a docomo line.
The reason why I changed the main device to a docomo line is that the iPhone SE2 I am using as a sub device is a povo 2.0 au line, so I decided to use two types of lines together for fail-safe purposes.

The Galaxy S24 has a built-in eSIM, so if you go to your carrier or MVNO's website to change the line using the eSIM, the line will be switched in real time and you will be able to use mobile communication immediately, which is very convenient. is.
Therefore, when I received the Galaxy S24 that I pre-ordered from Samsung, I immediately went through the procedures to issue an eSIM to my docomo line.

Order your Galaxy S24

As posted, I ordered the Galaxy S24 (SIM-free, 256GB, cobalt violet) on April 5th (Friday) for a purchase price of 124,700 yen.
Initially, the reservation site stated that the item would be delivered in mid-May, but in my case, the item arrived on Wednesday, April 17th.
There have been many reports of shipping delays due to a rush of orders, but the SIM-free version may have had a little more inventory than the carrier version.

For this order, I had my Galaxy S9+ taken away from me in conjunction with the "Samsung Trade-in Service Limited Time Increase Campaign," but after the estimate from Samsung, I was told that the screen was too cracked, so I had to return it. It's gone. If the screen hadn't been broken, I could have had it taken away for 8,000 yen...
On the Samsung trade-in service website, it was written that it was okay even if the screen was cracked, so it was a different story 😥

Furthermore, if the screen is not cracked, I think you will probably be able to sell it for a higher price if you sell it on Yahoo! Auctions or Mercari. Also, if you apply for the Samsung trade-in service, your device will be taken away immediately within 3 days, so please be careful as this may hinder the migration process.

Galaxy S24 Change to IIJmio's docomo line with eSIM

The model I'm currently using is the Galaxy S10+, which has a contract with IIJmio's au line, which is a cheap SIM.
This time, with IIJmio's campaign, the carrier change fee for voice eSIM is waived, so I changed my docomo line to voice eSIM.

In addition, prior to switching the eSIM, we performed the initial settings of the Galaxy S24 and migrated data from the old device Galaxy S10+ using Wi-Fi.
Just by scanning the QR code from the destination smartphone to the source smartphone, the Smart Switch app will connect to Wi-Fi and automatically transfer data, making the migration process really easy.
Thanks to the Galaxy S24's high CPU performance and the Wi-Fi 6 standard router's high-speed data transfer (128GB data capacity), the migration process was completed in less than 45 minutes.

Apply to exchange your docomo line for a voice eSIM on the IIJmio website

IIJmio, a low-cost SIM, is running a "Voice Only! SIM Exchange Fee Discount Campaign" for a limited time from January 18, 2024 to June 3, 2024. If you are currently using the IIJmio Mobile Service Giga Plan and change to a "voice eSIM" through the SIM exchange procedure during the period, the fee will be 0 yen.

Voice eSIM activation procedure for Galaxy S24

If you issue an eSIM, it will be activated automatically, so no activation procedures are required.
When changing from a voice call SIM (type A) to a voice eSIM (type D), it is said to take about 1 hour as shown in the table below, but in reality it took about 15 minutes. !

The gallery below is the notification screen of the Galaxy S24 when it is automatically activated after applying for eSIM issuance on IIJmio's website. Just follow the guide and your eSIM will be added automatically.


In addition, in the case of IIJmio, after activating the eSIM, it seems that mobile communication cannot be performed properly unless APN settings for IIJmio are also performed. For more information on eSIM initial setup and APN settings, please refer to the link below.

[Summary]… Standard mode

Purchased Galaxy S24 and changed from au line to docomo line with IIJmio

• From Samsung Electronics Japan Co., Ltd., the flagship smartphones “Galaxy S24” and “Galaxy S24 Ultra” equipped with Galaxy AI will be available for pre-order from Wednesday, April 3, 2024, and will be available for pre-order from Thursday, April 11, 2024. I pre-purchased the SIM-free model of the Galaxy S24, which I had been planning to purchase, on the Samsung shop site following the announcement that it would be released in 2019.

• Galaxy S24 has a built-in eSIM, so if you go to the carrier or MVNO website to change the line using eSIM, the line will be switched in real time and you will be able to use mobile communication immediately. Convenient.

• There have been many reports of shipping delays due to a rush of orders, but the SIM-free version may have more inventory than the carrier version.

• Galaxy S24 is Samsung's globally announced flagship smartphone with the following features:

Image generation using “AI sketch”

2024-09-12 Due to the Android 14 software update, the interface has changed, and the conventional "i button" has been replaced with a generated AI button. The gallery below is an example of image generation using "AI Sketch".

Search in parentheses

Kakotte Search is a Google-enabled feature that lets you quickly search for information about what's on your screen, including images, videos, and text, using simple gestures with your finger or S Pen. .

The steps to enable "Kokotte Search" are as follows, but it is enabled by default.

  1. Open Settings and tap Display.
  2. Select navigation bar.
  3. Turn on search by parentheses.

Please note that an Internet connection is required to use this feature. Also, due to the nature of search algorithms, searches for the same image may yield different results.

The following is an example of how to search for photos in the gallery using "Search by parenthesis".

How to set up and use the interpreter app

Galaxy AI also offers an interpreter app. Interpretation apps translate face-to-face conversations in real time and can be used in a variety of business and personal situations. Below is a brief explanation of how to use it.

Open the quick panel and select "Interpreter".
Select your preferred language by tapping Language next to the microphone icon at the bottom of the screen. Select the language the other person uses by tapping Language next to the microphone icon at the top of the screen.
Tap the change display mode icon in the top right corner and turn the top half of the screen toward the other person. Tap the microphone icon facing you and start speaking.
The app translates what you say audibly and displays a transcription in the user's original language and a written translation in the other person's language. It can also be used for face-to-face conversations and real-time interpretation over phone calls. This feature makes it easier to communicate with people who speak multiple languages, and is useful in a variety of business and personal situations.

The gallery below shows the settings of the interpreter app and examples of its use.

*At the time of release, 13 languages ​​(17 regions) are supported, but more languages ​​will be added in future updates.

  • Supported languages ​​(regions)
    Simplified Chinese, English (India, UK, US), French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish (Mexico, Spain, US), Thai Vietnamese
  • Note:
  • If the tap to voice input feature is enabled, both speakers must tap their respective microphone icons each time they speak.
  • If the tap to voice input function is [Disabled], if the first speaker finishes speaking after tapping the microphone icon, the other party's microphone will be automatically enabled after that person finishes speaking.

Text calls and real-time interpretation

Two functions are available during a call: "Text Call" and "Real-time Translation".

the formertext callis a feature that transcribes calls and communicates with synthesized voices, and the audio is converted to text and processed on-device.
This feature is useful, for example, when you don't want to answer an incoming call from an unknown number, or in situations where it's difficult to make a call, such as on a train.
If you enable this function, your voice will not be heard by the other party, but it will be played as a synthesized voice (male and female voices can be selected) to the other party. The other party's utterances are automatically converted to text and can be viewed in chat format.
However, since the voice is immediately recognizable as a synthesized voice and the response feels strange to the other party, it seems that this function is limited to applications such as communication with unknown callers.

For the phone appreal-time translationIt also has the following functions: When you turn on this function, what you say in Japanese will be converted into foreign languages ​​such as English, Korean, and Chinese.
For example, when you call a hotel at an overseas destination to confirm your reservation, you can communicate smoothly even if the other party speaks in English and you speak in Japanese. What you say is converted into text one by one and instantly translated and communicated to the other person.
A series of processes such as speech recognition, translation, and speech synthesis are performed on-device, and everything from utterance to playback of translated audio is processed in real time. It seems that you can have a practical conversation with someone who speaks slowly, like a hotel receptionist, but since the exchange is done using an artificial voice, just like a text call, I think there is a high possibility that the other person will think you are suspicious. I will.
Therefore, this function is just a support tool to help you communicate in a language you don't speak while traveling.

Note that the initial settings for "Live Translation" are "Setting"in,"useful function」>「advanced intelligence」>「Telephone" and then "live translation” (on by default).
Before you start using Live Translate, you can choose your language, the language of the person you're speaking to, and the type of translated audio.

Below is a test example of using real-time interpretation in a phone app.

  • Supported languages ​​(regions)
    Simplified Chinese, English (India, UK, US), French, German, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish (Mexico, Spain, US), Thai Vietnamese
  • Note: Other features include:
  • mute audio: You can block the other party's voice or your own voice during a call so that you only hear the translation.
  • Language and voice presets for each user: You can set the language and voice for calls to specific phone numbers or contacts.

chat assist

Galaxy AI's chat assist is available for all SNS apps such as LINE, Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, Messenger, Mixi, +Message, etc.
Tap the Galaxy AI icon in your keyboard's menu bar and select Chat Translation, Writing Style, and Spelling and Grammar options from the pop-up menu. Depending on the options you select, Galaxy AI will instantly perform the task live on your device.

The gallery below is an example of using Chat Assist's "Sentence Style" in the Line app.

The gallery below is an example of using Chat Assist's "Chat Translation" in the Line app.

Translation function compatible with third-party apps

By using the Samsung keyboard, you can also translate the text you type.
The following is an example of usage in the LINE app.

Translation in Gmail

The gallery below shows examples of how to use Translate in Gmail.

Take photos with 30x digital zoom with Galaxy S24 out camera

The Galaxy S24's out-camera is equipped with a 30x digital zoom function using super resolution technology.
I tried shooting the night sky with the out-camera setting "Intelligent Optimization" set to "Highest" for image quality optimization and "ON" for scene-specific optimization.
The gallery below is a photo of the moon zoomed in 30x. I was impressed that I was able to clearly capture the craters on the moon!

The gallery below is a photograph of a daytime landscape (inside the red frame) zoomed in 30 times. It was installed offshore 1 km from the Shonan coast (Hiratsuka/Nijigahama). University of Tokyo Hiratsukaoki Comprehensive Experiment Tower was able to be photographed.
However, at 30x, the image quality seems to be poorer. As expected, it is inferior to the Galaxy S24 Ultra, which supports digital zoom up to 100x.

Shooting with Galaxy S24 front camera

The gallery below is a selfie taken in a bright place (home) and a dark place (store).
The F value of the front camera of the Galaxy S10+ that I used before is 1.9, while the F value of the Galaxy S24 front camera is 2.2, so in dark places the Galaxy S10+ front camera seems to take brighter pictures. In fact, even if you take pictures in a dark place with the flash on the Galaxy S24's front camera turned off, the pictures will be quite bright. This may be due to improved sensor performance and AI image processing capabilities.
