Quick Share gets facial recognition and can suggest photos to share with people who are in them. Samsung is also updating its cross-device sharing with updated audio broadcast and storage share.

Audio Broadcast allows users to share audio with nearby Bluetooth LE audio devices using Auracast. The feature also supports sound transmission through your phone’s microphone, which Samsung is advertising as ideal for guided tours and events.
