Samsung Galaxy One UI Battery

One UI 7.0 is set to elevate your Samsung phone’s battery performance. The company has made significant improvements in Galaxy’s power management. The S24 Ultra lasts even longer than the most premium iPhone in certain conditions. The upcoming One UI version is said to bring some extraordinary improvements to your Galaxy’s battery life.

Credible Samsung leaker SamsonSir confirmed insane battery life improvements in One UI 7.0. It shows the company is not only working on interface revamp, but also intends to foster the battery performance of your Galaxy.

Galaxy S23 Ultra and S24 Ultra set battery life benchmarks in the Android world. All thanks to Snapdragon chips and well-optimized One UI software. The upcoming One UI 7.0 update is expected to bring notable improvements.

Background process management

Flagship Galaxy smartphone users often use multiple apps at the same time. Samsung’s RAM management allows them to start right from where they left off using the app. It leads to many apps remaining open in the Recents section.

The One UI 7.0 reportedly optimized the background process. It’s a key aspect which greatly impacts on the battery’s performance. If unnecessary background processes are hibernated, the battery life will increase significantly.

Galaxy AI could play a key role in understanding which app’s process should be limited. This way, the software will use less power from the Galaxy’s battery. However, the Beta builds might not show major battery life improvements.

One UI 7 Release Date

Samsung will release the One UI 7 update next year. Beta is coming by the end of the year, but the final version is set to be launched alongside the Galaxy S25 series. As of now, we haven’t heard any genuine input regarding the S25 series launch date.

Going by Samsung’s history, the Galaxy S25 series could launch in January or February next year. We’ve created dedicated pages to track the upcoming Galaxy S25 series’ specifications and price, which you can access here.

TSMC’s 2nm lockdown opens door for Samsung to lead US chip revolution

Published

Samsung Foundry

Recently emerged reports suggest that Samsung is shifting its focus to 2nm process technology. The company’s second-generation 3nm process hasn’t yet reached the production threshold yield rate, leading toward a potential cancellation.

TSMC’s 2nm process is in crisis as the Taiwanese government has firmly stated that TSMC cannot currently produce 2nm chips outside Taiwan. It is believed that TSMC will not be able to produce 2nm-class chips at its US fab for now.

Tom’sHardware citing TaiPeiTimes broke the news that TSMC can build advanced fabs in the US, Europe, and Japan, but it is not formally allowed to produce chips using its most advanced processes at its facilities outside Taiwan.

TSMC

Taiwan’s Minister of Economic Affairs recently attended a meeting of the Economics Committee in Taipei, where she stated, “Due to Taiwan’s regulations protecting its technology, TSMC is not able to produce 2nm chips overseas at the moment.”

Reports say that the Taiwanese law requires chip manufacturers to produce chips at their overseas facilities that are at least one generation behind the tech used at their local facilities, meaning 2nm will be produced in Taiwan first.

Notably, TSMC is investing $65 billion to build three chip fabs in Arizona, US. The first of these will begin operations next year, producing 4nm chips. The second facility, which could open in 2028, is expected to start production of 2nm and 3nm chips.

Donald Trump Returns…

The issue arises from the potential influence of President-elect Donald Trump. DigiTimes recently reported that the Trump administration may pressure TSMC to start 2nm production sooner on American soil.

Given Taiwan’s gov’s intervention, early production of 2nm chips may be difficult. Industry insiders believe that this move demonstrates Taiwan’s strong intention to keep its latest technologies at home, potentially increasing tensions.

If Trump targets TSMC, doors of opportunities will open for Samsung and others. The newly elected President also expressed his intentions to put tariffs rather than subsidies to pressurize chip makers to boost production in America.
