Samsung could delay One UI 7 for a sweet surprise!
Samsung One UI 7 could be delayed due to the One UI 6.1.1 update. For the first time, the company is considering offering One UI’s x.1.1 update to non-foldable devices. Interestingly, the One UI 6.1.1 will be packed with new Galaxy AI features for the S24 series.
Recently, IceUniverse revealed that One UI 6.1.1 will release for the Galaxy S24 series. The tipster specifically noted that the One UI 7 will not arrive very early. Google recently rolled out Android 15’s Beta 3 for Pixel phones, which reached the Platform Stability milestone.
Galaxy users are eagerly waiting for the One UI 7 Beta Program to begin. However, Samsung has some other plans to elevate the user experience and uplevel the Galaxy AI. Even before the major upgrade, the company appears to be deploying new AI-powered features.
One UI 7 will not arrive very early, because there are special circumstances this year.
Samsung will first push One UI 6.1.1 to S24 series. One UI 6.1.1 contains many new AI functions, which is not a small upgrade. I got the exact time to start pushing these updates to S24 users…— ICE UNIVERSE (@UniverseIce) June 19, 2024
Galaxy AI of One UI 6.1.1 might be inspired by iOS 18. Apple teased some interesting AI features that look quite promising in everyday usage. Similarly, Samsung may introduce some deeply integrated tools powered by artificial intelligence and Generative AI.
A powerful text-to-image generator feature might be available in One UI 6.1.1. The function is expected to be optimized with the S Pen of your Galaxy. As a result, users would have an enhanced image generation experience with the power of the S Pen stylus.
Still, we guess Samsung will release the One UI 7 Beta by August in any case. The company has to begin the update rollout of Stable version by October so it can be finished within the year ends. That’s it for now, I will keep you posted on further developments!
HD images of Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Watch Ultra, Watch 7, Buds 3 Pro have leaked. Courtesy of Evan Blass, we now have official images of Galaxy Unpacked products, two weeks ahead of the official unveiling.
Starting with the HD images of Galaxy Watch Ultra, Samsung has made it quite precious. It would feature Apple’s Watch Ultra-like bands, making it stand apart from the Standard and Classic variants.
The Galaxy Watch 7 continues to bring Samsung’s signature smartwatch design. It will have touchscreen bezels. The band may get upgraded with an Ultra-model feel but without dual clasp element.
The Galaxy Buds 3 and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro are also shown in all their glory. These products are also inspired by Apple’s AirPods, bringing stems and vents for multi-purpose enhancements.
Samsung has reportedly fueled the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro with Mercedez-like LED light strips on stems. However, it remains to be seen whether the LED will glow in Pure White or in RGB format.
Samsung will also launch the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6 foldables. The former retains the same design, while the latter will have a slightly wider cover screen, making it more useful in unfolded state.
Samsung is planning to release a new software update for the Galaxy S24 series soon to address the issue with the Gallery’s photo editing mode. The moderator has confirmed this information through a post on the Samsung community.
Users of the Galaxy S24 series have reported an issue with photo editing on the Gallery app after moving photos using the Smart Switch app. This issue is particularly noticeable when photos edited in the Gallery app’s editing mode are not saving properly after the transfer.
Samsung is already aware of this issue and is preparing to release a new software update to fix it. Users may soon receive a notification prompting them to update their device. It is expected that the July 2024 security update will fix this issue.
To update your Galaxy S24 smartphone, go to Settings and then scroll down and select Software Update. If an update is available, tap Download and Install to start updating your device. It is important to keep your device software up-to-date to ensure it functions optimally.
