Samsung Galaxy S24’s first Android 15 Beta isn’t releasing today

Samsung has not announced its Android 15 Beta for the Galaxy S24 series today. It was rumored that the company would release the first Beta of One UI 7 in certain markets. Issues in the internal build apparently caused a delay in the Beta Program.

One UI 7 will be based on the Android 15 operating system. Samsung has recently debuted the Android 14-based One UI 6.1.1. The mid-cycle version will be rolled out to select foldable phones and tablets in the next couple of weeks.

Galaxy S phones would also receive new features of One UI 6.1.1 software. Users not opting for Beta will be able to enjoy new Galaxy AI features. For general users, Samsung is expected to release the One UI 7 update by October this year.

As far as the Beta availability is concerned, it would launch in at least seven countries. Starting with South Korea and the US, the Beta Program will be available in China, Germany, India, Poland, and the United Kingdom.

The next big upgrade of One UI will revamp the user interface on Galaxy devices. Quick settings and the Notification panel will be separated. iOS-inspire home screen layout is also rumored to be a part of Samsung’s next One UI version.

Galaxy S24, S24+, and S24 Ultra will be the first to join the Beta. We guess the Program to commence later this week. In the meantime, Samsung might also announce the expansion of One UI 6.1.1 features to older Galaxy devices.

Apple’s Dynamic Island-like Dynamic Pill may also be seen in the One UI 7. The current status bar pill will be supported by some services. The tiny pill would also expand to the home screen to showcase additional info similar to Dynamic Island.
