Samsung One UI 7

Google Pixel phones will receive the Stable Android 15 update in mid-October. The latest OS remained limited to the Pixel devices till I/O 2024. There’s no info on when Samsung will debut its Android 15 Beta Program — One UI 7 — for Galaxy devices.

Following the I/O 2024 event, Android vendors including Xiaomi, OPPO, and OnePlus started Public Beta for their flagships, which Samsung has not joined. The company is still working on kicking off the One UI Beta program.

The Galaxy S24 series will surely be the first to get One UI 7 Beta sometime in August this year. The South Korean tech giant will then expand its Beta activity for other latest flagships including Galaxy Z Fold 6/Flip 6, and some older lineups including but not limited to the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy Z Flip 5, and Galaxy Z Fold 5.

Samsung One UI 7

One UI 7 Beta continued to be modified in development as Samsung sets “later this year” release. While Galaxy users await the Beta Program to kick off, the company is making radical changes to the user interface and other aspects of the software.

IceUniverse claims that Samsung One UI 7 Beta has modified much with the version ending XJW. It is the latest version that has many changes in terms of UI and appearance. The leaker notes that the new build makes the previously leaked videos meaningless.

Samsung has reportedly brought significant improvements to the One UI 7 Beta. The upcoming software is “full of flexibility,” setting the stage for a grand entry to set a new standard of user experience on Galaxy devices.

While the tipster didn’t note specific changes, notable improvements are likely in animations and motion fluidity. The appearance may have not been revamped much as Samsung already altered that segment in many ways, many times.

One UI 7 XJW leak via Ice Universe

The latest version of One UI 7, XJW, makes the previously leaked videos meaningless, because this version has changed a lot and is full of flexibility, and the previous versions can be thrown into the trash.

Earlier, a YouTuber revealed the One UI 7 interface and features. The video showed many major changes across the user interface as compared to the build that Samsung showcased at CodeLabs after the SDC24 keynote.

Later, we’ve also seen the animation fluidity of One UI 7 in a leaked video. As compared to the One UI 6.1.1, the next iteration has smoother animations, however, the final version is likely to bring it even closer to iOS animations.

Samsung One UI 7

Galaxy users eagerly await One UI 7 Beta but Samsung could take 15 more days for release. As we approach the “end of the year” deadline for Beta, the company is said to be taking another half of a month to start the Beta Program.

According to IceUniverse, Samsung will take “another half month” before One UI 7 Beta release. November has started today and we expect the Beta Program to be kicked off this month for Galaxy smartphone users.

Samsung officially revealed One UI 7 software during SDC24 in early October. We’ve witnessed some graphical visuals, showcasing the UI revamp. Meanwhile, Samsung has further revamped those UI changes within the internal Beta.

Last heard, Samsung wants to roll out a stable-quality build as the first Beta. It will ensure Galaxy users experience the One UI 7 with new features and user interface. However, the continuous delay is quite frustrating for eager Samsung fans.

One UI 7 will bring Android 15 to Samsung smartphones. In a recent development, the Korean tech giant published One UI Beta forums in the US community. It suggests the Beta activity is progressing towards a majestic launch.

Official One UI 7 Release

While Beta is about to start, you may miss out on getting the update. The reason is, the official version of Samsung’s Android 15 will launch next year. And the rollout for Galaxy devices would start only after the Galaxy S25 series unveiling.

Many Galaxy phones and tablets will receive the major firmware update next year. It includes flagship devices launched in 2021 and later. You can check a detailed list of eligible One UI 7 devices here to check your device’s compatibility.
