Google Pixel phones will receive the Stable Android 15 update in the coming weeks. The new OS remained limited to the Pixel devices till I/O 2024. This month, Samsung will likely open 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. In the meantime, the company is swiftly working on kicking off the One UI Beta program soon.

One UI 6.1.1 is the latest Galaxy skin based on Android 14. The Android 15-based One UI 7 will arrive on many Samsung devices later this year. While we are in September 2024, we already know Galaxy devices are eligible for Android 15.

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.
