Android 15 features raise concerns for One UI 7

Google is rolling out Android 15 for Pixel devices and Android partners will gradually adapt this OS underneath their custom skin but I am particularly curious about Samsung’s One UI 7.

This new Android version brings:

Private space – This will make a personal space in your device and hide sensitive apps. Users can access the private space once the device authenticates via biometrics.

Theft protection – It will prevent an unknown user from accessing a device or sensitive data by requiring authentication. It will prohibit actions such as disabling the SIM or Find My Device.

Improved multitasking for tablets Foldable devices – It has improved app access with the new always show taskbar feature. This will enable the user to stick to the taskbar even during multitasking.

These are some Android 15 and it may have plenty of small tweaks. However, the list of new additions in Android has shrunk so much, which is concerning for Samsung’s offering with the next One UI.

What to expect

At the Developer Conference 2024, Samsung shared some insights on One UI 7 without revealing much of the details.

The South Korean tech maker has announced a new user interface for the next One UI version. Additionally, some new AI capabilities will accompany this new graphical change.

The early hands-on leak has revealed the UI part but the features remain unknown.

With that being said, Android 15 also has a minimalistic array of new additions, which is taking my curiosity about One UI to the next level.

Although Samsung has a huge developer team to introduce new features but the small list of Android 15 features will make it challenging for the company to garner praise for the next software upgrade.

This brings me to which new Android features Samsung will adapt for One UI 7. Will there be only UI or some interesting showcase in the AI section?

We have to search for answers when Samsung releases One UI 7.
