Samsung’s Galaxy AI Notifications could make iOS 18.1’s Notification Summary feel outdated. The company is expected to bring a brand new feature with One UI 7. The addition will redefine how you interact with ongoing notifications.

Tipster ChunBhai revealed Galaxy AI Notifications feature will support a handful of languages other than English. Apple Intelligence’s Notification Summary is currently supported in English only, with support will be expanded sequentially.

The rumor suggests Samsung’s AI Notifications could be supported in English, Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, Japanese, and French. This way, Galaxy users will have a far better experience as compared to its Apple Intelligence counterpart.

Meanwhile, Samsung hasn’t teased such an AI-powered feature for Galaxy devices. We are only getting key inputs in the form of leaks and rumors. However, the input is coming out from a credible source whose many leaks have proven true.

Samsung’s Galaxy AI already supports over a dozen languages. The company is regularly working on the expansion of supported languages and dialects. The recent rollout of Dutch will be followed by three more languages by the end of the year.

Apple also lags behind in terms of AI feature availability on iPhone models. Apple Intelligence is only available on iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 lineups. Other models are out from the race due to, citing hardware limitations.

On the flip side, Samsung is bringing select AI features to Galaxy A (mid-range) smartphones. Full-fledged Galaxy AI experience is available on flagship models as old as released in 2022, with more epic experiences on the way.

Why Samsung has delayed the One UI 7.0 beta program?

Samsung aims to ensure that the One UI 7.0 update is as stable as possible before starting the One UI 7.0 beta program. This focus on stability might be in response to previous updates where users experienced issues like battery drain, animation lag, and overheating. By carefully testing the alpha build internally, Samsung intends to minimize bugs in the beta version, providing a smoother experience for participants.

According to serious discussions on social media and within Samsung’s official community, the One UI 7.0 is expected to introduce significant design changes, new functionalities like a revamped camera UI, support for satellite connectivity, and enhancements to the user interface, including a possible split notification panel. These require additional time for development and integration.

Samsung is reportedly going to start the One UI 7 Beta Program for Galaxy S24 users in mid-November 2024. Notably, at SDC24, the company officially announced to make the Beta update available at the end of this year for developers. But What does One UI 7 Beta mean for you?

First of all, the beta program offers you a chance to try out the new features of One UI 7 and Android 15 before the official version is released in 2025. Many users have been eagerly waiting to see what cool features and enhancements are coming, and this beta will give you a sneak peek at that.

Samsung has already created a special page on its US community for the One UI 7 beta for the Galaxy S24. In addition, there’s also a forum page for the Galaxy S23, which suggests that more users will have the opportunity to join the beta.

Some reliable tipsters have also hinted that the beta could start within a couple of weeks, which means we’re getting closer. The Beta Program is a great opportunity for users to explore new features and help Samsung improve the software before the major update release.

Keep in mind that not everyone may be able to join the beta. In past years, the program has been limited to users in countries like India, South Korea, the US, Germany, the UK, and some more.

However, it’s still unclear whether Samsung will release the One UI 7 Beta update first for developers or also for flagship devices. While Samsung hasn’t confirmed the exact release date for the One UI 7 beta, several leaks suggest it could launch in mid-November.
