The development of the One UI 8 For Samsung Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ And Galaxy S25 Ultra He continues, but the launch of the stable version will not take place at any moment. After the previews of the past few days, today we have a confirmation directly from Samsung: the One UI 8 Beta 4 is coming. We see When It will be distributed and what we know, while a surprising firmware for the series appears Galaxy S24.
The One Ui 8 Beta 4 is around the corner, while Galaxy S24 …
The One UI 8 based on Android 16 made its debut with the launch of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7, Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 FE, but has yet to arrive on the other devices of the manufacturer as a update. The beta program for the Galaxy S25 series has started for a while, and for a few weeks the tests seemed to have slowed down a lot, given the “stall” on the beta 3 (launched at the end of June with few changes).
Last days the rumors focused on the imminent launch of a beta 4, and apparently this will be: on the official Korean forum of Samsung, a manager of the program was apologized for the delay and remarked the importance of feedback to achieve a more stable version; In addition, he said the team is working hard for Release the One UI 8 Beta 4 next week.
The first to receive the One UI 8 Stable as update will certainly be the smartphones of the Galaxy S25 series, but this does not mean that in the meantime Samsung has left the other devices behind. Even if a beta program has not been opened (and perhaps it will never be, this time), the tests on the Galaxy S24 series: according to what reported by @Theonecid On the X, two firmware indicated such as the test servers stable (no “Z”), designed for US and Canadian markets (S928usqu4cyg9/S928uoyn4cyg9/S928usqu4cyg9 And S928wvl4cyg9/S928WOYV4CYG9/S928wvl4cyg9). Something similar had happened at the end of last month with the Galaxy S25.
In short, it cannot be excluded that this time Samsung can directly release the stable version of the update for other models without going from the public beta (it would not be the first time). Could the Galaxy S25 series tests be sufficient for other devices? We will probably know it in the coming weeks.
The appointment for the One UI 8 Beta 4 for the Samsung Galaxy S25 is still set for next week: if everything goes well, it could be the latest version before the stable release, which could take place in August. We remind you that in Italy it is not possible to officially adhere to the beta program, even if you can still try Android 16 with manual installation.
