One UI 5 stable, there is a date: on the Galaxy S22 already in mid-October?
One UI 5.0 proceeds quickly towards the release on the stable channel, but obviously there is still to wait. After all, Android 13 – on which Samsung’s proprietary interface is based – has recently been available on the Pixel, and you’ll have to be patient until the beta program is completed. The first smartphones of the Korean brand to have received the beta 1 were Galaxy S22, S22 Plus and S22 Ultra at the beginning of August, then it was learned that the tests – in this case internal – are also underway on the Galaxy S20 and S21, and the second beta it was released right now in an increasing number of countries (no Italy, for now).
In short, the work is progressing rapidly, and more and more owners of top-of-the-range Samsung smartphones are wondering when it is time for the release of the stable version of One UI 5 based on the latest release of the Google operating system. An answer – obviously unofficial, therefore to be taken as a simple rumor – is provided by @RoderSuperaccording to which the update it will arrive on the stable channel on 17 or at least on 19 October on the following smartphones:
- Galaxy S22
- Galaxy S22 Plus
- Galaxy S22 Ultra

The times coincide with the first rumors that had begun to circulate in late June, and seem to be plausible. Last year, for example, One UI 4 debuted on the then flagship Galaxy S21 in mid-November. In the meantime, however, Samsung will have to complete the beta program smoothly, not only releasing updated versions and increasingly closer to the stable release, but also extending the availability to other smartphone models – Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4, to name a couple.
