Samsung's One UI 8, based on Android 16, is expected to roll out to devices starting in Summer 2025, possibly as early as July. This is a significant acceleration from Samsung's usual fall update schedule. While the One UI 8 beta program has already launched for the Galaxy S25 series (in late May 2025), the stable release will first debut on Samsung's new foldables (Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7) in July 2025. For the Galaxy A55 5G, while it's a priority mid-range device and has already received One UI 7 (Android 15), it will likely receive One UI 8 a few months after the flagship devices, probably in the second half of 2025. It's important to note that specific rollout dates can vary by region and carrier, but the general timeline suggests a summer/fall 2025 release for the A55 5G.
