Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding the One UI 8.5 update and beta availability in the Middle East.

We understand your interest in receiving the latest software updates and beta programs as soon as possible. Please note that Samsung software updates, including beta programs, are released gradually and may vary by region, device model, and network partner approvals. Beta programs are also limited to selected regions to ensure system stability and proper testing before wider release.

Once testing is completed and the stable version is ready, it will be rolled out gradually to supported regions, including eligible devices in the Middle East.

We recommend keeping your device updated and checking regularly via:
Settings > Software update > Download and install
or through the Samsung Members app for official announcements.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue working to improve the user experience.

I got it. But Samsung is a big brand, and it seems like you are just sleeping on it. I am not naive; in this AI generation, there is a little waiting game, and I know you are capable of releasing it in a day, just like Apple. Lame excuses everytime.

Another lame excuses again. In this advent of AI, no one will believe that you can't do in a day or even a week. It only means 2 things you are obsolete or full of incompetence

Tell them your marketing team is horrible. How many same individual really buying flagship phone every year? You know you can release it in one day for all.
