One UI 8: Cleaner typography, refined widget design, better spacing for one-hand use.


🖐️ Ergonomics & Reachability

One UI 7: One-hand mode works but feels like an add-on.

One UI 8: More native — quick-access menus and edge panels optimized for thumb reach.


🔋 Battery & Heat

One UI 7: Stable but moderate optimization.

One UI 8: Enhanced thermal control and adaptive power saving for longer in-hand comfort.


🎮 Real-World Usage

One UI 7: Good for everyday use, occasional micro-lags in heavy multitasking.
