Gaming HubHere’s a clean breakdown of what changed from One UI 4.1 → One UI 7 and why it feels like a downgrade:
---
🔥 Features Samsung Removed or Nerfed
1. Manual Priority Mode (Game Booster)
One UI 4.1:
You had full control — set CPU/GPU priority manually for max performance in games.
One UI 7:
Removed. Samsung now forces "smart" optimization and background routines, which often reduces performance and increases lag/heat.
➡️ Reason: They say it's for “battery efficiency,” but users see it as a downgrade.
---
2. Screen Recorder Inside Game Booster
One UI 4.1:
You could record high-quality gameplay with Game Booster controls.
One UI 7:
Completely removed from Game Booster.
You have to use the system screen recorder, which has fewer options.
---
3. Block Notifications While Gaming
One UI 4.1:
You could block ALL notifications during games — perfect for focus.
One UI 7:
Removed from Game Booster.
Now only the generic Do-Not-Disturb options work, and it's not as strong.
---
4. Game Plug-ins (Performance Tuner, GPUWatch, Game Booster Plus)
One UI 4.1:
Samsung let users install Game Plug-ins to boost performance, reduce lag, customize FPS, and get advanced controls.
One UI 7:
Gone for most new devices.
Game Plug-ins are still on Play Store, but Samsung blocked most features from working.
➡️ This is one of the biggest complaints of 2024–2025.
---
🎮 Why Samsung Is Doing This
To comply with global power efficiency & thermal regulations
To avoid overheating lawsuits
To make performance “consistent” at the cost of customization
To push users toward their new Game Optimization Service (GOS)
But users see it as removing the freedom we used to have.

Gaming HubWhy Samsung Feels Disappointing (One UI 4.1 → One UI 7)
Samsung removed several gaming features:
Priority Mode — gone
Game Booster Screen Recorder — removed
Block Notifications While Gaming — removed
Game Plug-ins (GPUWatch, Performance Tuner, etc.) — disabled or unsupported
These changes make One UI 7 feel like a downgrade for gamers because Samsung is forcing “automatic optimization” instead of giving users control.
