Android 9.0 and One UI highlights include:
Night Mode Unicode 11.0 New card style UI with curved edges.
Redesigned Quick Settings with rounded buttons.
Updated lock screen w/ a new clock design.
Improvements to the Samsung Dialer.
Improvements to Always on Display Revamped Samsung Messages.
Bixby Home UI changes including curved borders.
Floating keyboard.
The Galaxy S9’s Android Pie update also brings the Galaxy Note 9’s Scene Optimizer for the camera which automatically enhances colors to fit the photo’s environment.
We also expect the update to bring the Galaxy Note 9’s Flaw Detection feature. If you’re unfamiliar, the Galaxy Note 9’s software will detect flaws like blurriness, blinking, and smudges in your photos. Overall, the look and feel is a lot different than Android Oreo’s. And while we expect many of these UI changes to stick, Samsung’s feature list could change over time as the company tests the update.
