One Ul 8.0: Features, Eligible Devices and Release Date

[b_asil]

One UI 8.0 is the next big software update for Samsung Galaxy smartphones and tablet devices. It will bring improvements over the existing version, and the journey to this new software isn't easy for the Samsung due to some serious challenges posed by One UI 7.0. Samsung has the world's most popular Android ecosystem, but the current One UI doesn't follow its reputation. It's not about features or bugs or something related to software development, instead, it's the sloppy rollout. The Korean tech company usually announces One UI upgrade at the annual developer conference, but its 2024 edition only brought a brief One UI 7 intro without any meaningful revelation about the official release. Instead, the company focused on Galaxy AI, Samsung's futuristic technological advancement. In mid-October, Google announced Android 15, marking a reverse countdown for One UI 7 rollout that led to a beta release in early December.

To be mentioned, Samsung launched One UI 16 beta in August 2023, followed by a formal revelation at SDC23 and OTA distribution by the end of the year. So, last year, Samsung not only reversed these two practices but pushed the OTA rollout to 2025. Amid this rescheduling, Google dropped a bombshell by announcing the Android 16 preview in November. That means, the next Android OS began test journey even before Samsung's One UI 7 (Android 15) beta program. This situation has garnered massive attention from Samsung smartphone owners, as well as criticism on the slow rollout phase. Earlier this year, we saw the first signs of One UI 8.0 reference in an app code, and it wasn't enough to turn users' disappointment into excitement due to the delayed software upgrade practice.

Through January to March, Samsung kept the One UI 7 beta program limited to the Galaxy S24 series and released several beta updates with improvements. Its debut was set in April on existing flagships, and eventually, it happened.

While One UI 7 arc was moving forward, Samsung also gave us a glimpse of One UI 8 through an early development build leak. It indicates that the company wants to keep up the pace with Google for the next version. It is possible that the Korean tech firm has developed these two software simultaneously, which distracted its focus on a time- bound software delivery.

This week, Google rolled out the 4th Android 16 beta, the second platform stability update, nearing the final launch. Meanwhile, Samsung will continue the software testing, and we'll see more of the test builds.
