Samsung One UI 7 release timeline revealed: delay, beta update details at SDC 2024 | Tech Tips
One UI 7 release date was announced at the Samsung Developer Conference (SDC) 2024, in San Jose, USA. This concerns the stable update as the beta rollout and testing will happen before that. So, if you want to experience the new features ahead of the official release, you can find the steps to join the One UI 7 beta program below. Let’s also find out why there is a delay in the One UI 7 release as stable One UI 6 (based on Android 14) rolled out in November 2023.
One UI 7 release date: stable and beta
At SDC 2024, Samsung disclosed the One UI 7 stable version will be “released next year with the new Galaxy“. So, in 2025 with the Galaxy S25 series launch.
As for the beta version, the rollout begins by the end of this year. Samsung Galaxy S24 series will be the first to get it, followed by the Galaxy S23 lineup. Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 users can also expect a One UI 7 beta update this year.
How to join One UI 7 beta program
Before we proceed, please ensure you have a backup of your phone data as beta versions can be buggy. Also make sure your device has enough charge, storage space, and a strong internet connection.
Now, here’s what you have to do:
Step 1: Download the Samsung Members app from the Google Play Store or Samsung Galaxy Store. Sign in using your Samsung Account.
Step 2: Tap on Notice and then tap on Registration for One UI Beta Program.
Step 3: You will have to fill up an application form and submit it. That’s all.
Note, currently the One UI 7 beta is not out, so, you won’t see the registration option now. But, when it is released, you will get a notification from the Samsung Members app.
Why the One UI 7 delay? New features?
Although Samsung hasn’t explicitly disclosed the reason, it said at SDC that it is working to “seamlessly integrate Galaxy AI features into daily activities“.
Meanwhile, a moderator on Samsung’s Korean community revealed last month to a user that “many discussions are still ongoing due to new features, thus causing the delay“.
