One UI 5 Beta

[Galaxykit]

Anyone on the One UI 5 beta? Read somewhere online that you could sign up somewhere here but can't seem to find anything about it.

Not in Singapore. Korea and US only.

Any idea when will it be released in Singapore?

[alanngwl]

No idea. Dun think it will come.

As consumers that have bought S22 ultra spending top dollar it would be good if Samsung will also allow us to get access to the beta program

[alanngwl]

Paying big money does not mean getting beta program. The support for it is the issue. Cause people will demand for beta then demand for support on beta when things go wrong.

Let's get this straight - beta programs are usually joined by advanced users and not just everyone. Everyone knows that joining a beta program is at your own risk. Its a public beta for a reason.

[alanngwl]

Oh. Public=Everyone. So if Samsung starts a public beta here, they cannot stop anyone from joining. I previously use a phone which has beta release like every week and I still see users who are not advanced or even call themselves advanced but demanding for support.

The problem is Samsung lack of resources to support beta in Singapore.

[Sanky]

I get that public=everyone but the typical user that would sign up for those would be an enthusiast.
Another fruit company that competes with Samsung is able to manage this. Also please remember that people who sign up for these things are actually helping Samsung in a way to ensure that the OS launch goes smoothly by reporting all the bugs in advance.
Lack of resources would be an excuse in this globally connected world!!
