I was just wondering if you can get one ui 8 beta in canada? I have an s25 ultra and it's not showing up anywhere on members. And yes I've watched a lot of tutorials.

Betas are not available in Canada. 

If you know what you're doing, you could download the CORRECT US Beta to your computer & Flash it with Patched Odin. 

It's a bit more complicated than that, and considering that the Stable version for the S25 series will be available the end of September, it's not really worth it.

Just wait till the end of September, and you'll have it. We don't get beta in Canada because our population is so low compared to USA and India.

Canada doesn't get the Betas for a few of reasons. 

There's only ever been 7 countries that participate in the Betas. 

Samsung gets what it needs for the Canadian variant, because it's identical to the US version, hardware etc. 

Samsung Canada doesn't have the necessary support for Betas, as per Samsung Canada's Manager @Steve01 from a few years ago.. but nothing has changed in that respect. 

There's something like 185 countries on the planet (depending on the politics of the day), and Canada has a relatively tiny population compared to some others.

The beta on the 11th is more useful. 🙏

I'm not sure it's the same version, back in the day I heard that Canada asked to block some functions like FM Radio and saturation in Samsung Health. I may be wrong.

In Canada, we have an entity called the CRTC who makes these rules for our carriers who then have to adjust their dealings with vendors like Samsung. However, Samsung did build Canada's 5G core.

Sadly it's probably my last Samsung phone. We'll see. Always depend on what the others have to offer. It's the lack of Xperia that made me swap back then. I liked my S8+ then my S23U, but deception after deception, at least it's still working well. Sony Xperia ZL is the one I miss the most.
