One UI 9 Beta Program

[Tamaleman]

Hello there!!!, just want to ask if someone knows when the Beta Program for One UI 9 is going to become available here in Canada, I have seen that in other Countries is already rolling out, so just curious when that is gonna happen here, and how to sign up for it

Out of 195 countries, there are only 6 countries that are part of Samsung's Beta program. Canada is not one of the 6.

Never has been, and likely never will be.

What is that kind of discrimination? 🤣, is it because we say sorry too much?

[RedDogRabbit]

Sorry 😂

Nah, it's because we have the same hardware as the US, and they have 10 times the population, plus they have a lot more support than Samsung Members Canada... So Samsung gets what it needs from the US.

Hi Tamaleman,

Thank you for reaching out with your interest in the One UI 9 Beta Program.

Samsung Electronics has announced that the One UI 9 beta based on Android 17 and launching with the Galaxy S26 series is beginning this week in select markets including Germany, India, Korea, Poland, the U.K., and the U.S. At this time, Canada is not part of the initial rollout. We understand the excitement and truly appreciate your enthusiasm for early access.

We value your patience and passion for Galaxy innovation, and we look forward to bringing the beta experience to more markets soon.
