• Samsung is facing criticism for the delayed rollout and lack of communication regarding the One UI 7 update, with rumors of a Beta 6 release being dismissed as speculation, while Beta 4 is in development.
• One UI 7, based on Android 15, is expected to bring significant UI/UX upgrades, including new charging animations, a redesigned Now Bar, and a revamped Quick Settings panel, to a wide range of Galaxy devices.
• The update will also introduce features like a vertical app drawer, AI writing tools, call recording and transcription (for US users), and enhanced camera capabilities, though some features from the S25 series may be absent on older models due to hardware limitations.
• While the initial rollout may focus on premium devices, Samsung aims to eventually deliver One UI 7 to a broad spectrum of Galaxy phones, including entry-level models, offering a consistent user experience across its product line.
• The delayed One UI 7 release raises concerns about Samsung's commitment to its 7-year OS upgrade policy, particularly given the inclusion of the S25 series in the upgrade program while older eligible devices await the update.
Big dissapointment is di nila na meet yung yearly UI Update. Wala man lang confirmation bakit nadelay nang ganyan. Very suspcious pa na yung UI 8 is prefferable na agad nila. May marketing talaga na ginagawa sila sa S25 series hehe
3 years daw nila ginawa ang UI7, ibig sabihin UI3 palang denedevelop na nila UI7 pero ang nakakapagtaka bakit puno ng bugs tsaka wala naman masyado nagbago control center lang, tapos animation pinagmamalaki nila e sa app opening lang naman at closing app lang naman.
