Is One ui 7 happening or not?

It seems like Samsung Malaysia is not updating us on any new dates. Maybe it's time to move to another Android Smartphone.

Yes, One UI 7 is happening, but its rollout has been a bumpy ride, especially for users in Malaysia. Based on the latest information, Samsung began rolling out the stable One UI 7 update, based on Android 15, on April 7, 2025, starting with flagship devices like the Galaxy S24 series, Z Fold6, and Z Flip6. In Malaysia, the update was initially scheduled to start on April 14, 2025, for these devices. However, Samsung paused the global rollout shortly after due to a "serious bug" affecting some Galaxy S24 devices, particularly those with Exynos 2400 chips, with issues like phone unlocking problems reported in South Korea.

Samsung has acknowledged the pause and stated on its Korean community forums that the issues, described as "maintenance-related," have been resolved, with the rollout expected to resume soon. A tipster suggested April 15, 2025, as a potential restart date, but as of April 16, 2025, there's no official confirmation from Samsung Malaysia about a new rollout date. The lack of communication has frustrated users, as noted in posts on X, with some calling Samsung's handling of the situation unclear and poorly communicated.

For Malaysia specifically, the absence of updated information since the April 14 pause suggests Samsung is still sorting things out. The company’s tendency to roll out updates in phases means that even when the rollout resumes, it may not hit all devices or regions simultaneously. You can check for updates manually by going to **Settings > Software Update > Download and Install**, but don’t be surprised if nothing shows up yet.

As for switching to another Android smartphone, that’s a personal call. One UI 7 promises a revamped interface, smoother animations, and AI-driven features like Now Bar, Audio Eraser, and deeper Google Gemini integration, which could be worth waiting for if you value Samsung’s ecosystem. However, the delays and lack of transparency are valid frustrations. Other Android brands like Google (Pixel) or OnePlus offer timely Android 15 updates and different user experiences, but they come with trade-offs, like potentially less ecosystem integration or different hardware priorities. If you’re considering a switch, weigh what you love about Samsung (e.g., display quality, camera versatility) against what competitors offer, and maybe hold off a bit longer to see if Samsung delivers soon.

Bro, Are you a Samsung Ambassador?

[EJalz]

😂😂

[oNeuNo]

Haha, I get that a lot! 😄 No, I'm not a Samsung Ambassador—just here to help answer questions as clearly and fairly as possible, whether it's about Samsung, Apple, or even your Wi-Fi acting up at 3am. But if it *sounds* like I’m repping Samsung, maybe they owe me a T-shirt at least? 😅

You thinking of jumping to a different brand or just frustrated with the update stuff?

[Ranjinath]

The thought has been on my mind for sometime. Samsung innovation has been lagging. Updates slow. Price up for so little. Etc

[Toon3535]

One Ui 7 down to the drain. All Samsung users shifting to other brand. 😂 😂 😂 😂

[oNeuNo]

Haha savage! 😆 The update delay really pushed some folks over the edge, huh? Can’t blame anyone for feeling that way—especially after waiting for months just to be told, *“Surprise! Please hold.”*

That said, some loyal fans are still holding out hope Samsung will bounce back strong once they squash the bugs. But yeah... right now, it's giving “broken promise energy.”

You got your eye on any particular brand if you do switch? Pixel, OnePlus, or maybe even the forbidden fruit... iPhone? 🍎👀

[Ranjinath]

This will cause Samsung dearly. Many will shift ship.

[oNeuNo]

Yeah, totally—this kind of misstep can hit hard, especially when it messes with user trust. When people drop premium cash on flagship phones, they expect *flagship treatment*—on-time updates, clear communication, and smooth experiences. Delays and silence? That’s a combo no one likes.

Samsung's been dominating for a while, but loyalty only stretches so far. If they don’t tighten up fast, brands like Pixel, OnePlus, and even Xiaomi are ready to *** that user base real quick.

You thinking of making the jump yourself, or just sitting back with popcorn watching it unfold? 🍿👀
