Android 15 rollout imminent: Will Samsung’s One UI 7.0 Beta follow soon?

Samsung One UI 7

I know that we all are waiting for the One UI 7.0 update, be it beta or stable, anything. It looks like we might receive some updates, not directly related to One UI 7.0, but related to Android 15, on which Samsung’s next custom skin will be based.

Google has confirmed and is going to start the rollout of the stable Android 15 update, reported across different tech news blogs and social media posts, including accidental confirmations from Google itself on the official blog, which is now retracted. Starting today, the update will gradually become available to all eligible devices across different networks worldwide over the next week.

Well, moving from Android 15, what about the One UI 7.0 – Can we get the early beta program? Let me answer this question below.

According to official announcements, Samsung plans to launch the One UI 7.0 beta program towards the end of 2024. The company hasn’t confirmed an exact date or month, just indicating it’ll be sometime at the year’s end.

Despite what was initially planned for the release schedule, it’s still possible that the One UI 7.0 beta program might launch sooner than expected. Typically, Samsung takes some time after the release of a stable Android version to customize its latest One UI version for the new update. If Samsung sticks to its usual schedule, we could expect a One UI 7.0 beta program announcement soon.

Keep in mind that Samsung hasn’t officially confirmed that the One UI 7.0 beta program will launch simultaneously with the Android 15 rollout.

By carefully testing the alpha build internally, Samsung intends to minimize bugs in the beta version, providing a smoother experience for participants.

According to serious discussions on social media and within Samsung’s official community, the One UI 7.0 is expected to introduce significant design changes, new functionalities like a revamped camera UI, support for satellite connectivity, and enhancements to the user interface, including a possible split notification panel.
