samsung one ui 5.0 beta opened

Hey, Samsung! We were waiting for your confirmation on the One UI 5 since Google announced the Android 13 operating system at the annual I/O 2022 event. A few days back, an alleged One UI 5.0 Beta banner screenshot radically increased our hype, but you’ve not officially opened it that day.

Amid a lot of confusion, we were waiting for the official One UI 5.0 Beta program announcement sometime in mid-August or nearly the Stable Android 13 launch, which could happen in September. But, thanks Samsung! You’ve finally opened the One UI 5.0 Beta for Galaxy fans quite earlier than expectations.

Starting August 5th, the South Korean tech giant has started letting the Galaxy S22 series smartphone users join the One UI 5 Beta program, based on Android 13. The Beta program has begun first for German consumers, while Samsung has not taken a long time to expand it to the US and South Korea.

Samsung officially confirmed through its developers’ site that the One UI 5 Beta program will be opened in seven countries globally including China, Germany, India, Poland, South Korea, the US, and the UK. Therefore, Samsung, it’s time to offer the same treatment to the remaining four markets as well.

Inspired by Android 13, Samsung’s One UI 5 Beta firmware brings plenty of new features, privacy improvements, and user interface tweaks across the whole system, which are listed in the official changelog. Meanwhile, we expect Samsung will make more improvements alongside adding new features with future One UI 5 Beta builds.

Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra users can now access the Android 13-based One UI 5 Beta update, while the Galaxy S21, Galaxy Z3, and Galaxy Note 20 series users are also waiting for the same treatment.

Google is yet to launch Android 13

Previously, it was reported that the Android 13 would be officially launched in late July 2022 but later on Google published the Android 13 security bulletin revealing that the next OS will come along with the September 2022 security patch.

Apart from the security patch, Samsung seems to fast with the Android 13 update deployment for the Galaxy devices. The One UI 4 Beta was started in mid-August, while the Stable rollout began in November, just about a month later of the Stable Android 12 debut.

Biden rushes CHIPS Act deals ahead of Trump’s presidency

Samsung Chip Biden US

Samsung is trying to secure CHIPS Act subsidies before Donald Trump takes charge. Joe Biden introduced CHIPS and Science Act to boost semiconductor business on American soil. However, the President-elect is a big critic of the CHIPS Act.

Bloomberg reports that the Biden administration is rushing to finalize CHIPS Act agreements with Intel and Samsung. Notably, Samsung and Intel are set to receive direct subsidies of $6.4 billion and $8.5 billion, respectively.

During his election campaign, President-elect Trump heavily mocked the CHIPS and Science Act. It is expected that Trump could put tariff on semiconductor manufacturers and nullify subsidies before disbursment.

Concerns have arisen that semiconductor companies, which have invested heavily in the U.S. over the past four years, might not receive subsidies, or that U.S. companies like Intel could be prioritized.

Intel is an American company, which could be unaffected by Trump’s presidency. As the President-elect prefers an “America First” policy, it’s an alarming situation for Samsung Electronics, which bases its headquarters in South Korea.

Since the CHIPS and Science Act is considered a key industrial policy of the Biden administration, this move is seen as an effort to finalize binding contracts and distribute promised subsidies before the administration changes.
