One UI 5.0 and OxygenOS 13 are the newest custom skins based on Android 13. As Android is open source so smartphone makers can customize it to their needs and build it as the basis for their custom software skin like Samsung One UI and OnePlus OxygenOS. So, we are going to compare the quick settings of OxygenOS 13 and One Ui 5, but before that let us know what is Quick Settings.

Quick Settings

Quick Settings! It is a space where you can directly access the most helpful features of your smartphone and control them easily with a single click. On the Quick Settings panel, you can see several ‘tap to enable’ features, time, date, power off Menu, notification panel, and more.

Let’s begin the One UI 5.0 vs OxygenOS 13 comparison of Quick Settings.

One UI 5.0

With One UI 5.0 software, the company applied a Color Palette so Galaxy users can have a better idea of Android 13’s powerful dynamic theming feature, however, there are no layout changes have been made.

We can access the primary toggle of One UI 5.0’s quick settings by swiping down once from the home screen. By default, there is a pack of 6 toggles that cannot be reduced or increased, meanwhile, we can edit them as per our requirement.

Below the primary toggle is the brightness slider, from where you can adjust the brightness, on the left corner you can see the date, time, and on the right corner, you can see the Settings icon, sound, battery network, etc.

When expanded, the Quick Settings page shows 12 toggles with names in a 4×3 layout For more toggles, we can swipe left. Above the toggle, there are Device Control and Media Output buttons.

OxygenOS 13 

OnePlus amazing optimized Quick Settings Panel with the latest OxygenOS 13. The Quick Settings is divided into three sections – toggles, Media, and connectivity.

With a single swipe down on the home screen, you can access all three sections. At the top, there are the Media and Connectivity sections, side by side. While the other quick settings switches and the brightness slider are at the bottom.

After expanding the panel, more toggles are visible to you. You can edit all the toggles at your convenience.

The layout of the quick settings of Samsung One UI 5.0 and OnePlus OxygenOS is different, the rest of the features are the same. Another thing to note is that once you sweep, the OnePlus takes up more space than the Samsung, which shows the quick settings. Samsung covers 1/4 part of the entire screen, while OnePlus covers little less than half the screen.

Customization! That’s what Samsung smartphones are famous for. Galaxy devices have all the customization options you need on your smartphone. From the Lock screen to the Home screen, Quick settings panel, and volume panel, you can personalize your phone in every possible aspect.

However, what comes first in our mind when it comes to customization is theming. Android 12-based One UI 4.0 and One UI 4.1 comes with a Color palette which enables theming on the phone based on the wallpaper we set.

Samsung Color Palette:

Samsung Color Palette works when you set a new wallpaper or theme to your phone’s home screen or lock screen. As soon as you apply a new wallpaper, you got four different color combinations along with the system default theme.

You can also apply this color palette theme to app icons if you desired to do so. However, do note that it is only applicable to the Samsung apps, Google and other third-party apps will remain the same.

This color palette page also shows the three different sections where the color palette will be applied. These include the Quick settings panel, Samsung dialer, and Settings menu. Apart from these, all system applications get some sort of colors but it did not apply throughout.

Samsung Theme Park:

Now moving to Samsung Theme Park. This is a very powerful customization engine, here we can create our own theme, keyboard, quick pane, icons, as well as volume panel.

When you tap Create new, it takes you to the current wallpaper which is set on the home and when tapping Next, you will get so many different sections where you can customize the themes. You get the Lock screen customization options, icons, and keyboards.

The most interesting thing is customizing the quick panel. You can personalize every element – you can change the color of the background, toggles, notifications, and content, as well as change transparency.

Samsung Theme Park vs Color Palette feature: Conclusion

On Samsung Color Palette, you can apply four different color combinations whereas, on Samsung Theme Park, you get multiple colors. With Theme Park, you can customize your phone in many more sections than the Color palette.

Also, when you customise app icons using Theme Park, unlike Color Palette, the change applies to all system apps, even third-party. Thus, it’s clear that Theme Park is way better than the Color Palette.

What is Samsung Notification panel?

A Notification Panel is a place on your smartphone that lets you quickly access alerts, notifications, and shortcuts. It is hidden on the top of your screen but can be accessed by swiping your finger from the top to the bottom of the screen from any menu or application.

It further lets you expand the notification to view additional information, reply to a conversation, block/mute notifications, and more.

Samsung One UI 4.1 Notification panel:

No doubt, Samsung One UI 4.1 is the best custom OS available for Galaxy phones. It brought multiple new features along with countless changes. The notification panel on One UI 4.1 now has a neat and clean interface.

With One UI 4.1, the company brought the ability to show the Brightness controller on the notification panel itself. It means you can easily control the brightness of your phone, without opening quick settings panel.

Samsung One UI 5.0 Notification panel:

Along with all the One UI 4.1 notification panel features, the upcoming Samsung One UI 5.0 Notification panel will have subtle changes in design as compared to the One UI 4.1 and 4.0. The company has tried to deliver a clearer look while keeping a separate space for different groups of apps or priority ones.

One UI 5.0 Notification panel’s app icons have received minor optimizations such as a new solid round background shape. At the same time, the notification shade and quick settings also have a slight tweak to opacity.

Although these changes aren’t major but Samsung has really worked to bring users a clearer and more effective notification panel.
