Important Information
Samsung One UI 7 beta is only available for unlocked Galaxy devices on all carriers in the US. T-Mobile is the only carrier that allows beta testing on carrier-locked Galaxy S24 devices in the US.
Google silently extended Android updates support for the Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 series. Affordable “a” models are also eligible for extended software policy alongside the first-generation Pixel Fold foldable smartphone.
Initially, Google promised three years of Android upgrades for the Pixel 6 and 7 series. Now, the revised policy promises at least five years of Android OS upgrades for the Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 series as well as Pixel 6a, 7a, and Fold.
This year, Samsung announced the Galaxy S24 series with up to 7 years of software updates. The company replicated Google’s October 2023 decision to provide seven years of software support to the Pixel 8 and newer lineups.
With the revised policy, Google’s Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 series are now superior to the Galaxy S21 and S22 series. Both Samsung Galaxy lineups are eligible for four years of OS updates and five years of security patches.
Following the Android 15 rollout, the Galaxy S21 series will be rendered ineligible for new OS upgrades. However, the Galaxy S22 series will also receive the Android 16-based One UI 8 upgrade in 2026.
Meanwhile, the Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 will receive up to Android 17 and Android 18, respectively. It’s an entire two years of additional software support for Google flagships. It isn’t the peak support, but good for Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 smartphone users.
Longer Android updates are useless if…
Honestly speaking, such longer Android updates support is useless if brands can’t provide durable hardware. Our Pixel 7 Pro review unit developed a pink vertical line, which turned into a huge dead pixel spot, rendering the screen useless.
A similar issue occurred on the Galaxy Z Fold 4 too. The phone’s motherboard defected itself even without any kind of external reason. Therefore, smartphone makers should work on durability rather than promising years-long software updates.
Samsung fans, Enjoy! We have finally got the news we have been waiting for about the much-anticipated One UI 7 update. This major update promises to bring a host of new features and enhancements to your Samsung Galaxy devices, and here’s what you need to know.
The stable release of One UI 7 is slated to roll out alongside the upcoming Galaxy S series (Galaxy S25) devices in the first quarter of 2025. The timeline is officially confirmed by Samsung in a blog post.
It seems like, Samsung will also complete the One UI 7 rollout for the flagship smartphone (like the S23/S22 and Fold6/5/4) in the given timeline, as it will first come pre-installed with the Galaxy S25 series. As per the rumors, the Galaxy S25 series will be introduced in the Galaxy Unpacked event in late January next year.
One of the highlights of One UI 7 is its focus on personalization and control. The interface will boast a refreshed look, with a new notification system that allows for easier interaction right from the lock screen. Additionally, Samsung’s Now Bar will be a game-changer, providing instant access to necessary information without unlocking your device.
For those eager to test these features, the company has already started the One UI 7 beta program in select markets including the US, Germany, and South Korea. This initial phase includes the Galaxy S24 series, offering the latest Galaxy S series device owners a chance to experience and provide feedback on features like the redesigned camera interface, which adds more control over advanced settings.
The One UI 7 update also brings powerful AI enhancements. You will see features like advanced writing assist tools, allowing users to edit text directly within the OS, without switching between apps.
