In the concept, the primary quick settings panel got tweaked, with circular toggles abandoned in favor of Samsung’s default app icon shape. In addition, the placement is also changed to 2×4, followed by a brightness slider and a beautiful music player.
Once expanded, the main Quick Settings panel has enlarged toggles for enhanced reachability in placement of 4 toggles per row. Including the brightness slider at the bottom, the panel showcases twelve toggles per page, with horizontal scroll pagination.
Here are some additional images which show minor tweaks across user interface elements. In the One UI 6 concept, the menus are imagined filled with gradient colors, which Samsung adopted in One UI 5. There are high possibilities of these changes to arrive in One UI 6.
Concepts are based on imagination, Samsung could consider the suggestions shared by users, but it’s not certain. Meanwhile, it’s sure that the next One UI iteration will have more capabilities to compete with rival brands’ software including iOS and Google’s stock Android.
