One UI 6 Design Concept: Ideas for Samsung to renovate Quick Settings and Notification Panel
Samsung is internally working on the Android 14-based One UI 6 software. Earlier, we’ve seen alleged One UI 6 test firmware builds for the Galaxy S23 lineup, suggesting an early debut of the Beta program. Meanwhile, concept creators now share design ideas, which Samsung could apply in One UI 6 design.
Quick Settings and Notification Panel are the two most useful parts of the user interface. Samsung currently offers neat and clean panels with circular toggles integrated with the notification panel. However, both sections just got refinements over the past few versions, and now require a design renovation.

Two concept creators shared their idea of how the Samsung One UI 6 software’s Quick Settings and Notification Panel can be designed. Both are inspired by Google’s stock Android design, which features toggles in large horizontal tiles for better visibility and access.

Samsung is expected to start the Android 14-based One UI 6 Beta program for the Galaxy S23 series by the end of July. After the initial introduction, the Beta activity will continue to run for about three months, with joining new models such as the Galaxy S22, S21 and foldable phones.

Earlier, the Galaxy S23 series users received the One UI 6 Beta 3 Hotfix, days after the Beta 3 release. As the changelog is getting downsized with each Beta, it can be assumed that Samsung’s software development is on the right path and we will soon see the Stable release.
I also want to give up on Samsung because I haven’t received any updates for One UI 6 Beta3 so far. Samsung China’s efficiency is too low。
