Recently, UniverseIce posted a video clip through his X account, showcasing back-to-back app open and close animation, probably of One UI 6.1. Samsung is said to be testing the new software on Galaxy S23 Ultra, but it’s tough to believe it’s available on a consumer device.

As you have seen in the video, the Galaxy S23 Ultra animation and system fluency functionalities are way better than what we have in One UI 6.0 iteration. The app icon elasticity is mesmerizing, at least over the 6.0 version, closing the gap with its biggest rival, Apple’s iOS.
The Galaxy S23 series recently received its first post-One UI 6 firmware update in China. The same source recently posted on his X handle, the arrival of December patch, with firmware weighing about 500 megabytes. It looks like China version of One UI 6 has improved animation with this recent release.

Ice earlier revealed that One UI 6.1 brings various animation and system fluency-related improvements over One UI 6.0. Keeping battery efficiency in mind, the company has mastered the animation along with equipping the One UI 6.1 with Galaxy AI. Here’s what the tipster said:
- The animation frame rate has been improved again compared to One UI 6.0, which means that the animation will look smoother and more delicate.
- Removed the background blur effect, I think Samsung considered that it would increase power consumption.
- The background scaling animation is greatly improved, it becomes non-linear, and the wallpaper scales greatly, which is larger than iOS’s scaling, making the animation look very vivid.
- When the icon is scaled back to its original position, there is a more obvious elastic animation.
- Continuously open and close the app without any glitches. It is very stable and smooth.
- The change from One UI 6.0 to 6.1 is very great, and I believe you will soon realize what I said.
Samsung has initiated the rollout of the highly anticipated One UI 6.1 update for its flagship devices, starting from March 28. While owners of older flagship models such as the Galaxy S22 series, Galaxy Z Fold 4, and Galaxy Z Flip 4 eagerly await the One UI 6.1 update, a report suggests it will arrive in early April, possibly within the first few days of the month.
According to the Canadian network carrier Rogers, a new update with the March 2024 patch will be released for the Samsung Galaxy S22 series, Galaxy Z Fold 4, and Galaxy Z Flip 4 smartphones on 10 April 2024. In addition to the security patch, the update is expected to include One UI 6.1.
