Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge with Snapdragon X Elite SoC, Windows 11 appears on Geekbench
After the launch of the Galaxy Book 4 Series, Samsung is gearing up to add one more member to this lineup, as a new device called Galaxy Book 4 Edge has recently popped up on Geekbench. It means a newcomer is getting ready to enter the market with some sophisticated features and capabilities.
According to the information, the Samsung Galaxy Book 4 Edge has visited the Geekbench benchmark with Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon X Elite SoC, 16GB RAM, and Windows 11. Accordingly, the device has achieved an impressive 2,706 points in single-core and 12,646 points in multi-core tests.
Other than this, the benchmark didn’t reveal any further details about the upcoming device. But when compared with the Apple chip, the Book4 Edge is a clear winner against the Apple M1 and M2. However, it’s still lagging behind the Apple M3. Notably, this could also change when Windows 11 24H2 is optimized.
However, currently, it’s difficult to say when Samsung will unveil its next powerful laptop with advanced technology, but we can expect its launch later this year.

Samsung officially revealed a sneak peek at the upcoming One UI 7 software. The company confirmed final version will debut with the Galaxy S25 next year, while the Beta is probably coming to the S24 series by the end of this year.
Let’s discuss which Samsung device will be the first to get the One UI 7.0 update.
One UI 7 Beta is coming in 2024 while the Galaxy S25 will launch in 2025. This means the new One UI version will go live before the next Unpacked. However, the software may remain in the Beta phase till January Unpacked.
The Galaxy S24 series may be the first to get One UI 7, but not the final version. The Stable update is officially scheduled alongside the S25 launch. Hence, the next flagship lineup will be the first to come pre-loaded with the One UI 7.0 version.
SDC24 was so nice 🚀

The Galaxy S24 could be the first to receive the One UI 7.0 OTA and the S25 might launch with it right out of the box. No matter which device gets the update first, One UI 7.0 is set to bring some exciting features.
Well, users don’t care much about first and last. Samsung has heavily delayed this year’s software distribution. Therefore, the first priority should be a faster and more seamless rollout of the Android 15 update whenever it begins.
Pushing the update to the Galaxy S24 series and sequential expansion won’t be welcomed. Samsung must ensure all the compatible Galaxy phones (at least flagship) would receive the update at the same time – the same as Apple and Google.
One UI 7 – Simple, Impactful and Emotive
Samsung’s upcoming software significantly enhances user experience with new features, improved customization, and better performance. Galaxy users also expect smoother animations and enhanced battery management.
The One UI 7 could debut more options for themes, icons, and widgets to customize your Galaxy. New camera modes and easily accessible settings for capturing high-quality photos and videos will also be included.
Samsung has unveiled a new feature for its SmartThings platform called Home Insight at SDC24. This feature makes smart home management easier and more efficient by using artificial intelligence (AI).
Jaeyeon Jung, the Executive Vice President of SmartThings, explained that Home Insight is designed to understand how people live in their homes. It provides helpful home reports and personalized recommendations based on how you use your devices, your preferences, and even the time of year.
Samsung Home Insight makes it easier for people to manage their smart homes. For example, if you often forget to turn off the lights during the day, Home Insight can remind you to do so.
To make these features easy to access, Samsung introduced the Home Insight Widget, which will be available on the new Galaxy Tab S10. This means users can turn their tablets into a controller for managing various smart devices, all from one app.
It is expected that Samsung will soon expand the SmartThings Home Insight feature through a new update. Currently, you can access this feature in the Galaxy Tab S10 series.
Last month, Samsung launched the Galaxy Tab S10 series. The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra features a massive 14.6-inch panel, while the Tab S10 Plus sports a 12.4-inch screen. Both models have premium Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays and offer a vibrant yet natural viewing experience.

Following the recent SDC24 event, many attendees and tipsters have shared videos showcasing the early build of Samsung’s One UI 7.0 on social media. These videos highlight amazing new features and improvements of One UI 7, especially in the Samsung Camera app.
One UI 7 aims to make the Samsung Camera interface more simple and easy to use. A recent video highlighted the revamped look of the app interface, which features in early builds.
In One UI 7, camera modes like Photos, Videos, Portraits, and more are now placed at the bottom of the screen. This makes it much easier to switch between different modes while taking photos or videos.
Moreover, it brings significant changes to the camera controls. One UI 7 has introduced a single button at the bottom of the camera interface. This replaces the Night Shot option that is currently available in the One UI 6.1.1 software.
Users will able to see Camera control options like Settings, Flash, Timer, Aspect Ratio, and Motion Photo at the lower middle of the screen. This change lets users navigate the app more quickly and with less clutter on the screen.
Additionally, for those who prefer using their phone with one hand, some options are still available in the top right corner of the camera layout.
Notably, Samsung made these changes to the camera interface in the early build of the next One UI software, aiming to provide a more intuitive and enjoyable camera experience.
Samsung is going to release the One UI 7 Beta at the end of this year for developers and will make the stable version available alongside the Galaxy S25 series in 2025.
