Samsung S23 One UI 7

Samsung‘s One UI 6.1 update is set to begin rolling out for the Galaxy S23 series starting March 28, according to a report from Samsung Vietnam via @chunvan8888. This latest version of One UI unveiled alongside the Galaxy S24 series and has been eagerly awaited by users of older Samsung devices since then.

Despite promises of a release in the latter half of March 2024, no eligible devices have received the update so far. Hopefully, it will be available soon as there is almost half a month left.

Samsung devices that will receive One UI 6.1 at the end of this month are the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy Z Fold 5, Z Flip 5, and Galaxy Tab S9 series. While other compatible devices may have to wait until May or June.

The delay is particularly notable for non-flagship devices not launched in 2023. However, if there are further delays, Samsung might skip One UI 6.1 for some devices and instead update them directly to One UI 7.0 later this year.

As the end of March approaches, users of the 9 flagship devices will need to keep an eye on software updates as the update may be released at any time. Samsung is expected to do a wider rollout of One UI 6.1 in April.

While this release is still some time away, early signs of the performance improvements in One UI 7 have already surfaced for the Samsung Galaxy S23.

A recent Geekbench listing of the base model of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series running Android 15 and One UI 7 shows impressive benchmark scores. The device achieved 2109 in single-core and 5555 in multi-core tests.

These scores indicate that One UI 7 will deliver smoother performance, better efficiency, and enhanced multitasking. Notably, these benchmark scores are based on early builds of One UI 7 and do not indicate the start of the beta release.
