Samsung has recently launched its latest smartphone software, Android 15-based One UI 7, which is exclusive to the Galaxy S25 series. The company will gradually roll out this software to other devices. Even though One UI 7 is taking time to roll out, the report suggests that One UI 8 is already being tested.
According to the tipster Tarun Vats’ post on X (formerly known as Twitter), the first One UI 8 internal test made for the Galaxy S25 series has been spotted on Samsung’s server.
He claims that it will come with S938BXXU1BYC1/S938BOXM1BYC1/S938BXXU1BYC1 as the build version. Vats says that One UI 8 development began two months earlier than usual.
One UI 8 is said to be based on Android 16, which company officials recently confirmed will launch in June 2025. It could be moved to Android Open Source Project (AOSP) on June 3, allowing developers to create custom versions for different devices and prepare it for release.
Recently, the South Korean company announced the expansion of One UI 7 Beta to more devices and regions. It is now available for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 in India, South Korea, the UK, and the US. Later this month, the beta will also be available for the Samsung Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy Tab S10 series, and Galaxy A55.
