- Samsung has not been testified for beta Android 16 updates for Galaxy S25 users.
- The company has confirmed that an UI 8 son will land at some time next week.
- A Samsung beta manager apologized late and assured users that additional testing would result in a more stable release.
Naturally, flagship Samsung users are eagerly awaiting an UI 8 stable rollout, starting with the latest Samsung foldable and soon is expected on devices like the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Philip 6, along with devices like the Galaxy S25 and S24 series.
In terms of priority, the Galaxy S25 series will be in the next line to get a potentially stable One UI 8 update. Samsung launched the One UI 8 beta program for the Galaxy S25 users in May, with a new beta version every fifteen days. However, it has been a month after Samsung dropped the third beta update, indicating users that a stable version may be after that.
It turns out that the beta has not ended at all in testing the new software. The company has announced through its Korean forums that an UI 8 son 4 will end next week. A Samsung beta manager apologized late and assured users that additional testing would result in a more stable release.
Meanwhile, a new UI 8 blood has appeared on Samsung test servers for the Galaxy S24 models of the United States and Canada, suggesting that these devices may soon get a stable Android 16 refreshment.
There is no official release date for the stable version of an UI 8, but considering how much beta 3 has performed, especially on the S25 series, this is not far away.
