Samsung, known for its speedy software updates in recent years, appears to be taking a step back with the rollout of One UI 7 based on Android 15. While Chinese competitors are already issuing stable Android 15 updates, Samsung has yet to release even the first beta of its new interface. However, a recently leaked timeline sheds light on when users can expect the much-anticipated update.
Delayed but Worth the Wait?
Rumors suggest that the delay is due to Samsung working on significant changes to make One UI 7 the best version yet. While this has raised excitement, it also leaves many Samsung users impatient. Thankfully, the leaked timeline offers some clarity on what’s coming.
Leaked Timeline for One UI 7 Beta
- First Week of December 2024: The beta program is expected to kick off with the Galaxy S24 series.
- Late December 2024: The beta will reportedly expand to the Galaxy S23 series, 2-3 weeks after the initial release.
- Uncertainty for Older Models: While it’s unclear if the Galaxy S22 series will get the beta this year, the Galaxy S21 family is confirmed to be excluded from the beta program entirely.
Stable Release Timeline
The beta program is rumored to last about two months. The final stable version of One UI 7 is expected to roll out in February 2025, after the launch of the Galaxy S25 series. Samsung has already confirmed that One UI 7 will debut on the S25 lineup, meaning no other devices will get the stable update before then.
What This Means for Users
Samsung’s delayed rollout may frustrate some, but if the company delivers a polished, feature-packed experience, the wait could be worthwhile. For now, Galaxy users eager to test One UI 7 will need to be patient, especially if they own older models.
