Samsung is slowly but surely testing One UI 7.0 for older Galaxy models. Although the stable version has only rolled out to the Galaxy S25 series so far, test builds have been popping up for other devices. Surprisingly the latest is the entry-level Galaxy A15. The phone has been spotted running One UI 7.0 in Samsung’s Remote Test Lab (RTL).
What’s RTL, and why does it matter?
RTL, or Remote Test Lab, is a virtual testing environment where developers and testers can try out software on devices without needing the physical hardware. Recently, users noticed the Galaxy A15 running One UI 7.0 in RTL, which means Samsung is actively testing the update for this device.
However, don’t get too excited just yet, as it doesn’t guarantee the update will roll out to actual Galaxy A15 devices anytime soon. Samsung is still in the testing phase, and it could take several weeks before the stable build reaches users.
According to recent reports, the Galaxy S24 FE is expected to receive the stable One UI 7.0 update on March 31st. It’s unlikely that the A15 will receive the update before the S24 FE, given Samsung’s usual rollout pattern for major updates.
What’s new in One UI 7.0 for the Galaxy A15?
The Galaxy A15 launched in late 2023 with Android 14 and One UI 6.0, so One UI 7.0 will be its first major update. Users can look forward to new features like:
- Split mode for quick settings and notifications
- NowBar
- More customization options for the home screen and lock screen
That said, don’t expect AI features like those on the Galaxy S25 series. The Galaxy A15’s hardware likely isn’t powerful enough to support advanced AI capabilities.
