Samsung has finally announced the rollout timeline of the stable version of One UI 7.0. The Android 15-based skin will begin reaching users in early April 2025.
One UI 7 will first reach the Galaxy S24 series, and then will be rolled out to older flagships and mid-range devices. Samsung has been preparing the beta builds for several flagship and midrange models recently, which include the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and the Galaxy A55.
The Galaxy S24 series was the first to receive the One UI 7.0 beta update in December 2024, with three additional beta updates released since then. Samsung plans to release a few more beta updates before releasing the stable version. One UI 7 is reportedly built from scratch, which is said to be one of the reasons behind this delay in stable rollout.
Another reason behind the delay could be the AI features (at least for the flagships), most of which require cloud-based processing. This creates a need for a more robust infrastructure to support the functionalities for the vast number of devices. Nonetheless, there’s not much information on which AI features will be added to the older S and Z series flagships.
What’s new in One UI 7.0?
Apart from the AI features, One UI 7.0 brings a massive design overhaul, which includes a new Quick Panel UI, updated animations and transitions, fresh iconography, and the Now Bar, which displays ongoing activities. The updated animations are apparently much lighter than those in One UI 6.1 and can offer a much better visual experience, especially when you’re in a hurry.
The update also introduces a redesigned camera app with easier-to-access controls for more convenient one-hand use. Additionally, users can look forward to a new battery icon and charging animations.
