Samsung began rolling out the stable One UI 7 update earlier this week, starting with the Galaxy S24 series. The rollout went live in Korea and was expected to go live in more markets on the same day, but that didn’t happen right away. The company is finally bringing the update to more regions, starting with Europe.
The One UI 7 update is now reaching the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra in several European countries, including Germany, the UK, Poland, Italy, and Hungary. We suspect that the update is rolling out across European countries. The update carries the firmware version “BYCG” and includes the April 2025 security patch, along with a host of new features and improvements bundled with One UI 7.
Samsung initially released the update to Galaxy S24 series beta users, but within hours, it began rolling out to non-beta users as well. For beta users, the update weighs just around 450MB since they already have most One UI 7 features installed on their devices. For non-beta users, the update size is approximately 5GB, so it’s advisable to connect to a Wi-Fi network before downloading.
If the update notification hasn’t popped up on your Samsung device, head over to Settings > Software update and tap the Download and install option to check for latest updates. Before you install the update, ensure that your important data is backed up already and the device has at least 30% battery, so that it doesn’t power off during the firmware installation.

One UI 7 coming to more devices this month
The exciting One UI 7 update is currently available for the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip 6, and Galaxy Z Fold SE in select regions. By the end of April, the update is expected to reach more devices, including the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Galaxy Tab S10 series, Galaxy Z Fold 5, and Galaxy Z Flip 5.
Mid-range phones will start receiving the update from next month. Samsung aims to complete the One UI 7 rollout by the end of June. By then, Google will have released the stable version of Android 16. Samsung also appears to be gearing up for an early One UI 8 release, as multiple One UI 8 builds have already been spotted on internal test servers. This move could help Samsung make up for the One UI 7 delay and reinforce the trust it has earned over the years.
