Samsung was pretty inconsistent with the One UI 7 rollout, but things are already looking much better with One UI 8. The company has already kicked off the One UI 8 beta program, with the latest Galaxy S25 series getting the first bite — and its expansion appears to be happening a lot quicker than the previous version.
Galaxy S24, S23 series to get One UI 7 beta soon
According to tipster Tarun Vats (@tarunvats33), the Galaxy S24 series will get the first One UI 8 beta towards the end of June, but it could slip to July. The Galaxy S23 lineup could also join the beta program in early to mid-July. While it’s good to hear about the initial rollout plans, it’s wise to take them with a pinch of salt, as beta releases could always face delays due to bugs.
Samsung hasn’t officially shared its roadmap for expanding the One UI 8 beta to more devices, but there’s reason to believe things will move quicker this time. That’s because One UI 8 is a relatively minor upgrade compared to the much bigger One UI 7 release. However, it remains to be seen if the beta program will extend beyond the Galaxy S series.

Samsung has already confirmed that the stable One UI 8 rollout will begin this summer. Additionally, It has announced that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 will run One UI 8 out of the box. While no launch date has been announced, reports suggest that the newest foldables could arrive in July — and this shouldn’t come as a surprise, as Android 16 will be released by the end of this month.
While One UI 8 isn’t a game-changing upgrade, it’s still an important one for Samsung. After the bumpy and delayed One UI 7 rollout, this release is all about restoring user confidence and fixing the software glitches. Samsung has a real chance to prove that it can deliver timely, stable software updates. Read our complete story on why this minor upgrade is a majorly important one for Samsung.
