Following a lengthy five months of beta testing, Samsung finally began rolling out the stable One UI 8.5 update in the first week of May. However, as always, the initial rollout was limited to Samsung’s home country, South Korea, but the global rollout kicked off just the next week on May 11.
The Galaxy S25 was the first phone to receive the stable update, and Samsung wasted no time bringing it to foldable phones and older Galaxy S-series phones. In fact, devices like the Galaxy S25 Edge and Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, which weren’t part of the beta program, also started receiving the One UI 8.5 beta alongside the beta devices.
Here’s a list of Galaxy devices that are getting the One UI 8.5 update:
- Galaxy S25
- Galaxy S25+
- Galaxy S25 Ultra
- Galaxy S25 Edge
- Galaxy S25 FE
- Galaxy S24
- Galaxy S24+
- Galaxy S24 Ultra
- Galaxy S24 FE
- Galaxy Z TriFold
- Galaxy Z Fold 7
- Galaxy Z Flip 7
- Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE
- Galaxy Z Fold 6
- Galaxy Z Flip 6
- Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition
The list should grow in the coming days and weeks as the One UI 8.5 update is officially confirmed to reach dozens of devices, including many mid-range and budget phones. We’ll update the list periodically to keep it fresh.
If your Galaxy device is on the list, the update may be ready for download. Head to Settings > Software updates and tap Download and install. If the update doesn’t show up, try again in a few days, as it rolls out in phases and may take some time to reach all users.
