When Samsung halted the One UI 7 update for its 2024 flagships, speculation grew about a possible delay for the 2023 flagships — namely, the S23 series and the 5th-generation foldables. But as it turns out, Samsung managed to fix the bug without causing any further delay for the older models.

A global rollout is expected in a few days

The Galaxy S23, S23+, and S23 Ultra are now getting the stable One UI 7.0 update in South Korea, soon after the resumed rollouts for the S24, Z Flip 6, and Z Fold 6. A broader rollout is anticipated over the next few days.

Sporting firmware version S91xNKSU6DYD9, the update is a hefty 5GB for non-beta users and about 1GB for those in the beta program, packing the April 2025 security patch. South Korean S23 users can check for it by heading to Settings > Software Update > Download and Install.

This update is actually a big deal for the S23 series, wrapping up the One UI 7.0 Beta Program and bringing a fresh, modern look. The package includes revamped app icons, slicker widgets for home and lock screens, and smoother animations that make swiping feel snappy. The battery icon has also got a new look, and there’s a cool charging animation to boot. Galaxy AI features are leveled up too, though specifics are still trickling in.

One thing is for sure: Samsung is wasting no time, at least when we’re talking about the flagships. If you’re outside South Korea and using one of Samsung’s 2023 flagships, just keep an eye on your notifications. This update is set to make the S23 series feel better than ever, with a polished design and AI smarts to match.
