One UI 7 Beta Program: What to Expect
Samsung usually rolls out a Beta Program before the full release of its new UI which gives selected users an early access to test the latest features. If you’re a Galaxy user in one of the 7 countries (China, Germany, India, Poland, the Republic of Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States) then you might get a chance to join the Beta Program and be one of the first to experience One UI 7.
The Beta Program is expected to kick off in August 2024 just right after Android 15 enters its Public Beta testing phase on Pixel devices. This means that One UI 7 will be based on Android 15 which will bring all the latest Android features along with Samsung’s own enhancements.
