Google has already published Android 16, which is available for its Pixel devices. For its part, Samsung already offers the ONE UI 8 operating system, based on Android 16, on its latest folding smartphones. This new operating system has also been tested in beta for models in the Galaxy S25 series since May. And, the good news is that the Korean giant has just announced an extensive list of devices that will be entitled to this update.
In an advertisement on its website, the manufacturer indicates that the BETA test program of One UI 8 will also be available for models of the Galaxy S24 series, the Galaxy Z Fold6 and the Galaxy Z Flip6 from next week in Korea, in the United States, in the United Kingdom and India. In addition, even if you do not live in one of these countries, know that Samsung should therefore offer the update all over the world, once the tests in beta is completed.
And that’s not all, since, later, Samsung intends to offer its operating system based on Android 16 on even more smartphones. According to the manufacturer, the availability of One UI 8 will be extended to new devices, including models in the Galaxy S23 series, the Galaxy Z Fold5, the Galaxy Z Flip5, the Galaxy A36 5G, the Galaxy A55 5G, the Galaxy A35 5G, and the Galaxy A54. And this list does not seem to be exhaustive.
Samsung emphasizes AI
Android 16 has many important news. But, with regard to its One UI 8 version, Samsung continues to focus on artificial intelligence features. “” “One UI 8 offers smarter and more practical AI experiences thanks to multimodal capacities that include the real -time context of users and allow more natural interactions. When associated with the Galaxy Buds3 or Buds3 Pro, users can activate Gemini from Google by voice or pressing one of the atria at length. Designed to complete the different Galaxy form factors, one UI 8 improves productivity and efficiency while offering personalized and proactive suggestions adapted to each user“Indicates the manufacturer.
Samsung also announces that it will start to deploy the stable version of One UI 8 on compatible products in September, starting, of course, with the Galaxy S25. In addition, One UI 8, based on Android 16, will also be offered on more Galaxy Watch watches, in addition to the Galaxy Watch8.
In any case, after the flop of its operating system based on Android 15, which has arrived very late, Samsung catches up with Android 16. Previously, Samsung indicated that it could accelerate the development of One UI 8 thanks to better collaboration with Google. “Thanks to open communication, Samsung and Google have actively shared their respective design systems and their real -time information return, thus accelerating software development that made one UI 8 one of the first user interface platforms to adopt Android 16″said the Korean giant in May.
