Based on Android 15, Samsung’s One UI 7 represents a significant shift from their usual release timetable. The beta program ended after just one month, having been launched in December of last year. Samsung has now released further details about the One UI 7 rollout for Galaxy smartphones and tablets ahead of the release of the Galaxy S25. Find out which models will receive the update initially.
One UI 7 will come to S series
Samsung is trailing behind in the implementation of Android 15, which is bad for a company that generally sets the pace. Xiaomi and OnePlus have already released their updates, while Samsung appears to be taking its time. After launching last month, the One UI 7 beta ended last week, but what about the stable version?
According to Samsung’s most recent press release, on January 22, 2025, the new Galaxy S models will receive the stable One UI 7 update. Translated, earlier flagships, such as the Galaxy S24, S23, S22, and S21, will have to wait their time, while the Galaxy S25 series is expected to come pre-installed with One UI 7. And those who own Galaxy S20s? I apologize, but Android 14 was the end of your life.
Devices like as the Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip 6, and Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra are noticeably absent from the roadmap. With Samsung’s history, we will likely learn more after the Galaxy S25’s release, which is expected to come pre-installed with One UI 7. However, for the time being, there is a significant silence, which disappoints those who anticipate more frequent updates from Samsung.
Other samsung Galaxy series?
Although Samsung has not yet released an official list of Galaxy devices that will receive Android 15, we can speculate. Although the deployment for these smartphones is probably going to lag behind the flagship updates, One UI 7 should ultimately make its way to mid-range and budget models based on their software strategy.
For now, we have put together a list of Galaxy tablets and smartphones that should get the upgrade, with an emphasis on models whose software support lasts until 2025 and beyond. Naturally, this list is merely conjectural and will be revised as soon as Samsung officially announces the lineup.
Galaxy A series
With Android 15, Samsung’s versatile Galaxy A series is about to receive a major update that will bring the newest features to these well-liked mid-range phones. This significant update is anticipated for many recent A series models as Samsung continues to fortify its software support policy. From better photography capabilities to more effective battery management, the new Android version promises to improve the well-balanced blend of features that fans of the A series adore. Android 15 will deliver a new wave of enhancements to keep your Galaxy A handset feeling powerful and up to date when combined with Samsung’s One UI 7 interface.
