Lists of supported devices and countries eligible for One UI 8 beta testing
Owners of the Galaxy S25 series had already been testing the initial beta build in a few chosen regions when Samsung shocked its Galaxy audience by launching the most recent One UI 8 beta program. At the moment, the beta is accessible in four nations, with additional countries to follow afterwards.
Regarding previous deployments, Samsung has set aside seven nations—China, the US, the UK, South Korea, Germany, India, and Poland—to test the most recent One UI beta version for years.
Samsung eventually separated the beta distribution into two stages with One UI 7. The first batch of One UI beta was released in four regions—South Korea, Germany, the US, and the UK—with the exception of China. The two remaining regions—India and Poland—will be saved for the second phase of the One UI beta deployment.
Samsung is following the same approach for the One UI 8 beta rollout.
- Phase 1: Initial beta release is limited to:
- Devices:
- Galaxy S25
- Galaxy S25+
- Galaxy S25 Ultra
- Countries:
- South Korea
- Germany
- The United States (US)
- The United Kingdom (UK)
- Devices:
- Phase 1 is exclusively reserved for the listed countries.
- Only owners of the Galaxy S25 series in these regions currently qualify.
Interested Galaxy S25 owners can now register and test the most recent beta release thanks to Samsung’s recent improvements to the One UI 8 beta enrollment and participation process. The beta program is now available for the S25 family, but it will eventually expand to include more qualified devices.
