Google reached the second stage of Android 15, as it finished its Developer Preview phase to enter the beta stage and made Android 15 Beta 1 available to download. Since Android 15 means the arrival of Samsung’s One UI 7.0, let’s check the status of Samsung for its forthcoming latest iteration, ‘Android 15-based One UI 7.0.
Google mostly introduces its latest major OS updates early in the year’s second half, since the giants are actively working on the next Android OS update; the expectation is the same for the Android 15 as well.
Google has reached the Beta 1 phase; what’s Samsung One UI 7.0 Beta Program?
Transparently, Samsung is the brand that maintains its legacy of updating its Galaxy device with the latest software updates, whether these are major OS updates or general security patches. It hardly delays rollout. As soon as Google appeared close to the stable release of its Android update, Samsung also started announcing its latest Android version-based One UI beta program, this time turning to Android 15-based One UI 7.0.
Deep down somewhere, Samsung might have started working on the iteration of One UI 7.0 since Android 15 has already reached the beta phase.
Although Samsung doesn’t have a constant policy to roll out the latest One UI’ beta before or after the stable release of the Android version, since it avoids delay, as per the scenario, it starts rolling out the latest One UI beta updates. For instance, last time Google was late to release the stable version of Android 14, in that scene, before the stable release, Samsung started rolling out its latest Android 14-based One UI 6.0 beta.
Samsung One UI 7.0 Beta Program Expected Release Date
Usually, Samsung delivers its latest Android version-based One UI updates sometime in October. The expectations are the same for Android 15-based One UI 7.0, whereas the beta program could begin almost a month before the stable release in September 2024. Once Android 15 gets stable, Samsung will also release the Android 15-based One UI 7.0.
First One UI 7.0 Beta Will Be Available for Galaxy S24 Series
The Galaxy S24 series devices are the first in line to get the One UI 7.0 update, and then the rest of the high-end Galaxy devices will start getting the update. On the other hand, Samsung is already setting up the launch of its next-generation foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, which would also be in line to get the One UI 7.0 update in the first batch.
