The One UI 8 beta is now accessible for Samsung Galaxy S23 and select other devices in certain regions. To participate, users need to log into the Samsung Members app and register their eligible devices for beta access. Once registered, the update will be available in the phone’s Software Update section. Samsung plans to extend beta availability to more devices, such as the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5, later this month, though specific update details for these models are not yet disclosed.
A survey shows varying user intentions concerning the beta: 10.53% are already using it, 42.11% plan to adopt it when available for their device, while 47.37% prefer to wait for the stable release. The One UI 8 beta, initially tested on the Galaxy S25 series, was launched in a stable version with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 in July. This software update introduces several new features, including a redesigned Quick Share interface and enhanced AI integration. Users should be cautious, as beta versions might contain compatibility issues, performance glitches, and bugs. It could be wise to wait for the final release for primary devices, but for those eager to explore, an early glimpse of Samsung’s latest software is available.
