Samsung has ended the beta program and begun rolling out the stable One UI 9 Watch (Wear OS 7) update for the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, the company announced after releasing six beta builds over almost two and a half months.
The update is live first in Samsung’s home market of South Korea and is available to units that were enrolled in the beta as well as those that were not. The One UI 9 Watch beta program had opened in August and the Galaxy Watch 8 models were the first smartwatches to receive it.

For the Galaxy Watch 8 40mm non-cellular model, the stable package is 2,009.66MB in size and carries firmware version L320XXU2BZJ7. Going by Samsung’s past software rollout patterns, the company is expected to expand the update to other countries over the next few days.
Users should receive the update via the usual software channels on their watches; Samsung has not published additional model-by-model details in this announcement.
