The next major update, One UI 7, Samsung’s custom Android skin has long been anticipated by Samsung lovers. With rumors swirling around on new features and improvements, there’s a lot of interest building up on what could be the biggest One UI update ever. In this post, we take a closer look at everything known so far regarding One UI 7 and what users can expect when it finally launches.
What changes can we expect in One UI 7
A leak from a Samsung insider, Ice Universe, says that One UI 7 is going to bring more changes to users than any version before. From redesigned icons all the way to enhancements in the drop-down bar, it looks like Samsung is trying to give users an experience refreshed and revitalized. Details are still really sketchy, but earlier rumors have pointed to some rather exciting new additions.
Visual improvements
One of the most highly-anticipated features of One UI 7 could be the vertical app drawer. It was available earlier through the Good Lock app, but this new layout is going to bring much more control to the users in terms of organizing and accessing their apps. According to rumors, Samsung is further working on a feature such as in-built App Lock for easier security around apps and their data by users.
Battery life optimization
One more priority of One UI 7 is the optimization of battery life. Using AI technologies, Samsung is going to enlarge the battery life of devices, ensuring that users’ devices will be available for a longer time without extra charging. That might prove rather revolutionary to people working much with their phones during the day.
Early testing and release date
At this time, Samsung is testing One UI 7 on the Galaxy 24, but reports reveal that it is in the early process and will contain bugs for sure. The next One UI 7 is going to be officially unveiled on October 3 in the Samsung Developer Conference 2024. Meanwhile, Samsung has already pushed One UI 6.1.1 with a big catalog of new features, which is very useful to keep the users satisfied enough as they wait for the big update.
