A new version of Samsung’s One UI will be released in accordance with tradition along with the following significant mobile Android OS update. The name of it is One UI 5.0. After completing the rollout of One UI 4.1 for existing devices in 2023. Samsung will introduce One UI 4.1.1 in tandem with its Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 foldable phones. It will be followed by one UI 5.0.
Update: We now have our first look at the One UI 5.0 design thanks to a fresh leak. Iteration two will include new features, improved animations, and other improvements. One UI 5.0 will be based on Android 13albeit it’s too soon to say with certainty what features it will have. For a few non-Samsung devices, the latter OS version is in preview mode and may provide an early look at some of the features One UI 5.0 will offer.
More UI modifications are included in Android 13 and several UI components, such as the settings and power shortcuts, are moved to the Quick Settings menu. The customization possibilities for Material You may be increased by Google. While it’s impossible to predict exactly what One UI 5.0 will take from Android 13. Google’s firmware already hints that it will use elements from earlier One UI iterations. For instance, a new setting for flashlight brightness has been added to the preview releases of Android 13.
One UI 5.0 Release Date
Recent development: In August, Samsung introduced the One UI 5.0 beta program. Probably in October of this year, the final firmware will be released. One UI 5.0 Beta must run on Android 13 in order to be released. To put it another way, One UI 5.0 will be released when Samsung is ready to make Android 13 widely available.
The Samsung RAM Plus feature gained customization options with the One UI 4.1 upgrade, bringing additional RAM up to 8GB. The One UI 5.0 upgrade, which is based on Android 13 and will considerably increase performance, is what customers anticipate will make that feature truly effective.
