It appears that Samsung is really close to officially revealing the leaks about its upcoming Android skin. To summarize, Samsung talked about One UI 7 during SDC24 last month. However, they didn't show the visual updates that are planned for this major upgrade.
Screenshots and Early Details
Nevertheless, images of One UI 7 have been circulating for several months in different forms. Recently, Samsung Spain was found sharing information about One UI 7. It's worth mentioning that the subsidiary has now changed the link to its One UI page, leading it back to the homepage. This suggests that they may have jumped the gun in showcasing promotional content for One UI 7.
Features and Changes
In any case, Samsung Spain described One UI 7 as having features like “more advanced and user-friendly icons," a redesigned lock screen, and an updated notification control center. Additionally, Samsung plans to continue relying on its Galaxy AI software, which includes tools like Zoom AI for photography and Live Translate during phone calls.
Energy Score and Future Plans
Moreover, Samsung intends to bring the Energy Score feature from One UI 6 Watch, which was launched earlier this year on the Galaxy Watch7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra (currently priced at $461 on Amazon). Unfortunately, Samsung will also be removing some features, including Dex for PC. Instead, they will encourage users to utilize Link to Windows as a replacement. As of now, Samsung is likely to launch One UI 7 beta versions next month, with stable versions expected to arrive in early 2025.
