Are you eager to test Samsung’s latest software for Galaxy S25 devices? Well, we have good news for you. The company has officially started rolling out the One UI 8 Beta 2 update to the Samsung Galaxy S25 lineup. This new Android 16-based firmware is the next step in the refinement of the next major Android experience for Galaxy phones. It brings a host of bug fixes, performance improvements, and even a few new features.
One UI 8 Beta 2 reaches Galaxy S25 series, first in Korea
To start, this isn’t just a minor patch. One UI 8 Beta 2 aims to smooth out several rough edges from the initial release. A notable addition is a new user feedback feature designed to improve interpreter performance. This suggests Samsung is keenly focused on refining its AI and language capabilities, making communication even more seamless.
Beyond new features, the update addresses several common frustrations. Users should find fixes for:
- Text alignment issues: No more oddly placed text.
- Widget problems: Widgets on your lock screen should now behave as expected.
- Fingerprint recognition errors: Improved reliability for unlocking your device.
- Sound malfunctions during Bluetooth calls: Clearer audio when connected via Bluetooth.
- Notification alerts during gaming: No more unexpected interruptions while you’re focused on a game.
- Non-functioning errors in Galaxy AI weather and time wallpapers: These dynamic elements should now work correctly.
Furthermore, Samsung has also implemented improved software stabilization across various system apps, including the Camera one. This will be great for day-to-day usage. The beta program has also expanded its reach. It is now available in India and Poland, in addition to South Korea, the UK, and Germany. So, many more users can participate and provide feedback.
Google has just released its stable Android 16 build for Pixel devices. Meanwhile, Android brands like Samsung are hard at work adapting it to their devices. Fortunately, the wait for One UI 8 won’t be as long and traumatic as it was for One UI 7.
