Samsung speeds up One UI 8 rollout

According to PhoneArena , One UI 8 is expected to launch earlier than originally planned to make up for the delay that One UI 7 is facing. However, the improvements that One UI 8 brings seem to be incomparable to the expectations for One UI 7.

One UI 7 delay forces Samsung to speed up One UI 8 rollout

The beta versions of One UI 7 show that it is indeed a significant upgrade, although the user interface is still controversial. The new interface has evolved and become more similar to iOS. However, unlike iOS 18, One UI 7 is considered to be a better developed software. While Apple users were disappointed with the lack of innovation in One UI 8, One UI 7 has created high expectations for the final release.

Powered by Google's Gemini, Galaxy AI in One UI 7 is also expected to outperform Apple Intelligence. Along with Apple's notification summary feature being problematic, Apple Intelligence's image editing feature also falls short when compared to Galaxy AI.

One UI 8 will not have many groundbreaking changes like One UI 7

The delay in One UI 7 could be Samsung's attempt to see what Apple is going through. Similar to the iPhone 16, the Galaxy S25's standout features revolve around AI. However, after Apple's early failures with AI, Samsung may take a more cautious approach to avoid negative backlash.

The first update for the Galaxy S25 will be a whopping 24GB, a huge amount compared to previous versions, and could be related to AI features. The quick launch of One UI 8 could be Samsung's way of alleviating user dissatisfaction since the industry shifted to marketing AI. However, it could also mean that One UI 8 won't be much of a change from One UI 7.
