UI 7

[S76]

People stop moaning about this UI 7 you wil get it when is ready.

I don't mind waiting for it, but what's frustrating is the lack of communication from Samsung. They haven't even mentioned anything about a fourth beta until yesterday or today. That's the annoying part. Things like this should be communicated through socials or the Members app.

It's been a month since the last beta and now they are doing another one. They must been the last of the manufactures to release A15. Google already have released A16 beta 1. It's just a money grab

Maybe consider switching to ios

I think a reality check is what's needed. Google will always release first as that's where the initial code base stems from and the other OEM build the customisations and skins on top of that.

All the info about beta 4 has only come from tipster ice universe. Granted they normally get it right.

The thing with the beta is that it comes with no guarantees from Samsung and is purely opt in to try and help make the final version as good as it can be

The following is just my personal opinion but I feel Samsung have actually done a really great job with this beta. I have done the last few and this has been the first time I have really seen no game changing bugs that stop me using phone as daily driver.

The beta should be about submitting bugs and letting Samsung fix as quick as they can. The wait will make things better for all of us not moaning that's it's not released. The world has bigger issues

it makes me realise I will never join a beta program again! ever! this is so sloppy and messed up, the features on the s25 is completely different to the s24, we should have had another beta by now, or an official release. they have totally made a mess of this. so we have to wait till march for an official release. usually an official release in done within 2 months or less. I always get a new phone every 2 years, so I skipped the s25, I'll wait for the s26, it's embarrassing to samsung that Google has already in beta for android 16, and we are only on 15. they need to sort themselves out.

The android 16 beta is for developers not the public. The rollout has been poor this year though for Samsung. The S24U will be my last Samsung as all they concentrate on now is AI functions that I don't use. I've upgraded every year since the S3. I upgrade for the cameras. They don't seem to care that they are 28th in the camera rankings anymore.

You need to get a grip and learn a bit about software development. Android 16 has next to no major new functionality to it. Allowing Google to release it to developers earlier. They're also shifting to earlier in the year releases to coincide with their device releases.
Samsung's OneUI 7.0 is a ground up redevelopment. As in, they're starting from scratch. This takes A LOT of time. As they have been clear on from the very start of it's development. The work, and testing that goes into major redesigns like this, is huge, costly and time consuming. And Samsung also, shifting OneUI releases to coincide with releases of their new devices, but this shift had to come later to fit the new S25.
What would you prefer, a buggy unfinished 'official' OneUI 7.0 that is released before it's ready. Or a stable one that comes later..? Samsung chooses the latter

Not sure why you are so combative about people expecting just a tiny bit of communication from Samsung about when their £1000+ device will get a software update, we have been in beta for over 2 months.

It definitely is not a "ground up redevelopment"
