Does anyone know when it will be out???

So got the latest Samsung s23 ultra. And no beta test. Should of stayed with a Google pixel. 

It should be open to ALL s23 users not selected ones. 

Why can't they add at bottom of update page beta tester. Like on computers.

I think it's just not available to us S23 ultra user just yet. I thought it was this week at some point that it was available in the UK, I'm sure I read that online. I'm just being patient

The invitation will be placed in the Samsung Members App for eligible phone's which are typically supplied directly by Samsung @bigears43 

I get why some owners want to join the Beta Programme and go through the Beta stages but this also comes hand in hand with possible stability issues and certain apps breaking or not working properly so isn't really for a phone a person wants to work seamlessly. 

If your phone meets the criteria then when the Beta is released you'll be able to join the programme.

Beta is overrated, don't stress mate.

Yes, you should have got a pixel and you could enjoy all of the wonderful things here https://www.androidpolice.com/android-14-beta-1-bugs-few-fixes-compilation/

Beta is ***** mate, I did it with my s22 ultra and won't again, it breaks banking apps and apps like netflix, Disney and prime video won't play in FHD or HDR. Can also be buggy in some other apps

That's Beta software for you

They are not going to add it at the bottom of the update page.
Mostly because most people don't know what Beta software entails on smartphones.
Plus as @Dave123456789, has, listed. Would create lots of issues.
Google make the Android software, so it's already OK to roll out to their phones. Though with my Pixel 7 Pro. Android 14 has been buggy.
Samsung keeping it small scale to start with will be easier to manage, and with Beta 2 etc will add further devices.

I did beta 2 years ago with S21 ultra from android 11 to android 12.

My phone went from a stable and fully working phone to one that wouldn't allow banking, random crashes, dropped calls, and generally a completely unstable phone that was unusable in daily use.

The bigger problem was that it wasn't possible on that beta to revert back to the stable android 11 release.

I said then... and again now... I will not beta test android releases again, especially if it is my only phone.

If I had an older model to mess around with the software then I would consider... but never again on my general use phone.

Good luck to anyone that beta tests the android 14 pre-release. Be prepared for instability and loads of bugs.
