Frustrated over the delays for the One UI7

[Martinkda]

I'm so annoyed they're dragging their feet on this update. It feels like forever waiting for One UI 7 on my Z Flip 6. Everyone who owns a google device is getting it, why not us? This is getting ridiculous, and I'm starting to regret buying this phone. These flips and folds are premium devices yet Samsung just doesn't care about their customers, I'm seriously considering going back to my iphone 16 pro full time. Delays after Delays that's all it's been lately with Samsung....

What do you mean buggy by  software when you have already stated Google makes the software? You should pull up your socks. Anyone who has ever used iPhone knows how prompt they are with updates and especially for older models. How could you release ui for S25 and not the other models?

Pull my socks up? This is old news. Yes, buggy software. The S24 series was in beta testing, and they were finding issues, so why release it when it's not ready?

I see you don't have a grasp of how software development works. iOS has a system, and is very good at updates. The new UI 7 was built from the ground up based on the new hardware, so no—they can't just slap it on all their phones. They are in the process of doing the beta for the S23 and Fold series now—and guess what? Glitches are being found. It's outrageous you expect them to simply push it anyway.

Thank goodness there is a minority that cares why Samsung is delaying the release on older flagships for so long. This video shows how OneUI 7 runs faster and better on S24 ultra and Z flip 6 than on S25 ultra. Strange, because the S25 ultra has a Snapdragon 8 Elite, and we have the "weak" Snapdragon 8 gen 3

No, OneUI 7 is buggy on S25 ultra, not S24 Ultra or Z fold 6 or Z flip 6. Samsung released unfinished OneUI 7 on S25 series. All new AI features (except Now Brief) works better on S24 ultra and Z flip 6, according to this video

Which new hardware? Are you suggesting that the S25 is a complete new hardware and a breakaway from S24? 

[johnz237]

No. I'm not suggesting this. Besides a 40% faster NPU, 37% faster CPU, and 30% faster GPU, most of UI 7 is AI-based.

Reality is, it was buggy and not ready for release. The S25U was prioritized. That's it. Complain all you want, but that's the reality.

As a software engineering major, I feel I have a little grasp on the conversion. What do you have?

"I appreciate your acknowledgment that you specialize as a software engineer rather than a customer retention expert. However, a company of Samsung's reputation undoubtedly recognizes the critical importance of customer retention, especially in today's volatile environment of customer benchmarking. This understanding should inspire them to prioritize treating both existing and prospective customers with equal care, fostering loyalty while expanding their customer base.

To achieve this, they would need to approach their updates and innovations in a manner that unifies their customers, creating a seamless and inclusive experience. This strategy would ensure that all customers feel valued and integrated into one cohesive community. It's a principle worth reflecting upon!"

Did you use AI to write this?

Language change, manner change, and quotations?

Someone of your expertise and experience undoubtedly can extract valuable information from clutter and gutter. Check the information and make a commitment

Fun thing about that- no? Write with relevance.
