Key Points:
- Samsung has begun rolling out One UI 9, its custom version of Android 17, starting with the Galaxy S26 line and new foldable models, with the update preinstalled on the Z Fold 8, Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Z Flip 8.
- The Galaxy S25 and Z7 series are expected to receive the update by the end of September, while many other Galaxy models, including S24, S23, previous foldables, A series, tablets, and rugged phones, will get it later this year.
- The Galaxy S22 and S21 FE will not receive One UI 9 as they have reached their limit of four major Android updates.
- One UI 9 introduces several AI-driven features like My FanCam, Now Nudge, Motion Assist, and Privacy Alerts, along with enhancements such as a customizable quick settings panel, improved document scanning, and a new search bar option on the home screen.
- Users should check for the update under Settings > Software update, ensuring they have sufficient storage, Wi-Fi connection, and battery life, as the update can be a large download (around 4GB for some models).
