Samsung’s One UI 7 update has yet to roll out to older devices, despite months of anticipation. Currently, a beta program is active for the S24 family, and recent reports indicate the first One UI 7 beta build for the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 has been detected on test servers in Europe and India. While this hints at an expanding beta program, it suggests a lengthy wait for stable releases. Samsung has not disclosed a timeline for One UI 7, leading to concerns about its current update performance compared to previous years.
We have been eagerly anticipating the rollout of One UI 7 for older Samsung devices for several months, but it has yet to arrive. The beta program for the S24 series has been ongoing for a while, and it appears Samsung is preparing to extend it to the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6.
A source on X has indicated that the initial One UI 7 beta build for these two foldable devices has been detected on Samsung’s test servers in Europe and India.

This suggests that the stable release may still be some time away, particularly if the foldables receive a number of beta builds in the coming days.
So far, Samsung has not made any official announcements regarding a timeline for the rollout of One UI 7, so we can only speculate at this point. However, it’s clear that the wait will be worthwhile given the significant enhancements One UI 7 offers compared to previous iterations. We just wish the process was quicker; Samsung was once renowned for swiftly delivering major Android updates across a wide range of devices in years past. Now, they’ve transitioned from being the best to one of the slowest, which is a disappointing change.
