South Korean tech giant Samsung has begun testing its next major software update, One UI 8, for the Galaxy S24 FE. This update brings improvements and a better user experience. While the update isn’t available to the public yet, there are indications that its development is in advanced stages.

Testing Begins Behind the Scenes

Samsung is working on One UI 8 for the Galaxy S24 FE using a test firmware version: S721BXXU6CYG1/S721BOXM6CYG1/S721BXXU6CYG1. This version is currently only being used internally. That means regular users can’t download or try it yet.

This is not surprising. Earlier this year, Samsung released One UI 7 for the Galaxy S24 FE without going through a public beta test. It’s possible Samsung will follow the same path with One UI 8, skipping the beta stage and going straight to the final version.

What to Expect With the Update

The One UI 8 is based on Android 16. Thus, it will likely come with more advanced features. It should also include a variety of lock screen and customization options to choose from. It isn’t official yet what Samsung has in store for this software update in terms of the new features it will come with.

Release Timeline Looks Promising

The Galaxy S24 FE runs on version One UI 7, which was released in April 2025. If Samsung follows this time frame, One UI 8 could arrive before the end of the year. Since the company is already testing the software, a release in late 2025 is very likely.

Even if Samsung doesn’t open a public beta for the Galaxy S24 FE, it doesn’t mean the final version will be delayed. The company tests updates privately on certain phones to catch bugs and fine-tune performance before releasing them to its users.

Final Thoughts

If you own the Galaxy S24 FE, you might not have to wait too long for the One UI 8 update. Understand that the software is still undergoing a series of tests, and Samsung is making steady progress. Be on the lookout for the official announcements as it gets closer.
