Samsung is moving forward with the development of One UI 8, its next big software update. After starting early tests for the Galaxy A55 and Galaxy S24 FE, the company is now testing One UI 8 for two of its popular foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold4 and Galaxy Z Flip4.

Samsung is testing One UI 8 on more smartphones

New information shows that Samsung has begun internal testing of One UI 8 for the Galaxy Z Fold4 and Flip4. The test software was spotted on the company’s servers. This means the company is working on bringing the latest version of its custom Android skin to these devices. However, don’t expect the update to be available anytime soon. This is just the early stage of development. It usually takes a few months of testing before Samsung rolls out the final version to users.

One UI 7 Is Already Available

This is just a reminder that the One UI 7 is already official and is currently available for the Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 in many countries. If the update is not available for your smartphone, you can look for it yourself. Just go to Settings > Software update on your phone and tap Download and install to see if it’s ready.

Samsung hasn’t officially stated when One UI 8 will be available for the foldable smartphones. As testing begins, we can expect it to launch before the year runs out, but it is likely that the software might get to the newer phones like the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Flip7 first before reaching other flagship devices.
