After a long delay, Samsung is finally closing in on its One UI 7.0 beta release. While it hasn’t officially announced anything, recent developments suggest the Android 15 update for Galaxy devices is quite close. However, like in the past, the company isn’t expected to roll out the beta program globally. It should be only available in select countries across Asia, Europe, and North America.
Samsung may release One UI 7.0 beta in these countries
The One UI 7.0 beta program should be available in the following seven countries: China, Germany, India, Poland, South Korea, the UK, and the US. Samsung has historically run beta testing of its major updates in these markets and it should be no different this year. If you reside in any of these countries and use a supported Galaxy phone, you can join the beta program.
Users in the rest of the world must wait for the stable release to experience the latest software. Samsung has already confirmed that the stable One UI 7.0 update will arrive after the Galaxy S25 launch, which may happen on January 22, 2025.
For users in supported regions, the One UI 7.0 beta should first launch for the Galaxy S24 series. Typically, Samsung expands the program to other flagship and mid-range Galaxy devices later, so expect more to join the party later. The process to register for the beta update will be the same across all supported Galaxy devices. You can enroll through the Samsung Members app.
If you meet the requirements, you should see a banner for One UI 7.0 beta on the app’s homepage — you can download that app from the Galaxy Store. Click on the banner and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the registration. You might need to sign in with your Samsung account. Once completed, the beta update should roll out to your device within a couple of hours.
It arrives as a regular software update. You should receive a notification to install it. If you don’t, you can manually check for the update by navigating to Settings > Software update > Download and install. Note that beta software may be buggy and unstable. If you plan to install One UI 7.0 on your daily driver, we advise you to wait for feedback from others before proceeding.
