Google has as soon as once more confirmed that it plans to launch Android 16 in June, many months forward of the standard schedule. So, with that in thoughts, you might be questioning when Samsung will begin rolling out its personal One UI 8 based mostly on Android 16.
The reply comes straight from Samsung VP and Head of Smartphone Planning, Minseok Kang, within the video beneath (at across the 2:30 mark).
Spoiler alert: it is taking place “this summer time”. Now, that may imply something from June to September-ish, but it surely’s good to see Samsung committing to a timeline, obscure as it could be for the time being.
Since One UI 8 comes with a lot much less of a revamp than One UI 7, we’re hoping that Samsung’s promise will probably be saved and eligible gadgets will all be up to date this summer time, and the One UI 7 launch debacle will not be repeated. In fact, solely time will inform, however no less than we now have an concept of what to anticipate.
Earlier than the final launch, there would be the beta – and the primary One UI 8 beta has just lately been rumored to arrive later this month.
