Samsung has officially started rolling out One UI 7 (Android 15)

Samsung has officially kicked off the One UI 7 rollout, based on Android 15, starting April 7. Staying true to its roadmap, the update has begun reaching select Galaxy devices, but its availability is still limited to specific countries. Here’s a complete breakdown of where the update is going live first, when others can expect it, and what devices are included in this phased launch.

Early Access Countries for One UI 7 Beta

As seen in previous years, Samsung is sticking with a phased approach for the One UI 7 beta rollout. Initially, the beta version was released in three key markets:

• Germany

• South Korea

• United States

These regions often lead the charge due to their large base of tech-enthusiasts and well-established infrastructure for testing new software.

Shortly after, the beta program was expected to expand to more countries such as:

• United Kingdom

• India

• Poland

• China

These countries have a history of participating in Samsung’s early beta testing programs, and they’re typically prioritized due to high demand and strong market presence.

On April 7, Samsung began officially rolling out the stable version of One UI 7 to the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip 6, and Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition. However, despite this global start date, only users in South Korea received the update on day one.
