TL;DR
- Samsung is expected to initiate One UI 8.5 beta next month.
- The Galaxy S25 series could be among the earliest devices to be eligible for the beta.
- The final update may arrive alongside the Galaxy S26 early next year.
After a laggard rollout of One UI 7 earlier in the year, Samsung turned the narrative in its favor with the speedy release of its One UI 8 interface. But even with One UI 8 in its initial phases, Samsung is gearing up to dish out another major update with a horde of visual and operational changes.
Samsung’s One UI 8.5 is expected to arrive early next year, in line with the company’s usual launch cycle for the new Galaxy S series. However, the beta will kick off much sooner, and SamMobile indicates it could be as soon as next month.
