S25 has stable one UI 7 since January and now we have to wait more weeks to get it on last year's flagship? Samsung is the only major android flagship from last year still running android 14 pretty pathetic. Won't be buying Samsung again. Not to mention they basically lead us on leaving us entirely in the dark until the very last minute just to release another beta. Samsung is worse than apple.

So Apple, basically.
Galaxy AI was released in January with the S24 series, but didnt arrive on the S23 until March. I would anticipate a similar timeline here.

It's not just about the newer Galaxy AI features. One UI 7 also includes the latest Android 15, which was released on October 15, 2024. Android 16 is scheduled for launch in the second quarter of 2025, yet we still don't have Android 15. While many of the key features of the latest Android version are available on Samsung phones, the development team’s performance has been disappointing this time.

What really amazes me is how many people are getting upset over a perceived delay in a cell phones operating system update.

You can be upset over something.

Marginal update with the new chip that every other Android manufacturer will have.
Downgrade of the sPen, completely unnecessary.
Software development and deployment do cost money but nothing really ground breaking.
Add to all if this, the marketing tactic of holding out on the previous year flagship models and delaying the release of features and updates, is just deplorable.
So, if you got the 25U, enjoy your phone.
If you are keeping your 24U, enjoy your phone.
Message to Samsung, you won't always be the only game in town. One Plus is on the rise. Maybe Google. Others too, if folks are willing to import.
So, don't rest on your laurels.
You are not Apple. Android users have choices.
Stop playing games.

Hello,
Thank you all for your valuable feedback.
We understand your frustration, and we appreciate you sharing your concerns. The goal of the One UI Beta Program is to ensure that the final release is as stable and optimized as possible, which sometimes requires additional testing phases. While the S25 series launched with a stable One UI 7, software development timelines for existing devices can differ due to optimizations needed for various hardware configurations.
We recognize that waiting for the stable update can be frustrating, but Samsung prioritizes delivering the best possible user experience. The additional beta phase helps fine-tune performance, address reported issues, and ensure a smoother rollout for all users.
We truly appreciate your patience and participation in the Beta Program. Official updates will always be communicated through the Samsung Members app, so please stay tuned for further announcements. If you have any specific feedback or concerns regarding the beta experience, feel free to share—we value your input in shaping the final release.
Best regards,
One UI Beta Team
