Samsung’s One UI 7 update has become a hot topic of controversy. To be fair, it’s been stirring debate since the very first beta, which was delayed for quite a while. Still, when Samsung announced it would begin rolling out the Android 15-based update on April 7, it gave fans a glimmer of hope and renewed confidence. However, Samsung once again pulled the One UI 7 update from its servers, and now the company is explaining why.
Here’s why Samsung pulled the plug on the One UI 7 rollout
Since then, Samsung has finally addressed the delay surrounding the One UI 7 update. In a statement shared with Android Authority, a spokesperson said, “The One UI 7 rollout schedule is being updated to ensure the best possible experience. The new timing and availability will be shared shortly.” The statement, however, is vague and generic, offering little reassurance to users who have been eagerly waiting.
Speculation around the halted rollout suggests it could be due to software bug(s) or potential issues with the Exynos 2400 units, though neither has been confirmed or denied. What we do know is that the delay has gone on for far too long, and for countless users eagerly awaiting the update, it should have already arrived.
Meanwhile, there have been reports that the One UI 7 rollout may begin in May in Colombia and Mexico. That gives us a clearer picture of when we might expect a wider global release.
Somewhat ironically, Samsung appears to be making progress with One UI 8. A build of the next version was spotted yesterday. We got a look at it today, and there aren’t many changes so far, at the moment. Still, it’s hard to believe that One UI 7 hasn’t even reached all eligible devices. And yet Samsung might launch the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 preloaded with One UI 8 instead.
We’re keeping a close eye on any updates on One UI 7 release schedule and will report updates. Stay tuned.
