One UI 7: A new interface for Android 15
After being announced at Samsung’s developer conference earlier this month, One UI 7Samsung’s interface for Android 15, is slow to arrive on existing Galaxy phones. The details of this long-awaited update are still unclear, but thanks to a major leak revealed by Android Headlines, we have an idea of what to expect.
Improvements and new features
The update of One UI 7 promises to be faster and smoother. The main icons we are used to, such as camera, calculator, phone and others, are expected to get a redesign with changed symbols. For example, the current camera icon, which features a cutout camera symbol on a red background, could be replaced with a more detailed camera symbol on a silver background. These changes should make app icons more distinct.
Additionally, the One UI 7 update is said to introduce smart notification management and an improved lock screen, making it easier to differentiate between incoming alerts.
Expected new features
Several new features are expected with One UI 7. Among them, we find the homework help tool « Circle to Search »already available on Pixel 9 phones, which should come to Galaxy devices. This feature helps solve math and physics problems by providing videos, related search results, and explanations.
Moreover, One UI 7 should introduce new parental control features, allowing for example to block certain sites and applications. New AI-based features are also expected, such as adding live effects to images or the ability to turn an image into a 3D comic or cartoon.
When to expect One UI 7?
The One UI 7 release date remains uncertain. Samsung has confirmed that the interface will arrive with the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25 Ultra, expected in January. A developer beta is expected to be available in December. More information is expected to be revealed by December or early next year.
