Samsung began rolling out the Galaxy S23 One UI 8 Beta update yesterday, which has now expanded to the UK, though availability remains limited to select regions. With its broader release, the full changelog is now available. However, a key AI feature appears to be missing, though it’s likely to arrive in a future update.
Now Brief is a feature that first appeared on the Galaxy S25 series. Galaxy S24 users received it with the first One UI 8 Beta build, while S23 series users who sideloaded the build had it working on their phone. Unfortunately, it is missing for those who installed via OTA, which is surprising, but it might be a bug.

Samsung has released the Much-anticipated upgrade in the UK. Only select users are getting the Android 16-based One UI 8 Beta update. It comes with a firmware version S918BXXU8ZYHB and weighs 3.1GB.

While we do not know when the stable build will start rolling out, you can join the beta program. Samsung will send you the OTA after a successful registration so you can participate in the beta preview. However, you will experience some glitches and overheating. Additionally, installing the build might result in an error; hence, ensure you back up your important files.
