Samsung is moving closer to the stable release of its Android 16-based One UI 8 update, expected to go live this month. The Galaxy S25 series is likely to receive it first, followed by the Galaxy S24 lineup. With the Galaxy S23 One UI 8 Beta 2 build now rolling out, owners shouldn’t have to wait much longer for the stable upgrade once it begins.
The Beta 2 update is currently live in South Korea and India, with rollout to more regions expected shortly. Users are encouraged to install it as it delivers key bug fixes and performance improvements.

The new build carries firmware version S91xNKSU6ZYI5 and weighs 507.13MB. It includes the September 2025 security patch, resolves the Galaxy Watch 7 clock weather sync issue, and addresses two additional bugs.
Complete changelog
