Samsung’s One UI 7 has arrived here with Android 15. And if you look at it, many people had some problems and issues. And if you look at it, this is the first time from Samsung that Samsung has delayed a lot in One UI 7.
Reasons for Delay and Samsung’s Update Strategy
Well, let me tell you one thing, what used to be a good thing with Samsung? That Samsung’s phone used to get updates for a long time, updates used to come early. Even I have seen some cases where before Google Pixel, Samsung used to give an update of its One UI. And not like this, many old phones.
But what happened with One UI 7 that Samsung has already delayed this update a lot. And still, it has started to reach many phones well. But with this, the majority of phones have not reached yet. And many phones will come in the coming time. And the interesting thing comes when Samsung is going to bring the beta of One UI 8. So what happened with One UI 7 that the beta of One UI 8 is coming, but One UI 7 did not reach here.
Design and User Interface Changes in One UI 7
First of all, let’s talk about its design and look and feel, which Samsung has changed very quickly. Look, I will tell you one thing. What does Samsung do? After a while, it brings major changes in its One UI. In which it visually overhauls, that is, it visually revamps its entire design.
In which One UI 7 has been redesigned, split setting has been included here. Samsung has taken a sleek, modern, aesthetic design from it. The notification panel has been redesigned, the icon has been redesigned, the layout of the camera app has been redesigned. Even Samsung has brought the Now Bar on the lock screen this time. In which they can run the music player. With this, they can run the timer, voice recording. And here it is seen that Samsung has integrated many things.
With this, the overall meaning of saying is that here Samsung has tried to give it a look and feel like iOS to a large extent. The work done in One UI 7 is that of performance boost.
Performance Enhancements and AI Features
They have optimized with Android 15 and One UI 7, improved the battery life, improved the system performance. And made it overall responsive. And the biggest feature that has been introduced here is the AI feature. That is, integrating Galaxy AI and bringing Gemini Live to the premium phones.
Even in Galaxy AI, you get to see features like Enhanced Live Translation, Interpreter, and Note Assist. In other words, people liked these things a lot in Samsung phones.
Recommendations for Samsung’s Update Strategy
And how can Samsung solve this problem in the coming time? First of all, Samsung should make Android a little streamlined. And the way Samsung is trying to take it to iOS in Android. It is better to try to make it a little stock Android-ish. Like it comes in Google Pixel. Or the Material 3 Express is also coming. Due to which they don’t have to make much changes under the hood. And after that, roll out this update here.
However, an interesting thing is that Samsung designs its own animations. But it can do it better. With this, the next thing Samsung can do is that it promises long software support updates in its phones. But the number of phones it was launching can be reduced a little here. Due to which the update situation can be improved quite well here.
With this, the thing is that long software support is being promised here. But all the features are in all phones in a good way. And the hardware of the mobile phone will be capable for a long time.
Overall User Experience with One UI 7
Although, talking overall, I used One UI 7. I found it interesting. Galaxy AI was very interesting. And the user interface, notification setting, quick panels, etc. were good. Although, some people have the habit of the old One UI. It will be a little difficult here. Because the way it used to work before, it made some minor changes in it. So some people like something, some people don’t. I know the rest. Many of you must have already used One UI.
