Samsung could soon take the wraps off its long-awaited One UI 7 update, which is based on Android 15 and all the goodies that OS version brings to the table.

According to Sammobile, the Korean tech giant has started internally testing a beta version of One UI 7. Citing new firmware updates published online, the site noted that Samsung is testing a Galaxy S24 Ultra internally with the firmware version S928BXXU2BXE2, which is believed to be One UI 7. 

It could be possible that this is a smaller update to One UI 6. However, it's worth noting that whenever Samsung uses the letter B for the fourth-to-last character in firmware names, it suggests a major update.

Rumors have been swirling about Samsung's One UI 7 plans for months. Most recently, a report suggested that Samsung would launch a vertical app drawer in One UI 7, making it easier for users to find apps. The update is also expected to offer more powerful AI features, improved privacy controls, and better performance for foldables.

For its part, Samsung has been largely tight-lipped about its One UI 7 plans and has instead left all the interest around it to the rumormongers. Considering Samsung has been testing Android 15 for months and is now making it clear that it's testing a new version of One UI internally, it may not be long before the company shares some insights into what it has planned.
