The Galaxy S24 owners are still waiting for a stable One UI 7 update despite getting access to the One UI 7 beta program in early December 2024. The beta program typically doesn’t last that long, but that’s been the case with the Galaxy S24. Either previous betas have had too many bugs, or Samsung may have stretched it intentionally for whatever reason.
Samsung has now released another One UI 7.0 beta update for the Galaxy S24, S24+, and S24 Ultra. This is the fifth and could be the final One UI 7.0 beta for the S24 series. The phones are set to receive the stable build next month. So, if this is the final beta, the stable update might be released in early April rather than a few weeks later.
