Many Samsung phone users are eagerly awaiting the update to One UI 7 , which brings many improvements and new features. However, not everyone will get it, and the rollout hasn’t exactly been smooth so far.
While the update initially debuted with the Galaxy S25 series , One UI 7 will be available on older devices…eventually. Here’s the latest on when your phone or tablet might get the update, plus if it’s even compatible.
When will my Samsung Galaxy phone get One UI 7?
One UI 7 was introduced on 22 January 2025 , and at the time, it was available only for the Galaxy S25 series. Samsung has since released three beta versions of the system for the Galaxy S24 series , Z Fold 6 , Z Flip 6 , Galaxy S23 series , Tab S10 series , and A55 .
The official rollout began on 7 April, though it was promptly halted on 14 April. While not officially confirmed, reliable leaker Ice Universe posted on X that a “serious bug” was found in the Korean version, which resulted in its suspension “in all other countries”.
In a statement to Android Authority , the company simply said that the “One UI 7 rollout schedule is being updated to ensure the best possible experience”. Just a day later, Samsung confirmed that the update had been “temporarily suspended” but that it “will resume updates soon”.

Prior to the delay, Tarun Vats , a specialist in Android and Samsung, said we can expect the following devices to be updated in April, May and June, respectively.
April: Z Fold5, Z Flip5, Tab S10+/Ultra, S23 series, S24 FE.
May: Z Fold4/Flip4/3, S23 FE, A34, A35, S22/S21 series, Tab S9/S8 series, A16, Quantum4.
June: Tab S9 FE, A53, A33, A25, A24, A15, Quantum3, Jump2/3, Buddy3, Tab A9/A9+, Tab Active4/5, Wide7
While the Galaxy S21 series and S22 series , as well as the Galaxy Z Fold 4 , Flip 4 , Fold 3 and Flip 3 , are eligible for One UI 7, they may experience a slight delay in receiving the update compared to newer models.
Samsung’s mid-range devices and some budget-friendly phones may also start receiving the update at a later date. As usual, Samsung prioritises its flagship lineups before extending the update to other models.
Which Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets will get One UI 7?
Generally, any Galaxy phone or tablet that launched with Android 13 is expected to receive Android 15 (One UI 7), as Samsung guarantees at least two major OS upgrades for almost all of its Android devices.
Additionally, flagship and mid-range models that qualify for four years of OS updates will also be included in the One UI 7 rollout. Since all devices under Samsung’s four-year update policy were released with Android 11 or later, they are eligible for Android 15.
Naturally, all Samsung Galaxy phones and tablets launching in 2025 will ship with One UI 7, including the upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge , and already launched A26 , A36 and A56 .
