Samsung One UI 6.0 Early Access Beta: These Galaxy devices can get it first
As this modification is a part of Android 14, it will make its way to Samsung’s One UI 6 as well because the next-gen UI will be based on Android 14.

Samsung has introduced Android 14-based One UI 6.1 update on the Galaxy S24 series which brings the Galaxy AI novelty, and then delivers it to 2023 high-end devices. Now the brand is all set to expand the range of updates by delivering it to more devices including Galaxy S22 series, fourth generation foldable, and Galaxy Tab S8 series.
Samsung has rolled out the One UI 6.1 update yet for nine Galaxy devices, now the reports are unveiling that the giant is all set to release this update on May 3rd in Canada for the list of Galaxy devices mentioned below –
- Galaxy S22
- Galaxy S22+
- Galaxy S22 Ultra
- Galaxy Z Fold 4
- Galaxy Z Flip 4
This is being speculated by a Canadian network carrier, Fido, which is stating that the latest update is scheduled to be available for these devices on 3rd May in Canada. This update will bring the April 2024 security patch plus it is also expected to introduce the One UI 6.1 features.
Unfortunately, it should be noted that the Fido database does not provide further details and, therefore, at the moment there are no guarantees that the update to which the operator refers is own One UI 6.1, as it can also be an update with monthly security patches.
However, the Korean giant has not officially confirmed the exact date for the Android 14-based One UI 6.1 release yet for these devices, but has already announced that soon it will happen in early May. Transparently, this update is much anticipated, since it will offer multiple generative AI features to these devices; for instance Circle to Search, Chat Assist, Interpreter, Live Translate, Note Assist, Transcript Assist, Browsing Assist, Browsing Assist, Generative Edit, and many more, and all of these are expected to arrive on Galaxy S22 series and rest of the devices mentioned above.
Noticeably, one Galaxy AI feature named Instant Slow-Mo is not arriving with this update for these devices, since this feature requires a powerful GPU and NPU, so bringing this feature to each Galaxy device is not possible.
Samsung Galaxy users have recently received a featureful update in the form of One UI 6.1. With this update, users have received several new functions that provide convenience for them while using different functionality. However, with the latest features, it has also unintentionally brought some issues for the users.
According to the information, there is an issue encountered in the Quick panel that is stopping users from taking details of the notification. When they tap the notification on the Quick panel, it doesn’t react and keeps reopening the Quick panel.
However, a community moderator has apologized for the inconvenience due to the issue and officially confirmed that the company will deliver a dedicated update that will fix the Quick Panel issue. Although he hasn’t shared the exact date for the update’s availability, it is expected to be available soon with the next security patch update.
Whenever the update is available for the Galaxy devices, we will immediately provide information about it. In the meantime, you can also frequently check the update manually by going to the system settings.
If you own any of the flagship devices, such as the Galaxy Z Flip 5, Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Tab S9 series, Galaxy S23 FE, and Galaxy S23, and have not updated your device to the latest version, it is recommended that you update your device to the latest version without worrying about some minor issues like this.
