Samsung One UI 6.0 Emoji Changelog: What’s New and Different
Samsung has recently rolled out the latest skin upgrade for Galaxy devices in the form of One UI 6, which comes with a plethora of new changes for the Galaxy devices. There are several interesting additions that come with the update, like the Quick Panel, which is changed with revamped graphics, and it is not limited to there but also comes with a fresh design of existing emojis and some new additions.
The latest update for Galaxy devices is a new visual style for the vast majority of Samsung’s emoji designs and also brings support for Unicode’s new 2023 emoji recommendations.
It is worth noticing that this is not the first time that Samsung is bringing new changes for the emojis, but it has already made several changes in the earlier updates. If we talk about major changes, the company previously introduced a heavy package back in 2018 with the Samsung Experience 9.0, which has a total of 2500 emojis. At that time, the company introduced the emoji with a faded color art style, but with the new update, the company has tried to give a 3D look to the emojis, which are looking great.
In detail, when you install the One UI 6 update on your Samsung device, it will give you some fresh changes in the number of emojis related to different categories, including smiley, food, and animals. Apart from these, the update also brings several redesigned emojis, like faces, gestures, symbol emojis, and many more. In total, there are 2500 emoji that have been redesigned.
From Unicode Emoji 15.1, there will be 118 emojis changed with One UI 6. More specifically, six brand new emojis will be available, including four new non-gender non-selecting family emojis with silhouette-based design. Along with this, there are 108 new direction-selecting versions of the six people emojis.
As the new changes will be available for the devices that will grab the One UI 6 update, if you are using a device that is running on a beta program, then it is possible that you will get two emojis described as single emoji designs. For example, the phoenix will appear as a bird and fire emojis side by side, while the lime will be shown as a green square placed after the lemon emoji.

Samsung has introduced the One UI 6.1 update with the Galaxy S24 devices. With this update, the company has introduced several new Galaxy AI features, including Circle to search, transcript assist, chat assist, live call translation, and many more.
Later, the company expanded the One UI 6.1 to more Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy Z Fold 5, and Galaxy Z Flip 5, and moved forward. The company has already announced that it will provide the One UI 6.1 with Galaxy AI features for the 2022 flagship smartphones, and it has confirmed its intention to distribute more eligible devices. However, a question arises: will it provide Galaxy AI features to every One UI 6.1 eligible device or not? Let’s find out.
Samsung Galaxy AI features are available for Galaxy devices
Only the 2022 flagship devices will receive the Galaxy AI feature, as Samsung has already confirmed its provision for nearly all flagship devices. However, the latest developments have left some devices, such as the Galaxy S21 series, including the Fan Edition version, the Galaxy Z Fold 3, and the Galaxy Z Flip 3, without any AI features except Circle for search. Along with this, there are several non-flagship devices that are eligible to get the UI 6.1 update, but the company hasn’t confirmed the availability of the Galaxy AI feature for them.
The recent release of Galaxy A55, 5G, and Galaxy A35 devices also confirms the statement that they debuted in the market with the One UI 6.1 update, but they haven’t received any Galaxy AI features, which indicates that the company may not provide the Galaxy AI feature to non-flagship devices.
These Galaxy devices may get One UI 6.1 without any Galaxy AI features
We have compiled a list of devices expected to receive OneUI 6.1 updates without the AI feature, based on our speculations:

Will midrange Galaxy devices get Galaxy AI features in the next update?
In addition to its Galaxy flagship devices, Samsung is also prioritizing the development of advanced features for some midrange smartphones, including the Galaxy AI feature. However, due to hardware limitations, optimizing this feature may take some time, depending on the capabilities of the devices. Given the high-spec devices recently released, it’s possible that the company will introduce the Galaxy AI feature in the upcoming major updates.

The wait is over here! Samsung is rolling out the Android 14-based One UI 6.1 update to more high-end Galaxy smartphones and foldable phones.
Initially, the Korean giant introduced the One UI 6.1 on the Galaxy S24 series out of the box and later expanded it to a few flagship devices, including the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S23 FE, the fifth generation of the Galaxy foldable, and the Galaxy Tab S9 series. After that, the brand promised to provide an update soon for the 2022 flagship Galaxy devices.
The Android 14-based One UI 6.1 update is quite awaited since it brought a mesmerizing novelty called ‘Galaxy AI’, a power package of generative AI features, including chat assistants, generative wallpapers, note assistants, photo editing, live translation calls, and more.
Samsung debuted Galaxy AI features exclusive to the Galaxy S24, but then, as per the convenience and expectations of flagship device owners, the brand expanded the availability of generative AI features, except for a few features such as instant slow-mo. Since this requires a high-end processor, all the devices are not eligible to handle these features flawlessly.

Galaxy S series
