One UI 7.0 Won’t Release Early, as One UI 6.1.1 Takes Priority

Samsung users are eagerly waiting for the powerful package of innovative features, notable customization changes, and upgrades within the title One UI 7.0. But the wait is dragging on since One UI 7 will not arrive too early, as the report says.
Samsung One UI 7 to Arrive Later Than Expected Due to One UI 6.1.1
Previously, by following the last One UI update’s schedule, it was reported that One UI 7.0 beta could arrive sometime in August, but that’s not the case anymore. Samsung, apart from One UI 7, is also setting up for One UI 6.1.1 to be introduced on the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 out of the box on July 10 at the Galaxy Unpacked event. This means that One UI 6.1.1 is first in line to be scheduled.
One UI 6.1.1 update will also bring a bunch of new AI functions, which suggests that it’s not a minor upgrade. Once this update arrives on the latest Galaxy foldable, the brand will deliver it to Galaxy S24 users in August. So by this prospect, the scheduling plan for the One UI 7 could seem to be delayed.
A well-reliable tipster on X also shared a post hinting that “One UI 7 will not arrive very early, because there are special circumstances this year.”
If the reports are to be believed, then One UI 7 will arrive just after the eligible devices get One UI 6.1.1, especially theGalaxy S24 series. This is because Samsung usually releases the latest major OS updates on the latest flagship device, which is the Galaxy S24 for now. Instead of clashing two major updates, it’s better for Samsung to release One UI 7 later. However, Samsung has yet to announce the official release date of One UI 7.
