Samsung One UI 8 Beta 4 is now available, featuring smarter reminders, Quick Share upgrades, and sleek visuals for a seamless Galaxy experience.
Samsung has officially rolled out One UI 8 Beta 4, and it’s not just another incremental update—it’s a glimpse into the future of mobile intelligence. If you’ve been following the evolution of One UI, you’ll know that Samsung’s software journey has been all about refining the user experience. With Beta 4, they’re pushing the envelope even further.
What’s New in Beta 4?
This new beta, which utilizes Android 16, is now available on the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra in select regions, including South Korea, Germany, the UK, and the US. It’s full of improvements that are less tweak-like and more thoughtful updates:
Multimodal AI: Your phone is smarter now, be it viewing a video, scrolling through photos, or multitasking. It’s made to react normally to what you’re doing at the moment.
Now Bar & Now Brief: These two new capabilities provide proactive tips and personal insights, allowing you to stay in front of your day without so much as lifting a finger.

Improved UX for Foldables: The foldable series of Samsung receives exclusive treatment, with UI elements optimized for their respective form factors.
Quick Share Enhancements: File sharing is now quicker and more convenient, with a single tap from the Quick Settings panel.
Voice-Enabled Reminders: Got a trip to plan or errands to run? Just voice your reminders, and the app will sort your life.
Privacy with Power
Samsung isn’t merely showing off its AI muscle—it’s doing so in a responsible manner. Knox Vault keeps your sensitive information locked down, and users have the option of leaving AI processing on-device only. It’s a nice balance of personalization and privacy.
How to Become a Beta Member
If you’re itching to try it out, head to the Samsung Members app, tap the One UI 8 Beta banner, and enroll your device. Once registered, you’ll be able to download the update via Settings > Software Update.
Samsung One UI 8 Beta 4 is more than a software update—it’s Samsung doing what it’s always done: looking at you and your lifestyle and saying, “We get it, and we’re making tech that gets along with you.” If you’re a power user or simply someone who wishes their phone just clicked more, this beta is worth checking out.
