    Update: Samsung Members' community manager has mentioned to TizenHelp that Samsung hasn't opened the One UI 4.0 Beta Program to the Galaxy S20 in the US. However, some Galaxy S20 owners users claim that they were able to see the One UI 4.0 Beta Program banner in the Samsung Members app and were able to enroll in the program. It is also possible that Samsung accidentally opened registrations for some time before pulling it.

    Have you been able to enroll your Galaxy S20 in the One UI 4.0 Beta program? Let us know in the comments section.

    Original story follows…

    It was revealed yesterday that Samsung will soon open the One UI 4.0 beta program for the Galaxy S20 series. Today, the South Korean firm has announced that interested Galaxy S20 owners in the US can start beta-testing the Android 12-based One UI 4.0 update.

    Right now, the One UI 4.0 beta program is only open for unlocked variants of the Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, and the Galaxy S20 Ultra in the US. Hopefully, the beta program will soon be expanded to the carrier-locked variants of these high-end smartphones. If you want to install this update on your Galaxy S20 series smartphone, you'll have to install the Samsung Members app, log in using your Samsung account, and then click on the One UI Beta Programme banner on the app's home page.

    Android 12-based One UI 4.0 update brings a revamped UI design, complete with Google's Material You-inspired color themes. The new software also brings more widgets with a newer design, an updated widget picker menu, updated stock apps, improved Samsung Internet and Samsung Keyboard apps, and better privacy and security.

    It is possible that Samsung will soon release the One UI 4.0 beta update for the Galaxy S20 series in other markets, including China, Germany, India, South Korea, and the UK.
