Galaxy S22 third One UI 6 beta delayed, but will fix many bugs

Samsung has delayed the third One UI 6 (Android 14) beta update for the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra. Samsung has been running the One UI 6 beta program for its devices for some time now, but its progress with individual devices has been pretty varied.

The beta program for the Galaxy S23 series is almost at an end. Samsung has released eight big beta updates for the S23, S23+, and S23 Ultra, in addition to a couple of hotfixes. Testing for the Galaxy S22 and other flagships like the Galaxy Z Fold 5, meanwhile, is still in a comparatively early stage.

For the Galaxy S22 lineup, Samsung has released two Android 14-based One UI 6 updates in a month or so. The second update was released around two weeks back, and Samsung has now revealed that the next beta update may not come out as quickly as Galaxy S22 users might have hoped.

Work on the third beta is running behind schedule, according to one of Samsung's community moderators. But the extra time has allowed the company to fix as many bugs as possible that were discovered in the second One UI 6 build, which will hopefully mean the next one will have fewer bugs.

As for the stable release of Android 14 and One UI 6 for the Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra, that's probably not going to arrive for at least another month. But Samsung has been known to surprise us before with quick work on major new OS updates, so fingers crossed.
