It has a download size of over 900MB. You can only install this update if you live in the four countries mentioned above and have already enrolled your device into the One UI 8.5 Beta Program.

It brings four new Galaxy AI features:

Call Screening: The phone takes calls on your behalf usign an AI system. It asks the caller their name and the purpose for the call. It also saves the transcription of the call.

Creative Studio: Offers Generative AI-powered image editing features. You can draw and even describe edits through text prompts. It also offers sticker generation.

It also solves the proximity sensor bug during calls. 4K HDR videos recorded on the Galaxy S25 series using certain third-party apps introduced green lines, and that bug has been solved as well. Bluetooth crashes and multitouch issues have also been fixed.
