Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra running on One UI 9.0 (Android 17)
Samsung unveiled its latest custom Android interface, One UI 9.0, by releasing the stable version for the Galaxy S26 lineup. So far, the brand has rolled out eight beta versions of the new software, with the latest one arriving earlier today.
The company was expected to release the stable version of One UI 9.0 for the Galaxy S26 series soon after launching its latest foldable phones. However, the tech giant had remained tight-lipped about the rollout. That's changing today.
Samsung, on its Community forum, announced that it will release the stable version of One UI 9.0 for the Galaxy S26 series “soon.” While the company hasn’t revealed an exact release date for the new firmware, it typically makes such announcements when a stable rollout is only a few days away.
Based on Android 17, One UI 9.0 brings a plethora of changes, including more UI customization options and new features designed to enhance convenience and productivity. We’ve also made a video highlighting the biggest upgrades in the new software, which you can watch below.
