Don’t expect wider Galaxy S22 One UI 6 update rollout this week

The Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra seem to be next in line for the official One UI 6 (Android 14) update, as Samsung released the stable version of One UI 6 for beta users in Europe a day ago. But the general rollout hasn't started yet, and it probably won't start until next week at the earliest.

Friday is almost over in some parts of the world, and Samsung doesn't initiate rollouts of major OS updates on weekends. And it seems Samsung is testing a newer build of the stable One UI 6 firmware for some markets, which suggests the build that was released for beta users in Europe may not be the one that's released for the masses as part of the general rollout.

Of course, we would love to be proven wrong, as unlikely as it is that Galaxy S22 owners will get the gift of the stable Android 14 and One UI 6 update this week. The latest One UI beta program has gone on a little longer than the previous (One UI 5) beta program for both current year Galaxy phones and those that launched a year ago, and Samsung fans are no doubt beginning to get a little impatient.
