It seems like new bits of information about the upcoming One UI 7.0 update leak every day. First, we started the week with news about the Internet and Clock apps for One UI 7.0 leaking online. Then, we got some disappointing news about One UI 7.0 beta testing not starting today. And now, a few new screenshots have leaked to make our wait more bearable.

What you see in the image gallery below (via @chunvn8888) are two screenshots of the alleged One UI 7.0 update. They reveal a few exciting UI changes, but the main takeaway is a new battery charging status pop-up. Instead of plain text, this element looks like a widget. It is much more pleasing to the eye and should be easier to read.

We also see a new charging bar between two redesigned Phone and Camera lock screen icons. And last but not least, the screenshots offer a preview of the new pill-shaped battery indicator in the upper-right corner on the status bar.

What these screenshots can't show is Samsung's allegedly new One UI 7.0 animations. We'll probably have to wait for the beta program to go live before we can take a look at those fabled animation changes.

We like what we've seen so far. One UI 7.0 appears to be an ambitious update that aims to change many things about Samsung's proprietary Android skin. It might be a huge step toward modernizing One UI, and we can't wait to get our hands on it.

We're also looking forward to seeing if and what new Galaxy AI features and upgrades Samsung may have prepared for this upcoming Android 15-based release.
