    Firmware

    Samsung has the Android 12-based One UI 4.0 beta program ongoing in a few countries since mid-September to let customers offer feedback before the public version rolls out later this year around the globe. Right now, the Galaxy S21 series is the only one for which the beta is available, but Samsung is expected to bring it to other devices in the near future.

    One UI 4.0 brings a ton of new features both big and small (mostly the latter, because hey, what more can you add to mobile software these days?), and if you're itching to test them out right now on your Galaxy S21, S21+ or S21 Ultra and are wondering exactly how you would go about doing so, we're here to help!

    You can check out the video below for a step-by-step guide on how you can enroll in the beta program. Of course, also make sure the beta program is accessible in your country using this handy list. As mentioned above, only the Galaxy S21 series phones have access to the beta right now, but the same steps will apply for any other Galaxy device that may get the beta going forward, so be sure to bookmark the video for later!
