At the time of writing, it's not known if the update is out for the Edge model as well or just the original three models. It may take a few extra days for the Galaxy S25 Edge to join the One UI 8 party, but it should be running the new software before the end of the month.

The rollout of the update has started in South Korea, and it comes with the firmware version S93xNKSU5BYI3 (555.45MB download for the Galaxy S25 Ultra). The update is currently available only for those who participated in the One UI 8 Beta Program, but it could be released to devices running One UI 7 later today.
