One UI 6.0 brings completely redesigned emojis

After using the same emoji design for years, Samsung has finally refreshed the design of its emoji set with the One UI 6.0 update. The newer emojis look more pleasing compared to the older ones (which frankly looked childish). The company appears to have redesigned almost all emojis with the new software update. You can look at some of the new emojis in the screenshot below.

The newer emoji design has a slight three-dimensional look to it, similar to Microsoft's new 3D emojis that appear in some of its apps and services with Windows 11. We will try to post more screenshots of One UI 6.0 in upcoming articles. Until then, you can look at more emojis in the screenshots below.

Apart from a newly designed emoji set, Samsung has introduced a new font, changed the layout and design of the Quick Settings toggles area, improved the design of notifications, and improved almost all stock apps with new and improved features. You can read the complete One UI 6.0 changelog here.
