There's some good news for Galaxy M35 owners. Samsung has released the stable version of One UI 8.5 for the smartphone, offering it a new user interface that is more customisable and many new features.
One of the first countries where the brand is rolling out the update is India. It is 3,053.32MB in size and carries version M356BXXU8DZE3 (via Mohammed Khatri). We expect the company to finish offering it in all the regions globally within a month or so.
To know if Samsung has released the update in your country, as well as to get it, go to Settings > Software update > Download and install.
While looks are subjective, the general consensus is that One UI 8.5 looks cleaner and more modern. One of the most prominent design changes it offers includes a floating bar at the bottom of first-party apps, as well as a more customisable Quick Settings panel.
As for the new features, there are plenty. One of the most useful ones you will find is the support for Apple AirDrop, making it more easier than ever for you to exchange files with iPhones, iPads, and Macs wirelessly. On a related note, Samsung has debuted One UI 9.0 as well.
I’m a computer science engineer living in Hyderabad, India, who has a keen interest in automobiles and consumer electronics. My journalism career kicked off in 2017 with MySmartPrice where I wrote news, features, buying guides, and explanatory articles about technology among other things, and reviewed many products, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, PC components, smartwatches, audio devices, wearables, and smart home products. Since then, I have worked for 91Mobiles, Apple, and Onsitego, before finally landing on SamMobile.
