Although the new Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 run One UI 5.1.1 out of the box, Samsung is also testing the firmware for older devices through a beta program. The company will bring One UI 5.1.1 to the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Tab S8 series, at the very least, and today, the company rolled out the third beta build for testers in Korea.

The third One UI 5.1.1 beta update for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 can be identified by a new firmware version that ends in the letters ZWGB, whereas the third beta for the Galaxy Tab S8 series ends with firmware version ZWGA.

Everything new with One UI 5.1.1 beta 3

Samsung's beta operation manager revealed the changes introduced by One UI 5.1.1 beta 3 through the official community forums. The changelogs mention the following improvements and fixes.

One UI 5.1.1 beta 3 for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 improves an ultra-wide distortion issue, fixes camera blacking out and a loading delay for the Camera Controller app, improves an issue concerning memory leak, and fixes a bug concerning the Clash Royale mobile game. The changelog also mentions “many other improvements.”

The One UI 5.1.1 beta 3 changelog for the Galaxy Tab S8 series is shorter and mentions improvements to the camera and other areas. The company also addressed an error concerning home screen wallpapers.

Whether the beta 3 update is good enough to bring One UI 5.1.1 close to a public release for the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Tab S8 series remains to be determined.

Samsung is also working on opening up the One UI 6.0 beta program, which could happen at any moment now. The One UI 5.1.1 update should reach the public before the One UI 6.0 beta concludes.
