- Samsung is reportedly already working on One UI 8.5.
- The version number suggests it could potentially be the true follow-up to One UI 7.
- The software could debut alongside the Galaxy S26 series.
Samsung has reportedly started developing One UI 8.5, even though One UI 8 hasn’t been officially announced, and many of us around the world are still waiting for the One UI 7 update. This unexpected leap in versioning suggests Samsung could be preparing a more significant software refresh later in the Android 16 cycle.
