Samsung Rolls Out One UI 8 Update for Galaxy S25 Series and More

Samsung has started the rollout of its latest update, One UI 8, based on Android 16, for the Galaxy S25 series. The update comes with a download size of 3.8GB and includes the September 1, 2025, Android security patch for the Galaxy S25 devices.

The update offers several new features and improvements. One of the most notable additions is automatic call captioning, designed to enhance accessibility. This feature aims to help users better understand calls, especially in noisy environments or when the speaker's voice is hard to hear.

Another new functionality included in the update is Now Brief, which provides contextual updates in a snapshot. This feature is expected to streamline the user experience by offering quick and relevant information at a glance.

The rollout initially began in South Korea and will gradually expand to other markets including the US, UK, India, and more. Users will receive an automatic notification once the update is made available on their device. However, Samsung has not yet revealed the complete list of devices that will get the One UI 8 update this month.

In addition to the Galaxy S25 series, Samsung is rolling out the stable One UI 8 update this month to the Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy S22 series, Galaxy Z Fold6, Galaxy Z Flip6, and other selected devices including tablets like the Galaxy Tab S10 and S9 series, as well as various Galaxy A series models such as A73 5G, A56 5G, A54 5G, A53 5G, among others.

Samsung has also confirmed that One UI 8 Watch will expand beyond the Galaxy Watch 8 series later this year. More S-series and A-series devices are expected to receive the stable rollout of One UI 8 soon, but a specific timeline for the expansion of One UI 8 Watch is still awaited.

Users can manually check for the update by going to Settings > Software update > Download and install. It's always a good idea to ensure your device is fully charged and connected to a stable Wi-Fi network before initiating the update process.
