Samsung’s new One UI Beta rule could spread to more phones
Samsung is making some changes that might affect how people test new software on their devices. The company recently added a rule for its One UI Beta program, which lets users try early versions of its phone software. This rule stops beta users from switching back to the older, stable version of the software if they don’t like the new one. Right now, this restriction only applies to the Galaxy S25 series, but there’s talk it could roll out to other Samsung phones later.
The idea behind this is simple: Samsung wants testers to stick with the beta version and give feedback to improve it. By locking users in, the company hopes to get better reports about bugs or issues. However, this could annoy some fans who like switching between versions freely. For now, it’s just the Galaxy S25 affected, but if Samsung likes the results, more devices might follow.
On a brighter note, Samsung is also bringing something fun to the Galaxy S25. Users will soon be able to chat with an AI using pictures—not just words—for free! This feature lets you send an image to the AI and ask questions about it, like “What’s in this photo?” or “Can you explain this?” It’s a cool way to interact with your phone, and Samsung says it’ll be available without extra cost.
These updates show Samsung’s push to improve its software and add exciting tools for users. The beta rule might feel strict, but the free visual AI chat could win over Galaxy fans. Keep an eye out—more changes might be coming to your Samsung phone soon!
