Overview

  • Stable One UI 8 is now live for the Galaxy S23 lineup (including S23 FE), Z Fold 5, Z Flip 5, Tab S10+ and Ultra, and mid-range A36, A35, and A55, with releases starting in South Korea.
  • Several deployments arrived earlier than Samsung’s published timelines, with broader regional waves set to follow over the coming days and weeks.
  • Samsung temporarily pulled the One UI 8 build for the limited-release Galaxy Z Fold SE after reports of a touch input bug, with distribution to that device paused while a fix is prepared.
  • Reported builds include S91xNKSU6EYI7 for Galaxy S23, F946NKSU5FYI8 for Z Fold 5/Flip 5, X820OXM4CVI5 for Tab S10+, A366BXXU4BYI7 for A36, and A556SKSU6CYI6 for A55, with smaller downloads for beta users and multi‑gigabyte packages for others.
  • The update, based on Android 16, adds an overhauled DeX using Desktop Mode, a hardened Secure Folder, a redesigned Samsung Internet, revamped Quick Share, and enhancements across camera controls, Modes and Routines, and core apps.
