Samsung Expands One UI 8 Rollout to Galaxy S24 Series and A56

Beta users are receiving the Android 16 build first in select regions, with carrier approvals pacing broader availability.

Overview

  • Samsung is now delivering the stable One UI 8 (Android 16) update to the Galaxy S24 series and the midrange Galaxy A56.
  • The Galaxy S25 lineup already received Android 16, and the latest Fold 7 and Flip 7 models come with One UI 8 preinstalled.
  • On Galaxy S24 devices the download is about 5.5 GB and includes the September security patch, with BYI5 builds reported across parts of Europe.
  • Rollout prioritizes beta-program participants and proceeds in regional waves with possible carrier delays, and users can check manually via Settings > Software update.
  • The A56 update lacks some Galaxy AI features found on flagships, and Samsung’s roadmap lists many more S-, Z-, A-, F/M- and XCover models set for updates in 2025.
