A One UI 7 showcase has shown up on a Samsung siteWe’re getting revamped icons and notificationsSome of the One UI 7 apps are now available online
One UI 7, Samsung’s take on Android 15, is scheduled to launch in full with the Samsung Galaxy S25 phones sometime in January – but we’re getting a good look at the software, and some unauthorized app download availability, ahead of time.
As per tipster @chunvn8888, the official Samsung Spain website has apparently gone early with details of One UI 7. There’s now a full showcase of the upcoming software online, highlighting key features and screen designs.
Some of the changes have been leaked already. We’ve got refreshed, modernized app icons, a revamped notification center that is more clearly separated from Quick Settings, and live updates on the lock screen (a little like the iPhone’s Dynamic Island).
The Samsung Spain website (via Google Translate) describes One UI 7 as offering a “more sophisticated and intuitive” experience, which will “revolutionize the way you communicate and unleash your creativity to do it all”.
More AI – new apps

There are of course updates to Galaxy AI coming with Samsung One UI 7. The Sketch to Image feature, which turns your scribblings into proper works of art with the help of AI, is getting more output options (including 3D cartoon and watercolor).
It also looks like we’re going to get a new Portrait Studio feature, which again leverages AI, this time to turn your portraits into more artistic creations – you can choose from themes like comic, 3D cartoon, and sketch for the finished result.
In a separate leak, as reported by Neowin, some of the One UI 7 apps have already been found online and made available by tipster @GerwinvGiessen. It looks as though the Calendar, the Reminder, and the Voice Recorder apps are the ones available right now.
Expect these early versions of the apps to be buggy, and you install them at your own risk – but they do give us another early look at the 2025 update. The rumor is that a public beta could be launching any day now.
