No, there is no typo in the title – we mean Samsung has started a UI test. 8 Android based 16And yes, this is incredibly irony, as an update of a UI 7 based on Android 15 is still not out, even with several months of testing. He will finally start rolling next month, and then the waiting game will begin very soon after that, as Google aims to release Android 16 in June.

We are naturally hoping that Samsung will be faster with this update than being with the previous one, but certainly no guarantee. The fact is that the Korean company is already testing a UI 8, looks internally like a good sign, but we will not make any bets based on this information alone.

The first UI 8 build for the Galaxy S25 series was seen today on Samsung’s firmware server, and the good news is that the company has started development two months before normal. Then, Android can also come out earlier than 16 years. Perhaps there is a chance that Samsung will issue a UI 8 update by the end of the year at this rate. We will tell you that when we find out more.
