Shortly after dropping the fifth Beta, Samsung has started testing One UI 8.5 Beta 6. With this move, Samsung has once again delayed the Stable rollout for the Galaxy S25 series.

Back in December, Samsung launched the One UI 8.5 Beta Program. Since its debut, the testing activity has been limited to the Galaxy S25 series. Meanwhile, the official unveiling is set to take place on February 25 in San Francisco.

Samsung has begun testing a new One UI 8.5 Beta for the Galaxy S26 series, which will be distributed as the Beta 6, via Alfaturk. The latest build carries PDA build version ending with ZZB7, with changes likely in the last digit.

Beta 4 brought Direct Voicemail, while Beta 5 debuted AI-powered Bixby. It seems the software has already hit the stability mark, and Samsung is now focusing on sequential deployment of new features from the S26 series.

If you’re on One UI 8.5 Beta 5, expect Beta 6 rollout early next month. Samsung may further stretch the Beta testing if more time is required. We may see up to seven/eight Beta builds like the previous One UI Beta testing programmes.

Stable One UI 8.5 update

With the Beta 6 testing, Samsung has made it clear: Stable update isn’t near. There’s no controversy as Samsung already confirmed the official rollout will begin in early March, with the new flagships debutting the new software.

The Galaxy S26 series is expected to go on sale on March 11. Samsung may not immediately share the software advancements with older devices. That said, existing models will likely begin receiving One UI 8.5 by April 2026.
