Samsung has now dropped the One UI 8 Watch Beta 3 update for the Galaxy Watch 6 and Classic. The company is running a Beta Program in South Korea, with users are now getting a new Beta four weeks after the second release.

One UI 8 Watch Beta 3 brings crucial bug fixes to the Galaxy Watch 6. This update targets voice recording and media controller functions. It’s an important release that brings users closer to the Stable One UI 8 Watch update.

Samsung’s One UI 8 Watch is built on Google’s Wear OS 6. It’s a successor to the One UI 6 Watch, as One UI 7 Watch term was not utilized. The OS introduces a new tile system that delivers important updates at a glance.

The Stable update has already rolled out to the Galaxy Watch 7 and Watch Ultra 2024. The company didn’t take much time for the Watch Ultra, but Watch 7’s testing lasted longer; but it won’t be the case for the Watch 6.

With the third Beta, Samsung has addressed issues related to audio recording and media controller. Users who reported issues with these two aspects will now have a better experience, with even more enhancements likely included.

Changelog

Improved performance issues

• Fixed the voice recording not operating normally
• Fixed the media controller not operating normally

If you’ve participated in the Beta Program and are running the second Beta, you would have received the third Beta OTA. Access it using the Wearable app; follow the steps: Watch settings > Watch software update > Download and install.

Google Messages will soon integrate a “Trash” folder, an idea inspired by Samsung’s Recycle Bin feature.

Galaxy phones prioritize Google Messages, instead of Samsung Messages, to offer modern chat features like RCS. However, Google’s native messaging app is still evolving, and Samsung is playing a key role, indeed indirectly.

Google Messages app’s latest Beta shows signs of an upcoming Recycle Bin-like “Trash” feature. It will help users recover deleted chats, just like Gmail. The app will keep deleted chats stored in a separate memory for 30 days.

Samsung Messages has the same feature as the Recycle Bin. When you delete a chat, it goes right to the Recycle Bin, a dedicated folder. You have 30 days to restore the deleted chat; otherwise, it will be permanently wiped out.

Google Messages prioritizes the term “Trash Folder” for this feature, similar to Files by Google. Leaked code snippets suggest the “Trash Folder” will be put on the task to store recoverable “Trashed Conversations.”

All in all, Samsung users are going to benefit much from this feature. It will effectively safeguard messages and prevent the loss of accidental removals.

While Samsung Messages has had it for years, Google’s version is in early stages. The current development is limited to code snippets, and we could see a preview of this feature in the next Beta builds of the application.

Let’s see when Google Messages begins the rollout of its trash folder.

Samsung has new software updates for the Galaxy Tab S10 and Tab S9 series. The company has recently released a major One UI 8 upgrade for its premium tablets, while the latest updates aim to improve system security.

Galaxy Tab S10 and Galaxy Tab S9 series are getting Samsung’s September and October security patch updates, respectively. Despite having a generation gap, the older tablet lineup is receiving a better, newer security patch.

Users of the Galaxy Tab S10, Tab S10 Plus, Tab S9, Tab S9 Plus, and Tab S9 Ultra can expect a notable boost in performance and stability. The latest updates may also have carried improvements for features across the OS.

Firmware update versions:

• CYJ4 – Galaxy Tab S10 series
• DYJ2 – Galaxy Tab S9 series

Initially available in South Korea, the new software updates will soon be available in the Global market. You can manually check for updates through Settings > Software update > Download and install.

One UI 8 introduces major refinements for the user interface. Samsung has also tweaked the Quick Settings and Notification Panel. The windows are now impressively optimized for tablet form factor and have adopted dynamic blur.

Samsung recently started the Android 16 rollout to the Galaxy Tab S8 series. The company didn’t expand key Galaxy AI features with the Tab S9 and Tab S8 series; however, the Tab S10 series has received Now Brief and Audio Eraser.

Meanwhile, a major interface overhaul is being prepared along with a set of new features. These upgrades will be provided as part of One UI 8.5. You can expect the Android 16-based One UI 8.5 update in the second quarter of 2026.

Samsung is preparing at least three major upgrades for the Galaxy Z Fold 8. With Apple reportedly pushing its foldable iPhone launch plans to 2027, Samsung is utilizing this opportunity to raise the bar of this smartphone segment.

A new report (via Jukan/X) reveals how Samsung could bring major upgrades to the Galaxy Z Fold 8 ahead of Apple’s entry to the foldable lineup.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Upgrades

Samsung’s next Galaxy Z Fold model is expected to improve performance by improving its screen and battery, as well as retaining stylus support.

1. Display

Samsung Display may use its advanced laser drilling metal plate technology. This technological shift is slated to significantly reduce the display crease on the Galaxy Z Fold 8.

Over the years, Samsung has improved the crease, but there’s still room for improvement. The next year’s Z Fold model may be equipped with a screen with almost an invisible crease.

2. Battery

Samsung may bring a battery near 5,000mAh to the Galaxy Z Fold 8. It will be a big boost over the 4,400mAh battery on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and previous models.

The report suggests 5,000mAh could be the typical capacity, meaning the rated battery capacity could exceed this mark; however, it remains a matter of internal consideration.

3. S Pen

Galaxy Z Fold 7 screen lost the stylus input support to reduce thickness. However, Samsung might bring it back with the next-gen foldable smartphone in 2026.

The Korean tech giant is working on a futuristic display technology inspired by Apple Pencil solution; without the requirement of a digitiser film, the panel could recognize stylus input.

If you’re considering buying the perfect foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 would be for you. Well, this year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7 smartphone also has significant upgrades in terms of design, display, camera, and performance.

On October 28, Samsung put its most ambitious Galaxy Z TriFold smartphone prototype on showcase on the sidelines of the APEC Summit.

At K-Tech Showcase, Samsung officially unveiled its Galaxy Z TriFold smartphone, which features a dual-hinge mechanism to fold twice. This innovative form factor is set to be commercialized by Samsung by the end of the year.

Following this showcase, we’re expecting a little bigger reveal by Samsung during the APEC Summit, which is being held on October 31 and November 1.

It’s an expansion to the existing Galaxy Z Fold lineup, which features a single hinge and unfolds a single time. The dual-hinge mechanism integrates three folding panels into one, and the smartphone can be unfolded twice.

The unit put on showcase is a prototype unit, as the mass production and official release in expected by the end of the year. Until then, Samsung might bring even more refinements to the hardware, software, and appearance.

Samsung did not allow visitors to touch or use the device directly. It was placed behind a protective glass display case. Meanwhile, tipster Phoneart has also dropped pictures showing off a closer look at the phone’s design.

Galaxy Z TriFold is rumored to have a 6.5-inch cover screen, and the main screens could be extended to 10 inches. That said, the device will become even bigger than the Galaxy Z Fold 7 phone, which has an 8-inch screen.

While the US release is unlikely, Samsung might launch the Galaxy Z TriFold with a price tag of between $2,600 $2,800. Its presence could be limited to select countries: South Korea, China, Singapore, Taiwan, and the UAE.

Apple might equip the entire iPhone 18 lineup with 18GB of RAM. This year’s Pro and Pro Max models have upgraded their RAM capacity to 12GB, which is expected to expand to the Base and Plus/Air models next year.

TheBell reports that Apple informed Samsung of an increased requirement for LPDDR5X memory for the iPhone 18 series. Samsung is the only vendor producing 12GB and 16GB LPDDR5X RAMs, so the shift is highly likely.

An upgraded 12GB RAM on the iPhone 18 will help Apple Intelligence run more effectively. It will also provide a crucial boost to on-device AI processing. For this crucial shift, Apple is reportedly seeking the help of Samsung.

Apple’s base and Plus/Air models compete with Samsung’s Galaxy S and Plus/Edge flagships. Samsung has the Galaxy S Ultra to rival Apple’s iPhone Pro and Pro Max versions with the most premium-tier hardware and features.

Samsung upgraded the Galaxy S lineup’s RAM in 2025, taking it to 12GB across models. Apple will catch up to Samsung in the memory segment with its next-gen iPhones.

12GB won’t sound like a decent upgrade in 2026 iPhones, as there are plenty of devices available with even more, 16GB or 24GB RAM. However, the software optimization plays a key role here as just hardware can’t deliver alone.

Another major shift in the pipeline is a new strategic launch timeline. The base iPhones might launch in the first quarter, starting in 2026, while the Pro and Pro Max would be introduced in the third quarter, as usual.

Samsung is getting ready to launch its next wireless earbuds, the Galaxy Buds 4 and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. The company seems to be giving this new lineup a unique and creative touch. Instead of using simple or color-based codenames like in the past, Samsung has chosen names inspired by classical composers.

According to information via Android Authority, the latest One UI 8.5 software revealed important details about these upcoming earbuds. In Samsung’s Buds Manager app, the Buds 4 are listed under the codename “Handel,” while the Buds 4 Pro are called “Bach.”

Both names come from famous German composers, which shows that Samsung is adding a touch of classical music flair to its new products. This is a new direction for Samsung, as older Galaxy Buds had much simpler codenames.

While the names Galaxy Buds 4 and Buds 4 Pro had already been seen before, this is the first time we’ve learned about their codenames.  These names are quite different from previous generations. For example, the Galaxy Buds 2 were called “Berry” internally, while the Buds 3, 3 Pro, and 3 FE used “Jelly,” “Paran,” and “Gemstone.”

The new musical codenames might hint that Samsung is aiming for a more elegant design or an improved listening experience. So far, there are no leaked images or official previews of the Galaxy Buds 4 series. Only some icons have appeared in the early One UI 8.5 builds, and it’s unclear if they represent the final design.

Still, it’s clear that Samsung is continuing to improve its popular audio lineup while also working on new products like the Galaxy XR headset. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung’s Galaxy S20 FE has officially received its last security update. October 2025 security patch is the final update the phone will get. While the device is still up-to-date now, it will no longer receive future updates.

The Galaxy S20 FE is part of Samsung’s “Fan Edition” lineup, which offers many features of Samsung’s flagship phones at a lower price. When it was released, it was a popular choice because it combined strong performance and useful features without the high cost of a full flagship model.

Samsung now supports newer phones for longer periods. Many new Android phones get updates for about seven years, but the Galaxy S20 FE came out before this policy. It means that this FE will no longer receive security updates.

The successor of the Galaxy S20 FE, the Galaxy S21 FE, is also nearing the end of its support, while the new Galaxy S25 FE is in its first year of a seven-year update plan. This means the S25 FE will continue to receive both Android and security updates until 2032.

For anyone still using the S20 FE, this is a good time to think about upgrading. Samsung is offering the Galaxy S25 FE at an amazing discount with a trade-in and even includes a free storage upgrade. While the S20 FE will still work, it will gradually lose protection against security threats.

The post Your Samsung Galaxy S20 FE is now out of date – Here’s why it matters appeared first on Sammy Fans.

Samsung has started rolling out the October 2025 security update for the Galaxy S21 FE. Right now, it is available for users in Vietnam, and it will reach other countries soon. This update comes soon after Samsung began releasing the One UI 8 update for the device.

Samsung is preparing to roll out its next big software update, One UI 8.5, and leaks have already started revealing some of the exciting changes coming to Galaxy devices. One UI 8.5 is expected to make photo editing easier and smarter, especially with a big change to Samsung’s popular Object Eraser feature.

According to the latest information via @Tarunvats, Samsung is planning to combine the Object Eraser tool with the Generative Edit feature in the Gallery app. This means users will be able to remove unwanted people, objects, or shadows from their photos more easily and quickly.

Notably, the Object Eraser, first introduced with the Galaxy S21 series, has been a fan-favorite AI feature that makes photo editing simple for everyone. Now, a new change for Object Eraser has been spotted in a leaked test version of One UI 8.5.

— Tarun Vats (@tarunvats33) October 26, 2025

With the new setup, users can use Object Eraser directly from the Generative Edit option instead of switching between tools. This will make photo editing faster and more convenient.

Other leaks also mention new design changes coming with One UI 8.5. Samsung may add a “Create” button at the bottom of the Gallery app with a clean blur effect, along with a refreshed Favorites card design in the Contacts app. It also brings new AI features, a fully customizable quick panel, and more.

For now, these new changes are based on an internal test build, so Samsung has not officially confirmed any details. The final version of One UI 8.5 may include all or some of these features. It is expected to arrive with the Galaxy S26 series next year. Stay tuned.

Samsung is rolling out a new software update to the Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro with charging improvement. The company’s premium earbuds are receiving this firmware in South Korea, with expansion likely in the coming days.

October 2025 update for the Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds 3 Pro includes a “stability code related to charging operation.” Samsung recommends users install this new software to experience optimal performance and experience.

Galaxy Buds leverage on charging case to juice up their batteries. However, Samsung’s patch could mainly focus on the battery aspect to improve the charging. The battery life may also get a little boost, elevating the user experience.

In addition, the update should’ve also carried stability enhancements. Meanwhile, no new feature’s addition has been observed so far. If you find any new, kindly let us know through DM on X @thesammyfans.

• R530XXU0AYJ1 – Galaxy Buds 3

A report from a Korean media claims that Samsung was ousted from Nvidia HBM4 supply in the early stage. The company has just secured a long-overdue approval for HBM3E from Nvidia, but the new rumor claims different.

NewsTopKorea article (now deleted) claimed the HBM4 samples supplied by Samsung have been rejected in the qualification test by Nvidia. However, analyst Jukan confirmed with his sources and reported on X that the rumor was fake.

Besides HBM4, the report also stated that Nvidia didn’t award supply volumes to Samsung for HBM3E chips despite quality certification. Similar to HBM4, the HBM3E supply rejection also seems to be a baseless information.

• Samsung moves to mass production of HBM3E 12-layer chips for NVIDIA

The next-gen Nvidia AI accelerators will utilize HBM4, a major leap over HBM3E. The company requires even faster high-bandwidth memories for its AI accelerators, and HBM4 will be the next trending solution in the AI era.

Back in September, Samsung’s reportedly sent HBM4 chip samples to Nvidia. The qualification assessment might still be underway, and the Korean tech giant may eventually turn things in its favor, given foundry improvements.

Unexpected news coming out from Samsung’s home ground, where a Galaxy S25 Plus caught fire moments after excessive overheating.

A user of the Galaxy S25 Plus reported the incident on Samsung’s Korean community (via @ya_sking12767). As per the forum post, the Galaxy S25 Plus has suddenly started overheating; estimating the potential fire, the user threw it away.

This incident puts Samsung’s product safety in question once again. It seems the owner of the affected device is safe; that’s the best news in this incident. The quick decision to throw away the phone has avoided critical damage.

Following the incident, the user took their phone in an exploded condition to nearby service center. However, the initial investigation didn’t reveal the exact cause of this unexpected explosion, which must be thoroughly investigated.

The user, who faced this issue, reported:

The S25+ I was holding got extremely hot and made a popping sound, so I threw it on the floor, and then a fire broke out. The Samsung Service Center says the investigation concluded the cause is unknown.

As the complaint is posted in the official community, Samsung would directly contact the user. The device might be picked up from the user’s end for further investigation, and hopefully, they will get a new unit as a replacement.

Galaxy S25 Plus Battery & Charging

Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Plus comes with a 4,900mAh battery and supports up to 45W fast charging. It’s a safe battery capacity, which the company has been utilizing for more than half a decade on the Galaxy S Ultra version.

The user claims the phone was not put on charge. Meanwhile, the comment section is filled with mixed reactions, with some concerned about their S25 devices, while some are guessing a 3rd-party charger may have been used.

We recommend that readers keep monitoring their phone’s temperature. It may generate heat in certain tasks, but if you notice an excessive level of overheating, stop using it and keep away until it gets cooler, and visit the service center.

This article will be refreshed when a new update arrives on the matter.

Google Chrome browser has now adopted a complete Material 3 Expressive design. The deployment of new UI components was initiated in late August, and Google took almost two months to fully deploy the interface.

Samsung phones have also received the updated Chrome with new Expressive design elements. The leading internet browser app has turned a bit more visually appealing, thanks to Google’s brand-new design language.

Google’s Chrome app has tweaked its 3-dot menu and tab grid.

The 3-dot menu now has forward, bookmark, download, site info, and refresh buttons in circular containers at the top. In the screenshots attached, you can see the Chrome app’s 3-dot overflow menu in Light and Dark modes.

Next is the Tab Grid, which has painted the new tab “plus” icon into dynamic color. Depending on your phone’s theming settings, Chrome’s “plus” key within the Tab Grid will appear be it Blue, Pink, or Monochrome.

When you swipe to close a tab, a pop-up appears at the bottom that has adopted a shadow effect. Tabs in the Incognito mode and Group switcher are also tweaked with the addition of a separate container with a squircle button.

Some components on Samsung phones differ from Google Pixels, probably due to a staged rollout. You may notice even more differences if you’ve a color palette applied, so don’t consider it a bug or deficiency.

Remember Sam Sung, the guy who became an internet legend for working at an Apple Store with a name like Samsung?

BusinessInsider recently reported the news that Sam Sung has decided to leave his infamous moniker behind. He’s now going by Sam Struan, who was working as a regular Apple Store specialist in Vancouver, Canada.

“I was at my other part-time job, and my phone wouldn’t stop ringing,” Struan said. “I thought someone had died. Then I saw a text saying I’d gone viral on Reddit.”

Imagine the chaos: people calling the Apple Store, asking if “Sam Sung” really worked there, reporters showing up, and the store pulling him off the sales floor to keep things under wraps.

“I’d just moved to Canada, early in my career, and I was terrified I’d get fired,” he admitted. “Looking back, firing me would’ve caused an even bigger PR mess for Apple.”

Struan, who previously worked at an Apple Store in Glasgow, Scotland, said the viral moment pushed him to rethink his identity. A year later, he left Apple and changed his name to Struan, inspired by a Scottish village.

“It wasn’t like I was famous for something cool like charity work or a big achievement,” he said. “It was just a dumb online joke.”

Struan once auctioned off his old Apple business card with the name Sam Sung for $2,500 and donated it all to charity. “It felt good to take something that was so stressful and turn it into something positive,” he said.

Samsung India expects its Galaxy M-series of smartphones will hit the 60 million sales milestone by the end of 2025. Recently, the company’s India subsidiary’s top MX official has made notable remarks in an interview.

The smartphone industry doesn’t only run with flagship and foldable phones. Entry-level and mid-range phones play a vital role in overall sales. And this particular segment has the most intense competition and numerous brands.

Samsung, in the meantime, maintains its lead with offerings that stand out. The software longevity (6-year support) is unmatchable, and the addition of intelligent features extends the sales potential of its non-premium handsets.

Akshay S Rao, Director, MX Business, Samsung India, told HindustanTimes that the Galaxy M-series is crucial for the brand. This lineup helps the company maintain robust sales in the competitive segment of $150.

Akshay S Rao, Director, MX Business, Samsung India, said:

“By the end of 2025, we (Samsung) expect to cross a milestone of 60 million handsets sold.” He added, “Our goal is to deliver unique propositions across price points, ensuring that every buyer finds a compelling reason to choose Samsung.”

Back in 2019, Samsung introduced the Galaxy M series, which comprises entry-level to mid-range phones. The segment’s Galaxy M16 5G impressed the industry with its epic sales, and its successor has taken the charge.

Galaxy M17 5G

The official revealed that the Galaxy M16 was one of the best-sellers in the INR 10,000 – INR 15,000 segment and even went out of stock during the festive season. Samsung now expects an even better response from the Galaxy M17 5G.

The new smartphone comes with a camera equipped with OIS technology. It has more pro-grade features like Gorilla Glass protection, Super AMOLED screen with 1,100 nits brightness, and an IP rating for dust and water resistance.

Samsung also worked on the design to wipe out the bulky tag from its Galaxy M phones. The new Galaxy M17 5G is just 7.5mm thick, making it one of the slimmest phones in the price range of around INR 12,999.

Samsung is expected to launch its most ambitious TriFold sometime in 2025, but the phone might skip the US. A veteran tech leaker has poured cold water on global availability for the first TriFold phone from Samsung.

Leaker EvanBlass revealed the countries in which the Samsung TriFold phone could launch, and it excludes the US. This input renders the previous rumors baseless, which claimed a potential US debut at the initial reveal.

The source expresses skepticism about the global rollout of Samsung’s debut trifold, limiting it to South Korea, the greater Chinese market (including Singapore and Taiwan), and possibly the UAE, despite contrary rumors.

It might be disappointing for the foldable enthusiasts, but Samsung is playing it safe. It would follow the OG Galaxy Fold strategy to bring the product to key Asian markets to experiment with the reliability and sales potential.

Over the past couple of weeks, various rumors have hinted at the potential launch countries of the TriFold smartphone. Beyond that, Samsung is rumored to introduce its new form-factor device at the APEC summit 2025.

Even though the US has become a solid market for Samsung’s foldable phones, the first TriFold may skip the launch stateside. Higher costs of the triple foldable display and supply chain challenges could be the key reasons.

Meanwhile, it’s also likely that the device will initially be available in select markets, with gradual expansion may take it to the United States. Well, it depends completely on the supply chain and what Samsung has planned.

It’s been over a month since Samsung started the official One UI 8 rollout, and the delay list is growing, but very slowly. The company has operated a swift expansion, but some model still seems to be unlucky in rollout.

Samsung’s One UI 8 is based on Android 16, which is one of the fastest to show up after its predecessor. The rollout was pushed by Google’s advancement in bringing the Android 16 version around three months early.

One UI 7 took the longest time in Samsung’s history to go stable. One UI 8 did just the opposite, didn’t make users wait much. Even though the scope of changes isn’t vast, the timeline has returned to Samsung’s usual schedule.

Meanwhile, users of select Galaxy devices are facing a delay in availability as Samsung is pulling the latest firmware from its server. Notably, it’s happening even weeks after the day when the initial rollout was started for users.

The list is growing.

Samsung One UI 8 Delay List

• Galaxy Z Fold SE
• Galaxy S22 series
• Galaxy S24 series
• Galaxy M53
• Galaxy S23 series

Bolded font meant to “rollout still on pause.”

One UI 8

Galaxy Z Fold SE was the first Samsung model hit by the One UI 8 rollout pause. Meanwhile, the release started a little later in South Korea.

Galaxy S22 series then followed the Special Edition foldable, and after putting the firmware briefly on hold, Samsung resumed the expansion.

Last week, the Galaxy S24 series in South Korea was spotted as the most recent victim; the availability hasn’t yet been reinstated, while users have already installed the build.

As spotted by firmware detective MohammedKhatri, Samsung apparently put Galaxy M53’s One UI 8 rollout in Korea, as of October 20, 2025. It’s quite disappointing for Global users who were waiting for their turn.

On October 21, Samsung hit the pause on the update’s rollout to the Galaxy S23 series.

As the expansion continues globally, we could see even more models hit by a sudden halt in the expansion.

Last week, Samsung resumed the update rollout to the Galaxy S23 and S24 series with the October 2025 patch.

Samsung is recreating its Galaxy S26 series, following the Edge’s departure. We’ve heard for months about the killing of the Base and Plus models and the joining of a new Pro and Edge. With Samsung rethinking the Galaxy S26 lineup, fans are looking forward to seeing a charging speed boost in the vanilla model.

It turns out that Samsung may launch its so-called Galaxy S26 Pro without a Pro tag. Rumors revealed a disappointing 25W charging speed, and Samsung should take it to 45W on the Galaxy S26 smartphone.

Galaxy S26 with 45W charging

Faster charging speed on the Galaxy S26 is an urgent requirement. Samsung can’t pass on its 2026 flagship smartphone with just 25W charging. It becomes a must after 45W support on various unexpected devices.

Over the past couple of months, Samsung has launched some mid-range phones with 45W charging speed. It even offered the same treatment to the Galaxy S25 FE, getting a Plus-like large battery and 45W fast charging.

Galaxy S25 has rendered the most odd version among all these phones. The flagship costs a huge $800 and feels outdated due to its battery capacity and charging speed.

The Galaxy S26 could come with a 4,300mAh battery, while the charging speed is yet to be known. Previous rumors hinted at 25W, but it should be replaced with 45W speed to match the Plus model, and the Fan Edition too.

Galaxy S26 Ultra

The Galaxy S26 Ultra could support 60W charging speed, helping the battery to charge from 0 to 80% in roughly 30 minutes. With the same size of battery, the charging upgrade will make a practical impact on user experience.

Samsung has reportedly delayed the Galaxy S26 series launch to March 2026. The late development of Galaxy S26 Plus appears to be the main reason, but the company might have been securing additional time for its Exynos.

Samsung and RM of BTS have collaborated to release a promotional video for Art TV. The campaign has commenced to coincide with Art Basel Paris 2025.

The promotional video from Samsung and BTS RM aims to capture how artworks, typically hung in museums, permeate our everyday living spaces through Samsung Art TV.

Exclusively available on Samsung Art TV models, the Art Store is an art subscription service that offers over 4,000 artworks from global museums and galleries in 4K resolution.

Three new artworks

RM of BTS introduced artworks that evoke the tranquility and poetic mood of an autumn landscape in his short film. The artworks include Keith Haring’s “Dancing Dog,” Lee Shinja’s “Spirit of Mountain,” and Natasha Durley’s “Super Moon.”

“Art has always been a way for me to reflect, to connect, and to find meaning in everyday moments,” said RM. “It’s exciting that the artworks that inspire me can now be enjoyed by anyone, right at home. With Samsung Art TV, I can bring a world of creativity into my space—and I hope everyone will be inspired to explore art in theirs, too.”

Samsung also revealed the Art TVs used by RM in the short clip. The models are the 2025 The Frame Pro (Model: LSF03) and the Neo QLED 8K (Model: QNF900). These models bring artworks to life with vibrant picture quality.

The Frame Pro features a Matte Display that minimizes glare to reproduce the texture of the artwork. The Neo QLED 8K delivers exceptional color, contrast, and depth, enabling the vivid capture of brushstrokes and light.

Samsung is reportedly preparing for One UI 8.5, which could debut alongside the Galaxy S26 series early next year. However, recent reports suggest the company might be running late with the Galaxy S26 launch, possibly pushing the event beyond January 2026.

The delay appears to be connected to Samsung’s change in its phone lineup. Earlier rumors said the regular Galaxy S26 might be called “Pro” and a slim “Edge” model would replace the “Plus”.

Now, those plans are reportedly canceled. Samsung is going back to the familiar lineup – Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Plus, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. The Plus model is back, while the Edge and Pro names are gone.

This could also affect One UI 8.5. Since the Galaxy S26 Plus development is running late, the release of One UI 8.5 Beta may also be delayed. If the Galaxy Unpacked event is postponed to late February or early March, users will also have to wait longer to get another major update.

Phones in picture – Galaxy S25 Ultra, Plus and vanilla

However, the One UI 8.5 Beta program might start in late November, which gives users an early look at new features. But if the phone launch is postponed, the beta could run for several months before the official release, which may feel long for eager users. Or Samsung might delay One UI 8.5 Beta Program.

Despite these delays, the changes could be beneficial. Samsung seems focused on improving hardware and software, with upgrades expected in performance and camera capabilities with the next series. Going back to a simple naming system also makes it easier for people to understand the lineup.

While fans might be disappointed by the delay, it could mean a more polished experience when new phones and software finally launch. Samsung has not confirmed any dates yet, so users will have to wait for official announcements.

The return of Galaxy S26 Plus and the lineup reshuffle may push back the One UI 8.5 beta, but it could result in better phones and a smoother software update for users in 2026. Stay tuned.

Samsung has pushed an Android 16-based One UI 8 update for the Galaxy A15 5G and Galaxy Tab S9+ 5G on the Verizon network carrier in the US. This update gives users the latest Android experience with better design, smoother performance, and stronger privacy and security protection.

The new firmware versions are A156USQU7DYIB for the Galaxy A15 5G and X818USQU6DYJ1 for the Galaxy Tab S9+ 5G. This major update will soon expand to all models.

One UI 8 brings several new features and visual upgrades. A key highlight is Gemini Live, a smart AI assistant that helps you interact naturally with your phone. You can point your camera at something and ask Gemini what it is, or share your screen to get help without switching apps.

The update also adds wallpaper recommendations from your Gallery, suggesting photos that look great as wallpapers. The lock screen has been redesigned with stylish new clock layouts and fonts that adapt to your photos, especially ones with people or pets. You can also control your Galaxy Buds directly from the Settings app without needing the Galaxy Wearable app.

To get the update, go to Settings >> Software update >> Download and install. Make sure your device is charged and connected to Wi-Fi before starting. As this update is rolling out gradually for Verizon users, it may take a few days to appear on all devices.

Many Galaxy users enjoy using the Samsung Health app together with their Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Watch to track workouts, listen to music, and stay active. However, some users with phones running One UI 7 (Android 15) have noticed a small issue.

When some Galaxy users start a workout using the Samsung Health app, the exercise guide voice plays at the same volume as their music. This can make the workout experience uncomfortable, as users can’t control the guide and music volume separately.

The problem happens when the Galaxy Buds and Galaxy Watch are both connected to a phone running One UI 7. During workouts, it can be frustrating when you want to keep your music high but prefer softer guide notifications.

Fortunately, Samsung has acknowledged the issue and suggested a few easy steps to fix or reduce the issue. You can do this by checking the app permissions, restarting the app, and updating your phone.

To fix the problem, long-press the Samsung Health app icon and tap the App info button. Go to Alarms and Reminders and make sure Allow Permissions is turned on. If the app’s Battery setting is set to No limit, you may not see this option. Then, return to the app info screen and tap Force stop. Finally, open the Samsung Health app again to restart it.

If the issue continues, try updating your phone to One UI 8 (Android 16), as newer updates often include performance and sound improvements. Go to Settings >> Software update >> Download and install.

After following these steps, your Galaxy Buds, Galaxy Watch, and Samsung Health app should work more smoothly. These solutions give you a better workout experience with balanced sound and clearer audio guidance.

Google has made it easier to create presentations with its Gemini app. The Canvas tool in Gemini can now take a document or even a short text and turn it into a complete slide deck in just seconds. This is perfect for anyone who has stared at a blank Google Slides page, unsure where to start.

With this new feature, you can upload a report, research paper, or any text file, and Canvas will automatically make a presentation for you. The slides are already organized with sections, visuals, and design formatting.

You can then export the draft directly to Google Slides and make any final changes. This saves a lot of time, as you no longer need to copy text, design slides, or look for pictures yourself.

The feature is currently being rolled out for both personal and Workspace accounts. Early reports show that Pro subscribers are getting access first, but it should be available to free users soon.

This builds on Canvas’s earlier feature, which helped users write and edit text with the help of Gemini’s AI. Now, it goes further by turning written work into slides that are ready to present.

This update is especially handy for students, teachers, and professionals who often need to make presentations. Instead of spending hours designing slides, you can rely on Gemini to create a first draft and then tweak it to your liking.

Google is working on a new feature to make multitasking on Android tablets much easier. Tablets already have features like a taskbar, split-screen mode, and improved drag-and-drop, but they still aren’t as powerful as PCs when it comes to using multiple apps at once.

The new feature could let you open any app in a floating bubble. Right now, bubbles only work with messaging apps. But with this update, you might be able to open apps, such as YouTube, Chrome, or Gmail, in small floating windows. This would make it easier to use several apps at the same time, even on smaller screens.

Recent updates in Android 2510 Canary show signs of this feature. The Pixel Launcher, which manages the home screen and taskbar, includes a new tutorial.

It explains that you can “drag an app to the bottom corners to make it float.” An animation shows an app being dragged from the taskbar to the bottom right corner, opening in a small bubble instead of split-screen.

This new drag gesture is simple and fits well with how other multitasking features work. Instead of tapping a button, you just drag the app. Since Android already lets you add any app to the taskbar, it seems likely that this bubble feature will work with all apps, not just messaging.

Google hasn’t officially confirmed the feature yet, but the tutorial suggests it is coming. It could arrive in Android 16’s third quarterly release (QPR3) next March. If this feature launches, it would make Android tablets much easier to use for multitasking.

Samsung has released a new update for its web browser, Samsung Internet, bringing it to version 29.0.0.59 (v29). The update adds a few useful features that make browsing easier and better organized. These features were first tested in the Samsung Internet Beta app and are now available for everyone using the regular version.

The new feature of the Samsung Internet app is Auto Close Unused Tabs. This feature helps you automatically close tabs that you haven’t used for a while. Many people keep several tabs open and forget about them, which can slow down the browser or make it messy.

With this option, Samsung Internet can close old tabs after a certain time, keeping your tab list clean and improving performance. You can choose how long tabs stay open or turn off the feature if you prefer to close them yourself.

Moreover, this update also adds a new Grid View for Tab Manager. This new design shows your open tabs as small boxes or previews, making it easy to find and switch between them. The layout looks cleaner and helps you manage multiple tabs without confusion.

These updates were already available for beta users, and now Samsung is bringing them to everyone. The new version shows that Samsung continues to focus on improving user experience and keeping its browser fast, simple, and reliable.

Samsung Internet v29 update is rolling out gradually through the Galaxy Store >> Menu option >> Updates. Download it now and enjoy new features.

Samsung has started rolling out the October 2025 security update for the Galaxy S25 series in the USA. The update was already available in some other countries, and now Verizon-locked models in the USA are getting it. The rollout will expand to more carriers in the coming days.

Users of the Samsung Galaxy S25 series can verify the October 2025 security update in the US via One UI build versions given below.

• Galaxy S25 – S931USQS6BYIF
• Galaxy S25 Plus – S936USQS6BYIF
• Galaxy S25 Ultra – S938USQS6BYIF

This update is based on One UI 8 and Android 16. It mainly focuses on improving the phone’s security and performance rather than adding new features. The October 2025 patch fixes 14 security issues found in Android, although 6 of them do not affect Samsung devices.

Image – Samsung Galaxy S25, Plus and Ultra

Along with Google’s fixes, Samsung has added 20 extra security updates that deal with problems found in its own software, One UI. These updates help protect users from possible risks and make their Galaxy phones safer to use.

While this update is mostly about security, Samsung is already working on a bigger update, One UI 8.5. Early test versions of this update have already appeared, showing new AI features, design changes, and other improvements.

Samsung is expected to start the One UI 8.5 Beta Program in late November, allowing some users to try out new features before the official release. For now, Galaxy S25 users should install the latest update to keep their devices secure and running smoothly. To check for the update, go to Settings >> Software update >> Download and install.
