Samsung’s One UI 8.5 Beta Program is currently live for the Galaxy S25 series. As two beta updates have already been released, users are now expecting the release of the next beta update, One UI 8.5 Beta 3.

On December 8, Samsung pushed the first beta update of One UI 8.5 for the Galaxy S25 series, but in limited countries. Later, on December 22, Samsung rolled out the One UI 8.5 Beta 2 update, which expanded the beta program to more countries.

Now, it is expected that the One UI 8.5 Beta 3 update could be released early next year. Previous reports suggest that the third beta update may arrive for the Galaxy S25 series on January 5, 2026.

This date is highly expected because Samsung usually releases major updates on Mondays, and January 5 falls on a Monday next year. However, this is not officially confirmed yet.

Samsung has confirmed that the One UI 8.5 stable update will debut with the Galaxy S26 series next year, possibly in February 2026. Until then, Samsung may release more beta updates to ensure a smoother and more stable experience.

Currently, Samsung has not yet confirmed the beta update timeline. Additionally, it is still unclear how many beta updates will be released, as this depends on bugs and issues discovered during beta testing.

For now, users can expect the One UI 8.5 Beta 3 update for the Galaxy S25 series on January 5. Also, Samsung may soon expand the beta program to more Galaxy devices. Keep an eye on official releases and announcements from Samsung for confirmation and more details about the update rollout.
