Galaxy S23 FE and S24 FE get new One UI 8.5 Beta with Privacy Alerts feature

28 April 2026 at 12:42

Samsung just pushed the latest One UI 8.5 Beta update for Galaxy S23 FE and S24 FE. The former is getting the second Beta build, while the latter is picking up the third release.

The company has included crucial bug fixes, covering calling, proximity sensor, display and camera. In particular, the Galaxy S23 FE is seeing the addition of the Privacy Alerts feature, which gives users better visibility into how apps access sensitive data.

Alongside the new addition, Samsung has focused heavily on stability, addressing several long-standing issues that affected daily usability, especially around calls, camera performance, and system reliability.

The update fixes a frustrating bug where incoming calls sometimes showed a delayed or black screen, while also correcting inconsistent proximity sensor behavior during active calls.

Camera improvements include a fix for green line artifacts appearing during 4K HDR video recording in certain apps, a problem that had been reported by beta users recently.

Samsung has also resolved Bluetooth crash issues and improved multi-touch accuracy after using accessibility zoom, making the overall experience smoother and more consistent across different usage scenarios.
