One UI 7 Beta Program has shut down in Korea!

The beta program for One UI 7 started with the Galaxy S24 on December 5th, 2024. This happened after too much anticipation from users who were eager to try it out. Since then, Samsung had released six beta versions of One UI 7, while expanding the beta program to more eligible devices on March 2025.

Today marks the end of the complete Beta program in Korea, which coincides with the continued rollout expansion to more markets and more countries, such as the USA version of the Galaxy Tab S8 getting One UI 7 and the Korean version of the A55 5G shutting its Beta program down with a stable version rollout. The complete Beta program for other countries has ended earlier for all countries except India where the A55 there is yet to receive the stable update.

As a result, it’s been five months and three days from the start of the Beta program (December 5th, 2024) to the end of it (May 7th, 2025). Before, the One UI 6 Watch Beta Program had a similar duration, which started on June 12th, 2024, and ended on November 28th, 2024, with the total duration of five months and seventeen days.

It was a very tough time for those who didn’t join the Beta program, but the wait was worth it to get the One UI 7 stable update, which should land on more devices, including ours, soon!

One UI 7 Beta 5 automatically turns off battery protection after update

Samsung has recently revealed the fifth beta version of One UI 7 that fixed many bugs and improved several of the elements, including the battery charging animation on the status bar. However, people have been reporting that after the One UI 7 Beta 5 update gets installed to their phones, the battery protection would automatically turn off.

Luckily, people are able to turn the battery protection settings on. It’s just a case of a settings entry not preserving its value after the update, but it’s more like the battery protection has actually been turned off after the update.

This is taken from the Galaxy Tab S8, which is currently running One UI 6.1.1.

You can turn the battery protection back on by going to Settings > Battery > Battery protection, and turning the toggle on if it’s off after the update.
