Samsung is finally rolling out the One UI 7 update for its older foldable flagship devices, marking a significant turnaround from the initial delays that plagued the rollout. The One UI 7 update had a rocky start, with a brief halt before Samsung devised a new schedule. This revised timeline has brought good news for users, as several devices that were expected to receive the update later have been moved forward for an earlier upgrade. Currently, the Galaxy Z Fold 4, Galaxy Z Flip 4, and Galaxy S23 FE are receiving the One UI 7 update in South Korea.
While the rollout is limited to this region at the moment, it serves as a promising sign that a global release will follow shortly. Users should be aware that this is a substantial update, requiring at least 4-5 GB of free storage prior to downloading. As Samsung’s One UI 7 release schedule continues, updates are expected for the Galaxy S22 and S21 series in May, along with several Galaxy A series phones and Galaxy Tab devices. The initial phase of the rollout in April included the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy Z Fold 5, and Galaxy Z Flip 5, while May will see the addition of the Galaxy Z Fold 4, Z Flip 4, and others.
The timeline suggests an organized approach by Samsung, with the bulk of the devices slated to receive the update by the end of June. This structured release plan indicates confidence from Samsung, ensuring that users can look forward to the new features that One UI 7 promises.
