## Samsung’s Latest Galaxy Devices Face Software Rollout Delays

Samsung’s recently launched Galaxy Fold 7, Galaxy Flip 7, and Galaxy Watch Ultra are attracting attention, but the anticipated release of the One UI 8 software update is experiencing a slight delay. Initially, Samsung confirmed a September rollout, prioritizing the Galaxy S25 series for the initial distribution.

The timeline for One UI 8’s availability for the Fold 7, Flip 7, and Watch Ultra is now uncertain. A first-week September release appears unlikely, owing to a pending security update for the Galaxy S25 devices. Current projections suggest a potential stable release within the second or third week of September. Other Samsung devices are expected to follow a staggered rollout, with the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy Z Fold 6 likely receiving the update in October.

According to SamMobile’s Editor-in-Chief, Abhijeet, who has been reporting on Samsung devices since 2013, the delays are typical of large-scale software deployments. SamMobile may receive affiliate commissions related to product links.
