TL; DR

One UI 7 Beta goes live on December 5, 2024, for the Galaxy S24 series, starting in Germany.
The update includes a revamped control center, new media player design, and smoother animations.

Samsung is finally dropping the One UI 7 Beta, and it’ll first be available on the S24 series. After months of teasing and delays, Samsung Support just confirmed the Beta program starts December 5, 2024, exclusively for the Galaxy S24 series (excluding the FE). Registrations open at midnight, but it’s rolling out in Germany first.

For now, the Beta is limited to German users with EUB devices. If you’re wondering whether your device qualifies, you’ll need the IMEI number to verify its variant. Samsung shared an infographic with a user highlighting the Beta launch, and yes, it’s happening in Germany first, with other regions to follow soon.

The update brings massive changes, from the control center to revamped animations and a fresh media player design. It looks like Ice Universe has already got his hands on One UI 7 as he’s shared glimpses of the Beta, on what seems to be a Galaxy S24+.

The control center now features a stunning blur effect, while the lock screen media player showcases album art in a revamped design. Animations look smoother than ever.
