Tipster @theonecid has posted in regards to the launch schedule for the One UI 8.5 rollout on X. In keeping with their publish, the rollout for the Galaxy S25 collection, in addition to the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, may now start round Could 8. These dates are supposedly pulled from a service’s rollout schedule.
The tipster claims these dates are for Canada, which, if right, means that we may additionally witness a broader world rollout on or across the identical date.
Along with the Galaxy S25, the replace for older telephones, together with the Galaxy S24 collection, is predicted to comply with “shortly after.” This assumption relies on a remark from a Samsung group moderator, shared by consumer @galaxyupdatesx on X. Whereas this sounds promising, we will’t say something with confidence till Samsung points official updates.
That’s exactly what one other assist employees member has insisted on, as nicely. In keeping with a “Beta Moderator” in Samsung Group (through SammyFans), Beta schedules are versatile till finalized by Samsung, and “timelines might change based mostly on testing.” That is most likely why Samsung missed the earlier April 30 launch timeline hinted at by one other assist employees member earlier.
Nonetheless, since Samsung didn’t formally promise the rollout, we will’t pin any blame on it.
In the meantime, SammyFans additionally speculates that as we speak, Could 4, may very well be when Samsung kicks off the discharge in its homeland, South Korea, earlier than a wider launch globally. We’ll see whether or not that seems to be true or one other failed expectation.
