Samsung's One UI 8 beta, based on Android 16, is now available for Galaxy S25 users in select countries. The 3.4GB update, accessible through the Samsung Members app, promises enhanced AI features and personalized suggestions via Now Brief. While installation is quick, significant improvements are not immediately apparent, with Now Brief largely unchanged. The beta focuses on multimodal capabilities and form factor-tailored UX but lacks concrete examples of impactful AI enhancements.
