• Samsung quietly put phones running an early build of One UI 7 on the show floor at SDC 2024.
• There are some controversial design changes, including a split notifications/Quick Settings tiles pulldown and new icons.
• It’s possible some (or all) of these changes might not make it to the final release.

Samsung held its annual developer’s conference today, known as SDC. We expected the company to announce some news related to One UI 7, the Android 15-based skin that will land on Galaxy smartphones. Unfortunately, aside from some disappointing news about a 2025 release date, we didn’t learn much at all about the Android skin itself.

However, Samsung quietly left phones running an early build of the software hidden in plain sight at the show. Throughout the show floor, there were code stations where Samsung employees could help software engineers understand how to do certain things. There were probably 50+ stations at the show, but four of those stations had Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultras running One UI 7.
