One UI 7.0 blur engine looks juicy in new leaked screenshots
 

Because Samsung wants to break new ground with One UI 7.0, the update's interface design has remained in question. Will the final version of One UI 7.0 look like it did in the massive leak from a few weeks ago? Maybe so, but things remain subject to change.

However, one new leak suggests that at least the so-called Live Activities UI component will look as good as it did in the original massive leak.

The two screenshots below seemingly confirm the modern look of the Live Activities UI, complete with beautiful blur and gradient engines. The images reportedly originate from Ice Universe on Weibo (via @TechKhaled_).

What you see above is a pill-shaped lock screen notification that changes dynamically based on what you're doing with your device. It can show notifications from different apps. In these two screenshots, the notification pertains to the Voice Recorder and Clock apps.

Samsung probably won't call this UI element “Live Activities,” as iOS has taken that name, but as far as looks go, the design in these leaked screenshots might be final.

The Korean tech giant already said at SDC24 that one of the three main pillars of One UI 7.0 is a new blur engine through which Samsung aims to get a positive emotional response from users whenever they interact with it, and what we see in these screenshots fits the bill.

The other two design pillars aim for “purposeful simplicity” across the UI and a “new signature impression.”

Everyone's expectations are high, as One UI 7.0 has become one of the most highly anticipated Samsung updates in years. A beta version could roll out by the end of 2024, and the Galaxy S25 series is expected to ship with the new firmware out of the box.
