Samsung has published a teaser image for the Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event to be held in San Jose, California, USA. This image shows the corners of four phones. At first, we thought they could be four different phones, and the fourth device could be the Galaxy S25 Slim, which has been rumored several times in the last few months. Now, a a leaked promo image shows the four models of the Samsung Galaxy S25 series including the fourth show their front side, but it does not include the Galaxy S25 Slim.

Insider Evan Blass has revealed a promotional image of all three models of the Galaxy S25 series, revealing four devices, three of which show their rear panels, while the fourth shows their front. Previously, Samsung fans thought this front-facing device could be the Galaxy S25 Slim, but that’s not the case, as we discussed here.

If you look closely at the Samsung Galaxy S25 leaked promo front side image, an S Pen slot can be seen at the bottom left of the device, indicating that this may not be the Slim variant. The S Pen slot is a feature primarily found in the Samsung Galaxy S Ultra, not the other including Galaxy S Slim.

Apart from the S Pen slot, at the bottom, the S25 Ultra has a SIM card tray, a mic hole, a USB-C port, and a single slit speaker opening, similar to the Galaxy S24 Ultra. In addition, this image also shows the back design of the Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. It gives us a look at the camera modules and overall back design of these models, as well as the Ultra with S pen.

This famous leaker raised an interesting point about the Galaxy S25 Slim in his recent X post yesterday. He reminded Samsung fans that the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition was also rumored to be named Z Fold 6 Slim, but that never happened. Why would it be different for the so-called Galaxy S25 Slim?

The Galaxy S25 Slim is rumored to have an ultra-thin design, measuring 6.4mm. It is expected to sport a 6.7-inch QHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2x screen, Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, 12GB RAM, 200MP primary rear camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 50MP telephoto camera with 3.5x optical zoom, and 4,700-5,000mAh battery.

In Korea, Samsung has kicked off the Android 15-based One UI 7 update for the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Tab S10, Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Z Fold5, and Galaxy Z Flip5. The update follows the One UI 7 deployment for Galaxy S24 series and Galaxy Z Fold5, as well as Galaxy Z Flip5 users in the same region, which began earlier.

These users are among the first to experience this update, which promises a smoother, more intuitive experience with a refined user interface, improved performance, enhanced privacy controls, and new customization options that align with Samsung’s vision for a seamless and intuitive user experience.

One UI 7 comes with a brand new look for your Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Tab S10, Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Z Fold5, and Galaxy Z Flip5, including a sleeker user interface, smoother animations for maximum interactions, and an improved flow across the system.

Over the next few days and weeks, the Korean tech giant will open up the One UI 7 distribution to older flagships like the Galaxy S22 and S21 series, Galaxy Z Flip 4/3, and Z Fold 4/3.

To note, the company has started the US rollout for select devices, including the S24 series, Z Fold6, and Z Flip6 from April 10, but the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy S24 FE, Tab S10, Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Z Fold5, and Galaxy Z Flip5 and others are still pending. The company’s phased approach prioritises flagships, with mid-range devices like the Galaxy A-series scheduled for June.

Your device should send a notification for a software upgrade. In the meantime, you can manually get the latest software from Samsung’s servers by navigating through Settings > Software update > Download and install.

Samsung users can try out One UI 7 on the Galaxy S22 Plus virtually. The update’s rollout hasn’t yet begun, but the company is moving towards kicking off a public rollout next month. Samsung’s latest RTL refresh brings One UI 7 to the Galaxy S22 series, but users may be disappointed as they miss out on 5 major AI features with One UI 7.

One UI 7 is available on the Galaxy S25 series, Galaxy S24 series, the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Z Flip 6. Notably, the latest flagships exclusively run the Stable One UI 7, last year’s flagships have Beta access to the software, and the Galaxy S22+ is eligible for RTL.

The RTL listing was recently updated as a video spread on Reddit and X that shows One UI 7 running on a Galaxy S22+ using Samsung’s Remote Test Lab.

The video reveals that the update for the S22 series will not include many of the cutting-edge AI features found in Samsung’s latest Galaxy S25 series.

Samsung, however, is yet to complete One UI 7 for its Galaxy devices, but will soon roll out the stable One UI 7 and launch an independent One UI beta program.

Last week, it was revealed that the company is already working on Android 16’s adaptation and testing the alleged One UI 8 on the Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Z Flip 6 smartphones.

Android continues to deliver great updates and new features throughout the year, while feedback from the beta community plays a vital role in constantly improving Android. The Android 16 developer site has a lot more information about the beta, including downloads and a release timeline for Pixel.
