One UI 7 supports new camera continuity feature between your Galaxy phone and Galaxy Book
One UI 7 brings several new features for multitasking that can deepen integration between Galaxy phones and Galaxy Book laptops, including Camera Share and Storage Share. In addition to these, the Samsung One UI 7 update introduces a new feature called Camera Continuity, which will let you seamlessly paste photos from your phone to Samsung Notes on your PC.
One UI 7 Camera Continuity Feature
One UI 7 introduces camera continuity that will make it easier to switch between your Galaxy phone, tablet, and PC. This feature allows users to take pictures and scan documents or handwriting on their phone or tablet, then continue working on them on other devices such as a tablet or computer. However, it will work with the Samsung Notes and Samsung Internet apps.
For this feature to work, you need to be signed into the same Samsung account, connected to the same Wi-Fi network, and within Bluetooth range, on your Galaxy Book laptop and Galaxy smartphone.
The Camera Continuity feature is now available with the One UI 7 beta 2 update but isn’t fully live yet. However, It is currently only spotted by Mishaal Rahman on Galaxy S24 smartphones but, the feature doesn’t appear to be active on all Galaxy S24 devices running One UI 7 beta and Galaxy Book laptops. So, the Korean tech giant might be working on it and could release the feature in the upcoming beta versions of One UI 7.
You can find this feature under the “ Continue on other devices” menu in the One UI 7 alongside the Continue apps, Copy and paste, and W-Fi networks.
- Continue apps: To continue using the app on other devices
- Copy and paste: This feature allows you to copy text, images, or files on your Galaxy phone and instantly continue working on them on other devices like a Galaxy Book PC or Galaxy tablet.
- W-Fi networks: It will now also sync your saved Wi-Fi networks between devices.
These features make the Samsung ecosystem even more attractive for those who want seamless cross-device integratio

After the Galaxy S24 series, Samsung has today resumed the rollout of One UI 7 based on the Android 15 update for the Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Z Fold 6, and Galaxy Z Fold 6 SE. It is worth noting that the Korean tech giant had halted the rollout a few days ago due to a serious bug discovered in the initial update, so it is now rolling out a new firmware that will fix this issue.
Samsung has started rolling out the new One UI 7 update for the Galaxy Z Flip 6, Z Fold 6, and Fold 6 SE. Initially available in South Korea, the new One UI 7 build will go live in more markets soon. This build is a more refined build than the initial build and includes fixes for system improvements.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, Z Fold 6, and Fold 6 SE users can recognize it by the build number ending with BYD9.
Your Galaxy foldable device might have also received the new build. But you can check for the update manually in Settings > Software update. Click on Download and install so that your phone can receive the new OTA.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 has now appeared on Geekbench, revealing that the company is carrying out pre-launch tests and preparations for its new device. The latest listing also solves the chipset mystery that has been in rumours for a long time.
According to the Geekbench 6.4 listing, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 US variant with model number SM-F966U achieved 3022 points on single-core and 9307 points on multi-core tests.
The US variant of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has appeared on Geekbench with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. Also, the phone is expected to run on Android 16-based One UI 8 operating system
Being a flagship folding handset, all these things sound quite good. Nevertheless, the actual performance will only be known once the device is officially launched in the consumer market. Inputs reveal that the chipset is clocked at 3.53 GHz base frequency.
Apart from this, the Korean tech giant can launch the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 around July this year. Also, an affordable flip model can also be introduced along with both the devices.
