With Android 15 adoption, both smartphone makers offer a fresh new look, embrace large toggles, and make it more comfortable for users to access UI elements with one hand.

For this comparison, we’ll go via the user interface and the feature that comes into both of the quick settings panels.
Let’s start with One UI 7, Quick Panel is divided into four different sections by default. The first row has large Wi-Fi and Bluetooth icons. After this, you get a large expandable section that brings all the useful icons in a 2×4 layout up to 18.
The third section brings two sliders, a brightness slider with a dark mode toggle, as well as a volume slider with a sound settings toggle. The last and fourth row matches the first row in terms of size and layout but contains SmartThings and Smart View icons.
Also, if music is played on the smartphone, the media player will appear above the last section.

OxygenOS 15 has its own charm and OnePlus has brought a new user interface to this software so that it looks attractive with every launch. Speaking of which, the Quick Panel of the OxygenOS 15 is divided into also four sections.
The Bluetooth and Wi-Fi toggles persist at the top of the screen like HyperOS and One UI 7 and right below that, there are 2×2 media player, a 1×2 brightness slider with an Auto brightness toggle, as well as a volume slider with a sound settings toggle.
The last section brings a large expandable section that brings all the useful icons in a 4×4 layout.
Additionally, One UI 7 brings an Edit or Pencil button on the top right along with the Power and Settings icon, while OxygenOS 15 brings an Edit button to the bottom left.

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.
