Samsung has opened Android 17-based One UI 9 beta testing for older foldables and mid-range devices. Galaxy Z Fold 6, Z Flip 6, and Galaxy A57 owners in select regions can now test the latest platform update before official rollout.
The beta program allows users to experience new features and improvements ahead of the stable release. One UI 9 brings enhanced AI capabilities, improved performance, and refined user interface elements designed for better productivity on foldable and standard displays.
For Indian buyers, this is significant news as Samsung has a strong presence in the Indian smartphone market. Early beta access to these devices means Indian users can expect the stable One UI 9 update relatively soon after the beta phase concludes. This demonstrates Samsung’s commitment to timely software support for popular devices in the Indian market, benefiting millions of Galaxy smartphone users across the country.
