Stable One UI 4 (Android 12) 'likely' to arrive before the end of the year

The One UI 4 rollout could follow last year's schedule.

What you need to know

Samsung reportedly expects a stable One UI 4 to arrive before the end of the year.
A community moderator said to expect a rollout by December "at the latest."
This would fall in line with last year's One UI 3 update.

With Android 12 nearing its official release, Samsung users are undoubtedly wondering when they can expect One UI 4 to arrive on their phones. Thanks to a recent forum post, we may have an idea of when that will be.

TizenHelp spotted a forum post where a moderator provides some insight about the stable One UI 4 rollout. In response to users inquiring about the release, the moderator indicates that the update is still in development, making it hard to discern precisely when users should expect it. However, they say a rollout before the end of the year is quite possible.

Currently, Galaxy S21 is also developing the Android 12 (One UI 4) version and the situation is changing, so it is difficult to give a clear answer.

We are actively collaborating with KT operators, and it is likely to be possible by December at the latest.

Of course, take with a grain of salt until an official announcement from Samsung, but a December launch isn't outside the realm of possibility. One UI 3 started rolling out to international devices in December 2020, with the update hitting some of Samsung's best Android phones in the U.S. the following month. We've reached out to Samsung to get more details and will update you if we hear back.

The moderator says that Samsung is coordinating with South Korean operators, so we can likely expect the rollout on S21 models there before reaching select devices in other regions in the following months.

Samsung is already well into the One UI 4 beta program, which is currently available for Galaxy S21 owners. The second beta brings Material You-like dynamic colors, not unlike what will appear on Pixel devices once it rolls out. We may also hear more about One UI 4 at Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Unpacked Part 2 next week.

If you're interested in trying out the beta, you can grab your S21 and enroll using the Samsung Members app if you're in a supported country.

Pretty and powerful

The Galaxy S21 is one of the best phones you can buy, thanks to its impressive display, cameras, and support for the carrier's strong 5G network. And with the S21, you'll be among the first to try the new One UI 4 based on Android 12.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
