Samsung Galaxy S25 Receives Sixth One UI 8 Beta with September Security Patch and New Features
Samsung has rolled out the sixth beta of One UI 8 for the Galaxy S25 series, continuing its ongoing Android 16 beta program. The latest build, ending with “ZYHB,” is now available in Germany, the UK, India, and South Korea, and includes the September 2025 security patch. This update could be a sign that the stable One UI 8 release is imminent, likely scheduled for early to mid-September.
Key Fixes and Improvements in One UI 8 Beta 6
In this release, Samsung has addressed several bugs to enhance user experience:
- Resolved the issue where only icons appeared on the lock screen upon receiving notifications.
- Fixed logo cutting problems in certain apps.
- Restored keyboard recommendations after reboot.
- Corrected font application errors after font changes.
- Eliminated character truncation in widgets.
- Fixed instances of the lock screen appearing over active apps.
- Corrected incorrect time display on the clock widget.
Additionally, this beta update reportedly introduces the Call Captions feature, which provides live captions of the other person’s voice during phone calls to assist users in noisy environments or those with hearing difficulties.
What to Expect Next?
This latest beta update is likely the final one before Samsung releases the stable One UI 8 update for the Galaxy S25 series. The company’s timeline suggests the official launch could happen in the first or second week of September 2025, making this the culmination of months of beta testing. Samsung also plans to extend the One UI 8 beta program to other devices like the Galaxy S24 series and mid-range models later this year.
