Owners of midrange and flagship Galaxy phones may need to wait until April for One UI 7, while the Galaxy A06 5G will ship with the software soon. If typical bug-squashing is responsible, Samsung is right to delay the UI release until it's perfect.

The budget Galaxy F06 5G will ship with One UI 7, while most of Samsung's lineup remains without any information about the Android 15 update.

Whether you’re looking for top performance or a budget-friendly device, the best Samsung phones are packed with impressive AI. After testing, here are my top picks.

When you trade in your old phone with T-Mobile, you'll get it for free. New and existing customers can swap an old device in any condition for a new Galaxy S25+ for free, or use the credit for up to $1,000 off other models like the top-of-the-line Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra (delivered as 24 monthly credits on your bill).

Samsung is in the midst of rolling out its February 2025 update to Galaxy smartphones and tablets, but it's not One UI 7.

We’re now keeping our phones longer between upgrades, which is why the guaranteed minimum support periods are extending across the board. It is clear that this update decision from Samsung will affect millions of users, and while three-monthly updates is better than no updates, it doesn’t help when there’s an urgent fix mid-cycle.

Samsung might not push the stable Android 15 update until April. It will release two more One UI 7 beta builds after the fourth beta. Galaxy S24 will supposedly get the S25's Audio Eraser feature with One UI 7.
