Samsung is expanding its One UI 9 beta program beyond the Galaxy S26 series. The company will start rolling out the beta to more Galaxy devices from September.
The expansion gives owners of several recent Samsung smartphones and foldables a chance to test the upcoming software before its wider release.
Importantly, India is among the selected markets for the beta program. Samsung will also offer the program in Korea, the UK and the US. However, the company notes that availability and timing may vary between markets.
Check If Your Samsung Phone Is Eligible
If you own one of Samsung’s recent Galaxy devices, you may be able to join the One UI 9 beta.
The eligible devices include:
- Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7
- Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7
- Samsung Galaxy S25
- Samsung Galaxy S25+
- Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra
- Samsung Galaxy S25 FE
Samsung initially expanded the One UI 9 beta program with the Galaxy S26 series in May. Now, the company is bringing the testing program to a wider range of Galaxy devices.
How to Join the One UI 9 Beta
Eligible Galaxy users can sign up for the beta through the Samsung Members app.
If your device qualifies and the program is available in your market, you should see an option to register for the beta. Samsung may limit availability based on market and rollout timing, so not every eligible phone will necessarily receive the beta at the same time.
Before installing beta software, users should also keep in mind that beta versions can contain bugs or unfinished features. Therefore, a secondary device may be a better choice for users who rely heavily on their phone every day.
One UI 9 Beta Expands in September
Samsung has not provided a single global rollout date for all eligible devices. Instead, the company says the expansion will begin in September.
The Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7 join the Galaxy S25 lineup as part of this expansion. The Galaxy S25 FE also gets access to the beta, giving more users a chance to experience Samsung’s upcoming software before the stable update arrives.
For Samsung users in India, the key takeaway is simple: check the Samsung Members app if you own one of the eligible Galaxy devices.
Samsung is expected to share more details as the One UI 9 beta expands. Until then, availability will depend on both the device and the user’s market.
