Samsung has set the stage for its highly anticipated One UI 7, based on Android 15, and fans are buzzing with excitement. Last week, the tech giant disclosed when users can expect to test the beta version. Now, we may have our first glimpse of what this new skin will look like on the Galaxy S25 Ultra.

The development of One UI 7 has been anything but smooth. It faced significant delays, leading to speculation about Samsung's challenges in crafting this updated interface. Yet, regular tipster, Ice Universe, has shared a tantalizing image on X that claims to showcase One UI 7 as it would appear on the Galaxy S25 Ultra. While the authenticity of such early images often hinges on CAD drawings and mock-ups, Ice Universe has a proven track record of reliability when it comes to Samsung leaks.

Expect a full launch of One UI 7 alongside the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, slated for release in January of next year. However, due to the previous delays in beta releases, there is growing uncertainty about whether the operating system will be seamlessly integrated with the new flagship devices right out of the box.

The image shared by Ice Universe highlights the revamped control center of the Galaxy S25 Ultra, which has ignited discussions about design influences. Samsung has long been accused of borrowing concepts from Apple, and this latest control panel design might reinforce that notion.

The new control center features a split notification panel, leaving behind some of the previous designs. While the current One UI 6.1 includes rounded icons and panels, One UI 7 is expected to enhance these designs further, incorporating even more circular elements. The upcoming interface promises a more transparent and uniformly sized look, aiming for a clean and modern aesthetic.

In addition to potential visual changes in the control center, early leaks suggest that One UI 7 will introduce updates to various elements across the app drawer, home screen, and settings. Notably, widgets such as the battery indicator and camera app controls are also set to receive a makeover.

The beta version of One UI 7 is anticipated to be rolled out before the end of this year, giving users a taste of the new features ahead of its official launch.

Stay tuned for more updates and perhaps an official announcement as we draw closer to the release date!
