By releasing these features for a series Galaxy S25 (and we hope that in the future also for models Galaxy S24) Samsung is significantly reducing the technology gap between the current and last generation. Final stable version One UI 8.5 for users Galaxy S25 is expected at the turn of April and May, with the tenth beta will serve as the last step before a sharp start.
I am sincerely glad that Samsung finally does not forget the owners of last year's models, and finally gives them the best that was introduced in February for the series. Galaxy S26. Personally, what struck me most was that AI features like Advanced Audio Eraser are no longer just an isolated toy in the gallery, but are starting to work across the entire system and in third-party applications. This is exactly the direction where artificial intelligence stops being just a marketing lure and becomes a truly useful tool for everyday use.
