Samsung appears to be closer than ever to releasing the stable One UI 8 update for the Galaxy S25 series. The latest firmware available on Samsung’s servers no longer carries the beta tag, suggesting a release candidate version is ready.
The newest build for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, identified by the build number BYFB, indicates a non-beta release — beta versions usually have a “Z” in this spot. While Samsung hasn’t confirmed an official rollout yet, this change hints that the software is stable enough for a wide release.
Industry insiders speculate Samsung might align the One UI 8 launch with the unveiling of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7. Given that One UI 8 focuses on refinements rather than major new features, this timeline seems achievable. Public beta versions have already been running smoothly.
What’s New in the Stable One UI 8 Build?
Testing the update on a Galaxy S25 Ultra reveals no drastic new features, but some announced enhancements are now functional. These include a dynamic lock screen clock that adjusts its style based on your wallpaper, wallpaper suggestions drawn from your gallery images, and live captions during phone calls.
Stay tuned for more updates as we monitor the official release progress.
