Vats noted that One UI 8.5 beta builds with identifiers F956BXXU3ZZCB and F741BXXU3ZZCB have been spotted on the test servers. These build numbers align with the identifiers for the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Fold 6, suggesting the beta program could soon be expanded to include these devices.
There’s no word on when the update might arrive, but Vats speculates it could come before the end of this month. We hope they’re correct on this, but we’d know for sure only when Samsung officially communicates on the rollout.
If you own the Galaxy Z Fold 6 or Flip 6, you can look out for the One UI 8.5 beta update in the Samsung Members app. On eligible devices, you might find the option to request the beta right on top of one of the banners or at the bottom of the app’s homescreen inside the dedicated card for beta updates. Just make sure to keep checking, as Samsung offers only a limited number of slots for testers.
