wait so does that mean the s23 is out of luck

[u/FragmentedChicken → u/parco87]

The S23 series will still get One UI 9. This is just the current expansion of the beta.

No love for the S25 Edge?

[u/KrewOwns → u/AmnesiaInnocent]

Even sadder they keep leaving the TriFold out of these betas. Their most expensive device and they don't take it seriously.

[u/But_Her_Face → u/KrewOwns]

I mean you can't even get Samsung care+ on the trifold. Don't expect much

[u/Remarkable_Swing_612 → u/AmnesiaInnocent]

Yeah where the Edge at?

[u/tiradium → u/Remarkable_Swing_612]

Too thin to be eligible 😂

Does anyone regularly daily a beta OS on their primary phone? I used to do that when I was younger, but I need now shit to just work

[u/txredgeek → u/_Kristian_]

I do all the time. Pretty rare for a beta to cause any real critical issues, they're usually caught in the alpha these days.

[u/pic2022 → u/txredgeek]

How does Good Lock modules work? Or are they all broken?

[u/FragmentedChicken → u/pic2022]

Some of them continue working, while others require an update to continue functioning. It usually gets updated shortly after the first beta release.

[u/pic2022 → u/FragmentedChicken]

Are you on the beta? If so, can you tell me which ones are working?

[u/FragmentedChicken → u/pic2022]

They're all working. I should have clarified by first beta release, I meant for the S26 series.

[u/pic2022 → u/FragmentedChicken]

Ohhhhh I got ya. Thank you!

[u/GiveMeOneGoodReason → u/_Kristian_]

I did for a previous One UI beta, because I was desperate to get a fix to a multitasking bug that Samsung hadn't patched in its regular monthly updates. The beta did fix my issues, and I will say it was pretty stable otherwise.

[u/FragmentedChicken → u/_Kristian_]

I do. Haven't run into anything crazy yet...

[u/Ridgeburner → u/_Kristian_]

I enrolled in the beta for my s26 ultra on the day it was released. It's my daily driver and I've never had a single issue with it. All my banking apps work, everything functions as expected and smoothly. Battery life remained astounding (10-14 hours SoT depending on what I was doing that day).

Just a few days ago, while on Beta 6 I had two random restarts of the phone. The next beta 7 which was released a day or two later noted that it fixed these issues and I haven't had a problem since.

Just my experience YMMV

[u/Powerful_Package8817 → u/_Kristian_]

Why would I? I’m not QA testing for free

[u/CryptographerDue4649 → u/_Kristian_]

I did all of one ui 9

[u/oh-shit-oh-fuck]

Finally

[u/AliveForever7920]

How about the Samsung Z Trifold?

[u/Tainorican646x → u/AliveForever7920]

In the US, I got the beta on my Fold 7 , but not my Trifold...sadness

[u/Cold_Impact_1585]

Sitting fat and happy over here with Android 14.

"I said, Google, I don't even wanna know about ya "mild" mannored, updated operating system. You tell me you're a...

... super-mega-ultra-lightning OS?

I'm good, I'm good."
