A recent leak has given us a first look at what to expect from Samsung‘s upcoming One UI 8.5 software update, and it’s packed with new AI-powered features. Samsung has been integrating AI into its devices for some time. This upcoming new version of its mobile operating system appears to follow the same path, but it takes things to the next level. The update seems focused on making everyday tasks simpler and more efficient, all powered by artificial intelligence.
Samsung’s One UI 8.5 will focus on making daily tasks easier with AI
Among the new One UI 8.5 AI features revealed is Touch Assistant. This one aims to improve your reading experience by processing text that’s on your screen. There’s also a new Smart Clipboard that can do a lot more than just copy and paste; it can automatically suggest actions like correcting, summarizing, or translating text with a single tap. For social media users, Social Composer promises to auto-generate posts and reviews, making it easier than ever to share your thoughts online. Finally, Meeting Assist is a powerful new tool that provides real-time translation for meetings and presentations. This feature could be a huge help for business professionals (spotted by NirmalSri).
A previous leak also hinted at some new design elements in One UI 8.5. The new look reportedly includes floating buttons with transparent backgrounds. This style reminds some of the “Liquid Glass” design language seen in iOS. However, Samsung appears to be applying its own unique “frosted glass” UI look to these elements. This creates a sleek and modern appearance.
While these features are already generating excitement, the real question is when we’ll be able to see them on our devices. Samsung is expected to debut One UI 8.5 with its Galaxy S26 series during the first quarter of 2026. From there, we will have to wait for the firm’s release schedule for phones and tablets. As usual, the flagship devices will be the first to receive the OTA.
In related news, recent findings confirmed that One UI 9.0 will be the next major update after 8.5. This news suggests that Samsung is already looking ahead, with One UI 9.0 expected to be based on Android 17.
