Samsung's latest upgrade, One UI 3, is here to transform your mobile experience. This exciting new design brings enhanced everyday features and deep customization options, all while providing a seamless gateway to innovative experiences for years to come.
With the official launch of One UI 3, Samsung has made good on its promise to deliver the latest OS innovation to consumers, as part of their pledge to support three generations of operating system upgrades for millions of devices. This update will be available with Android 11 OS and is set to roll out today on Galaxy S20 series devices (Galaxy S20, S20+, and S20 Ultra) in Korea, the US, and most markets in Europe. The upgrade will gradually become available on more devices, including the Galaxy Note20, Z Fold2, Z Flip, Note10, Fold, and S10 series, in the coming weeks.
One UI 3 represents a significant step forward in Samsung's commitment to delivering exceptional mobile experiences for its users. "The launch of One UI 3 is just the beginning of our commitment to offering Galaxy consumers the best mobile experiences possible by giving them access to the latest OS innovation, as soon as it's available," said Dr. TM Roh, President and Head of Mobile Communications Business, Samsung Electronics.
A New Era in Design
One UI 3 brings a refined design that elevates the overall aesthetic experience. The interface has been visually enhanced to highlight important information, with new visual effects like the Dim/Blur effect for notifications helping you quickly focus on what matters most. Redesigned widgets keep your Home screen looking organized, clean, and stylish.
But it's not just about looks – One UI 3 also feels different. Smoother motion effects and animation, combined with natural haptic feedback, make navigating and using your phone a joy. The Lock screen fade-out looks cleaner, toggles slide more smoothly under your fingers, and button presses feel more realistic. Every screen and every touch has been refined to provide an unparalleled app user experience.
Enhanced Everyday Features
One UI 3 is centered on providing everyday simplicity. Redesigned Lock screen widgets help you control your music and see important information like calendar events and routines without having to unlock your device. Keeping track of messages and conversations is more intuitive, with messaging app notifications grouped front and center so you can quickly read and respond to your messages.
The edge-to-edge full-screen video call layout creates a new communication experience that brings you closer to the people who matter most. With One UI 3, the camera on your device is even more powerful. Improved AI-based zoom on photos, and improved autofocus and auto-exposure help capture a great shot. Additionally, the organization categories in Gallery help you quickly find photos.
Customization at Its Finest
One UI 3 offers extended customization options to let you tailor your phone experience to your preferences. Whether you're constantly turning on Dark mode or sharing your Mobile Hotspot, you can now do so with a simple swipe and tap using new ways to customize your Quick Panel. You can also share images, videos, or documents more easily than ever before.
With the ability to customize your share sheet, you can "pin" your most-commonly used sharing destinations, whether it be a contact, messaging app, or email. On top of that, One UI lets you maintain different profiles for your work and personal life so you can worry less about sending something to the wrong person.
Digital Wellbeing
One UI 3 has been built with digital wellbeing in mind. New applications help you identify and improve your digital habits. Quickly see usage information that shows your weekly changes in screen time or check your usage while driving to help you make informed decisions about how and when you use your Galaxy devices.
As Samsung continues to evolve the Galaxy experience, One UI will receive even more updates alongside new flagship launches in early 2021. For more information about One UI, please visit www.samsung.com/one-ui.
