After releasing a couple of beta builds and testing it for almost a month, Samsung has <a href=\"https:\/\/r1.community.samsung.com\/t5\/%EA%B0%A4%EB%9F%AD%EC%8B%9C-s\/s23-one-ui-8-5-%EB%B2%A0%ED%83%80-%EC%82%AC%EC%9A%A9%EC%9E%90-%EC%A0%95%EC%8B%9D%EC%97%85%EB%8D%B0%EC%9D%B4%ED%8A%B8\/td-p\/38051148\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">now officially started rolling out the stable version<\/a> of the new software.\n<\/p>\n<p>As expected, the update is live in South Korea, which is usually the first market to receive Samsung\u2019s major software releases. The update carries the firmware version S91xNKSU7FZDT, with beta users receiving the update before those who are still on One UI 8.0. A rollout in other markets should begin in the next week or so.\n<\/p>\n<p>Those who want to install the update as soon as it becomes available can manually check for it by going to Settings &gt; Software update &gt; Download and install. That said, a much easier option is to follow our channel on <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/SamMobileNews\" rel=\"nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaVf5rAKLaHecomgK30j\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">WhatsApp<\/a>, where we\u2019ll let you know the moment Samsung expands the One UI 8.5 rollout for the Galaxy S23 lineup to additional countries.\n<\/p>\n<p>One UI 8.5 not only includes all the enhancements that come with Android 16 QPR2, but also introduces a refreshed design language across the system. In our opinion, the updated interface feels more polished, modern, and visually appealing. Samsung has also improved customization options, while redesigning many stock apps so they better align with the new look and feel of the software.
