Samsung Galaxy S25 Beta 2 Is Live Right Now

Samsung tracker Tarun Vats posted on X that One UI 9 Beta 2 for the Galaxy S25 series is rolling out in the U.K., U.S. and South Korea.

Beta 2 brings Now Nudge, My FanCam, Custom cards in Now Brief and Call Brief to the Galaxy S25 lineup. These are the same features that launched on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 in July, then came to the S26 series via Beta 7 last week .

If you own a Galaxy S25, S25+ or S25 Ultra and are enrolled in the One UI Beta Program ( watch how to do that here ), open the Samsung Members app and check for the update now.

Samsung is also planning Beta 2 for the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy S25 FE , with Vats reporting expected builds are ready.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Stable Release Is Imminent

The biggest news for S26 owners is a new stable build has again been spotted. Vats confirmed build BZI6 for the Galaxy S26 series, which is the third separate stable build that has been picked up by update trackers recently. It looks like the stable One UI 9 release for the Galaxy S26 series could be days away.

Samsung Customer Support has repeatedly confirmed the stable update is coming soon, and the cadence of new stable builds appearing on Samsung’s servers strongly suggests the company is running final validation checks before pushing the OTA to millions of devices.

Update 09/11: Samsung Releases More AI Features To Older Galaxy Phones

Update : The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 received Beta 2, which brings the same Z Fold 8 features that landed on the Galaxy S26 and S25 earlier this month, including Now Nudge, My FanCam, Custom cards in Now Brief and Call Brief. If you own either of last year’s foldables and are enrolled in the beta, these features are available now.

Samsung has also expanded the beta programme to the Galaxy A35 in South Korea. This is another unexpected mid-range addition following the A36, A56 and A57 earlier this month. The A-series rollout is moving faster than anyone anticipated.

The stable release picture is in flux. It’s not clear when exactly the One UI 9 stable build will be released for select older Galaxy phones, but Tarun Vats has now spotted stable builds for four different Samsung device families.

The Galaxy S25’s newest build, DZI8, was spotted this week, up from DZI6. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S24 now has a new stable build (EZIA).

That means stable builds have been spotted by Vats for the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S24 handsets, with the Fold 7 series and Galaxy A57 / A37 are expected soon. The S26 remains the most likely first to receive the official stable OTA, but check owners of other recent flagships should check for updates regularly.

Stable Builds Spotted Across The Entire Samsung Galaxy Lineup

Today’s update from Vats also includes a snapshot of the latest stable builds across Samsung’s flagship lineup, giving the clearest picture yet of where each device sits in the rollout queue.

The Galaxy S25 has a stable build at DZI6. The Galaxy S25 FE is at CZI5. The Galaxy S24 is at EZI4. The Galaxy S23 is at GZI5. These builds being present on Samsung’s servers doesn’t mean they’re shipping today, but it confirms Samsung is actively preparing stable releases for all four device families simultaneously.

This is a big release because it includes four generations of Galaxy S phones, plus the Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, all moving toward stable One UI 9 within weeks of each other.

Samsung has also opened the One UI 9 beta program for the Galaxy A55, confirming the update is heading to mid-range devices too.
