Samsung has begun to roll out the One UI 9 Watch beta update for its Galaxy Watch7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra smartwatches. This follows the recent update for the Galaxy Watch8 and Watch8 Classic, which was released just last week.
New Features and Improvements
The One UI 9 Watch beta introduces a refreshed user interface along with new widgets, enhancing the overall experience for users. Among the notable additions are the Antioxidant Index and Vascular Load features, which provide users with valuable health insights. In the United States, the Blood Pressure Trend feature has replaced these new additions.
Update Details
This beta update is substantial, with a size of approximately 1.9GB. It comes with a firmware version that ends in ZZI1 and includes the security patch for September 2026. Currently, the update is rolling out in the US and South Korea, allowing users in these regions to experience the latest enhancements.
How to Enroll in the Beta Program
If you are a Galaxy Watch7 or Galaxy Watch Ultra user residing in the US or South Korea and wish to participate in the One UI 9 Watch beta program, you will need to enroll via the Samsung Members app. This is a great opportunity for users to test new features before they are officially available.
Expansion of One UI 9
In addition to the smartwatch updates, Samsung is also expanding the rollout of the Android 17-based One UI 9 beta update to ten more smartphone models. This includes popular devices such as the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy Z Fold7, and Galaxy A57, among others. This comprehensive update reflects Samsung's commitment to enhancing user experience across its product lineup.
With these updates, Samsung continues to innovate and improve its wearable technology, making it more user-friendly and feature-rich. Users can look forward to a refined experience with the new One UI 9.
