SAMSUNG recently released the second One UI 9 Beta system update based on Android 17 for the previous generation folding flagship Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7. This upgrade has attracted much attention. The manufacturer has officially devolved many top-level AI functions exclusive to the latest Galaxy S26 and Z Fold 8. At the same time, it has focused on fixing the system bugs of the first Beta version, allowing the old machines to seamlessly connect to the latest generation of smart ecology.
Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 In this One UI 9 Beta 2 update, the manufacturer has made key corrections to the screen experience, completely solving a serious bug that caused some Z Fold 7 users to have the home screen fail to wake up and light up smoothly when unfolding the body. In addition, the new system has also been optimized for the UI layout of large screens, allowing users to have a smoother and more seamless visual and operational experience when switching between internal and external screens.
In terms of hardware, the two phones have four new Galaxy AI functions this time. The first is Call Brief, which can instantly display the other party’s calendar or conversation summary on the call screen; Custom Cards allows users to customize information cards such as weather and health in the Now Brief interface; Now Nudge will analyze the current screen and proactively recommend next steps (such as directly opening the calendar); as for My FanCam, it can also use AI to automatically track specific people in the video and re-crop it. In addition, the update also fixes issues such as Wi-Fi disconnection, 15x video zoom failure, game controller connection failure, and Contacts crash, and the overall system stability has been upgraded.
Currently, One UI 9 Beta 2 has been first launched to Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 users in South Korea, and is expected to be expanded to markets such as the United States, United Kingdom, and India later. (Source: androidauthority)
