Although Samsung has not yet deployed a 7.0 user interface to all of its devices, it has already started testing an 8.0 user interface, and we have recently got its hands on an 8.0 user interface (based on Android 16) on the Galaxy Z Flip 6. We reported changes and improvements in the coming version of an IU. One of the biggest changes we have presented in our report will not be exclusive to Samsung.
A quick user user interface is identical to the Android 16 fast sharing action
The quick user interface received a major overhaul with an IU 8.0. It has separate tabs for the reception and sending functions. The user interface is more like a full-fledged application rather than a pop-up. And it seems that the user interface will not be exclusive to Samsung devices, because Stock Android 16 seems to have the same quick user interface. This user interface was revealed by a report Android authority.
As you can see in the screenshots below, the quick sharing user interface in Android 16 and One UI 8.0 have tabs and send tabs.
The two interfaces also display the details of shared files and a QR code system to share files. Any Android smartphone or tablet user can simply scan the QR code provided to receive files via direct connection.
This decision seems to be logical because Google merged the sharing function near Android in the rapid part of Samsung last year and used the fast brand. He also introduced internet sharing after Samsung introduced it into a single user interface.
Since these are the first days of testing an 8.0 user interface, Samsung may not yet have introduced a lot of features, and we can see more features when the company launches the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the Galaxy Z Fold 7 in the second half of this year with Android 16 and one UI 8.0 on board.
You can watch our practical video UI 8.0 below.
Given that a user interface 7.0 has been delayed by more than four months compared to the usual Samsung calendar for the release of a new major version of a user interface, the company tries to provide a user interface 8.0 earlier. And the company may not introduce many user interface changes with it because it has introduced a major user interface design renovation with a 7.0 user interface this year.
