The renaissance of nuclear energy is underway. And the microreactors are preparing to give it a boost

by

The physicists and engineers involved in the development of fourth generation nuclear fission reactors They are working to propose new designs that conceptually may be very different from those of previous generations. Of course, the requirements that these new nuclear power plants must meet are clearly defined. The first of them consists of achieving the maximum possible sustainability, so that the fuel is used to the maximum to produce energy, the amount of radioactive waste resulting from the process is minimized and its management is as efficient as possible. The second requirement concerns the economic investment that must be made to start up and maintain the nuclear power plant, which must be as low as possible so that it can be compared to the expenditure required by other sources of energy, thus reducing the risk. financial. And the third and final requirement stipulates that safety and reliability must be high enough to minimize the probability of damage to the reactor core. Besides, if an accident occurred It should not be necessary to take emergency measures beyond the nuclear power plant facilities. Westinghouse and Radiant working on the world’s smallest reactors The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) published a very detailed report in September 2024 entitled “Energy, electricity and nuclear power estimates for the period up to 2050”. In it, it analyzes the short and medium-term future of nuclear energy and delves into its role as a means of generating electricity that can contribute to the achievement of global climate objectives. However, the most interesting thing is that this organization predicts that global nuclear power will increase by 2.5 by 2050. Microreactors use uranium-based isotropic tristructural particles as fuel Compact and modular nuclear reactors play a crucial role in achieving that vision, but microreactors will also likely play a very important role. As their name indicates, they are compact and modular nuclear reactors much smaller than conventional fission machines. As we can predict, they produce less energy than the latter, usually 50 megawatts or lessbut thanks to their size they can be installed in remote places where it is not possible to set up a traditional nuclear power plant. However, nuclear microreactors have more advantages. On the one hand, its installation is relatively simple and much faster than that of conventional reactors. In addition, they do not require large water cooling systems, they operate in an automated manner and their maintenance is simpler than that of a traditional nuclear plant. And, interestingly, the eVinci and Kaleidos microreactors being developed by the American companies Westinghouse and Radiant use uranium-based tristructural isotropic particles (TRISO) as fuel. The particles of this fuel are the size of a poppy seed and contain uranium, carbon and oxygen encapsulated in a carbon-ceramic shell that is capable of withstanding extreme temperatures. On paper this nuclear fuel is the most robust ever developed to date. An interesting note: Radiant uses helium as a coolant, while Westinghouse uses a passive heat duct system. These two companies have the financial support of the US Department of Energy (DOE) and plan to place their microreactors on the market in 2030 as long as, of course, they obtain a license from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).

without changes, Samsung assumes extra costs

At the beginning of the year, the possibility of the Korean company applying a significant increase in the price of the Galaxy S25 series. A small scare that in the end will come to nothing, since this game of bringing some prices or others to different regions, at least in Spain and Europe it will not affect the user who wants to purchase one of their mobile phones. These leaks were based on the increased manufacturing costs of the new Galaxy S25 series, so an increase in the series with the best specifications of the Korean company could be partly understood. It seems that Samsung’s proposal is to reduce the profit margin for each unit sold so that the new user of its Galaxy S25 does not assume them. Which means that Samsung is going to go behind its back the increase in the cost of production of its new mobile phones. A crucial moment for the manufacturer, since the new series will arrive with an important renewal in the hardware specifications as will happen in the software with One UI 7 and additions like the Now Bar on the lock screen. It is very clear that Samsung’s intentions are to bring the best possible Galaxy S25 into the hands of new owners without they have to scratch their pockets more than necessary, and it is practically nothing according to the prices that have been leaked both in Korea and in Europe. The possible prices of the three mobile phones that will be presented in two days have been leaked, since the Galaxy S25 Slim moves to the month of May. In Europe the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra can be purchased from 909, 1,159 and 1,459 euros respectively, according to 9to5Google from GizmoChina. Case with stand for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra The Free Android They go on par with the prices of the Galaxy S24 series which was launched in Spain just a year agoalthough with some change in one of the models. The Galaxy S24 was launched at 909 euros, while the Galaxy S24+ started at 1,159 euros and the S24 Ultra at 1,479 euros. It is unknown if the prices are from Germany or another country European, since they tend to fluctuate somewhat, although not much, so it fits perfectly and it can be said that Samsung leaves everything as it was for the next Galaxy S25 that will be presented this Wednesday at Galaxy Unpacked. In just over 48 hours the doubts will be cleared up. Evan Blass The Free Android A series that will not be missing anything and that will arrive again with AI as its flag and the great protagonist to achieve new goals in the user experience; which the Korean company announced a few days ago to anticipate the arrival of its trio of smartphones with One UI 7 as another of the big releases based on Android 15.

The code names of the four phones in the series are leaked

The Pixel 10 have been leaking some details to get closer to next summer in which its launch is expected, since last year Google brought forward the presentation date of the Pixel 9. An internal Google source has shared certain documents that confirm the Pixel 11 codenames which will be released next year. A leak that skips the next Google devices this year, since the first that would be presented is the Pixel 9a to replace the Pixel 8a last year launched in Spainand then the Pixel 10 series for its launch next summer as the station of choice for the technology giant. The internal source has given some documents to Android Authority and thus know the code names that are usually of unique animal species. For example, for the Pixel 11 the denominator theme is going to be the bear, and it is not at all something new for Google use certain names according to a theme; For older versions of Android it always used dessert names like KitKat (Android 4.4), Lollipop (Android 5.0) or Marshmallow (Android 6.0). Each of the mobile phones that make up the Pixel 11 series, and which is surprising for still being four models so that the folding mobile follow another of the protagonistshave their only name as one of the most dangerous subspecies and animals on the planet, the grizzly bear: Pixel 11: “cubs” or “4CS4”. Pixel 11 Pro: “grizzly” or “CGY4”. Pixel 11 Pro XL: “kodiak” or “PKK4”. Pixel 11 Pro Fold: “yogi” or “9y14”. Pixel 9 Pro Chema Flores The Free Android The references are more than clear and “cubs” are for bear cubs, while “grizzly” for one of the subspecies that lives in North America and “kodiak” for the Alaskan brown bear. The last one is “yogi”, inspired by the mythical cartoon character that for so many decades entertained so many generations. Android Authorirty has given more details and it is about the chip that each of the Pixel 11 series models will use: the G6 tensioner with the code name “malibu”. All four will launch sometime in the second half of 2026, so there is a lot of room to maneuver to continue with the same 2024 strategy or make some changes. The Pixel 10a would be another of the protagonists 2026 and its code name is also known: “stallion” or “STA5”. This mobile phone is in a very early stage of development and according to what it maintains Android Authority According to Google, it is considering bringing a completely customized Tensor G5 to the mid-range mobile or staying with the chip designed by Samsung, the Tensor G4. The reason for passing G5 tensioner It would be due to its larger size, since it measures much larger than itself. Apple A18 Prowhich would increase its production cost and possible price; leaked just in autumn 2024. The ideal would be a custom Tensor G6 chip, although it would be quite complicated since the Pixel 10a is launched before the Pixel 11. There is a lot left for these devices and the next one would be the Pixel 9a for the month of March, which will arrive to break some of the patterns that Google has been accustoming the user to, and be a different mobile phone in specifications compared to its older brothers; The previous Pixel 8a and 7a did not represent a big change in the experience according to their specifications.

Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos are candidates

2024 was a year especially good for big fortunes in which, except some exceptionsall increased their assets. This growth trend has changed the forecasts regarding the idea that, in the next ten years, one of these billionaires will become a billionaire, accumulating wealth in excess of a trillion dollars. According to a report that Oxfam Intemón has presented during the Davos Summit 2025the accumulation of wealth has become so extreme that the forecast now is that up to five billionaires will exceed that trillion-dollar ceiling in the next ten years. Fortunes accelerate. According to Oxfam Intermón, previous forecasts that a person could reach a fortune exceeding one trillion dollars (European trillion, not American), have become obsolete following the rapid growth rate recorded by large fortunes during 2024. The humanitarian organization highlights that, during the fiscal year 2024, large fortunes tripled the rate of increase in your assets with respect to 2023. According to data from Oxfam Intermón“in 2024, the number of billionaires was already 2,769, compared to 2,565 the previous year, and their combined wealth increased from 13 to 15 trillion dollars in just 12 months. This is the second largest increase in the combined wealth of billionaires in a single year, since records have been kept”. The year of AI and the space race. This accelerated growth of the largest fortunes is mainly due to two important factors: the rise in the development of AI and the beginning of private space race. In the heat of the development of AI, the fortunes of some of its protagonists have increased, such as meteoric rise of Jensen Huang to the top of the millionaire lists, of Larry Ellison or of Mark Zuckerberg. The space race has two proper names: Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. Both millionaires have placed their aerospace companies among the best valued, and the contracts with NASA They have provided them with a good financial cushion. The case of Bezos and Musk is especially notable because both millionaires “play both sides” because their companies They are also at the forefront of AI development. Trump’s victory has influenced. The Oxfam Intermón report noted that “this growing concentration of wealth is possible thanks to a monopolistic concentration of power, in which billionaires exercise more and more influence over industries and public opinion.” The victory of Donald Trump and the closing of the ranks of big technology companies supporting the new president has been another important factor in the increase in the forecast that up to five billionaires will exceed one trillion dollars in the next decade. The now president of the United States has demonstrated it in his first decreeslegislating for prioritize interests of these companies around the world and, therefore, boosting the fortunes of their founders and CEOs. Elon Musk was already a candidate. With a fortune of $432.6 billion, Elon Musk is currently the richest person in the world, according to the list of millionaires of Forbes. As such, he already appeared in all the pools as a candidate to be one of the first billionaires in history. The businessman of South African origin beat a double record at the end of 2024: he managed to surpass the threshold of $400 billion and did so by almost doubling his fortune in just two months. Added to these estimates is the foreseeable growth in the assets of Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Larry Ellison or Jensen Huang, before a deregulated scene in which the large corporations on which their fortunes are based will have fewer legal restrictions on expanding.

What data can Google and WhatsApp give about their users after a court order, as in the case of the attorney general?

by

The judicial case opened against Álvaro García Ortiz, attorney general of the State, continues to move forward to try to settle his responsibility in the leak to the media of Alberto Gómez Amador’s tax filepartner of Isabel Díaz Ayuso. After the procedures to track the prosecutor’s telephone numbers and requesting call information from telephone companiesnow Judge Ángel Hurtado will ask WhatsApp and Google to help recover messages of the applications installed on García Ortiz’s two cell phones and in his email account. At the request of the Central Operational Unit (UCO) of the Civil Guard, Judge Hurtado has ordered the issuance of a rogatory commission to the two technology companies so that they provide all the required data and know precisely if the prosecutor was involved in the leak. to the media about the emails between Gómez Amador’s lawyer and the Prosecutor’s Office. For this, requests WhatsApp for messages received and/or sent by the userchat backups and communication logs. Regarding Google, the judge of the Criminal Chamber of the Supreme Court requests the data stored in the services and products linked to the accountbackups of linked devices, third-party applications, chats and communication logs, with crucial data such as date, time, origin, destination or type of communication. State security forces have the power to ask companies for copies of information that is related to an ongoing investigation. However, “access to these companies that usually operate or have their data outside the European Union is very limited,” according to statements to EL ESPAÑOL – El Androide Libre de David del Olmoforensic computer expert specialized in mobile devices. Requests for rogatory commissions and judicial authorizations are usually slow, and according to the expert, “in many cases we will only obtain access data, but not the content of the messages, which is encrypted“. In that case it would be necessary to “perform a forensic analysis on the mobile device and then compare the data with the operator, if it wants to collaborate.” EL ESPAÑOL – El Androide Libre has contacted representatives of Google and WhatsApp in Spain, but until the closing of this edition they have not made any statements and refer to their respective privacy policies. This is how WhatsApp manages In the case of WhatsApp, the Meta company ensures in your Help Center that “does not disclose the content of its users’ messages in response to government requestsand it can’t do that either.” End-to-end encryption “ensures that only you and the person you communicate with can read or hear what you send.” The text, image or video leaves the device sending it encrypted and It remains that way until it reaches the mobile phone designated as the recipient. Nobody, not even WhatsApp itself, can consult the content. Currently, when companies like Meta receive, through a court order, a request to inform the police or a judge of a suspect or accused in a criminal investigation, they can provide data such as name, contacts, active hours and other information, but never the content of the messages, which is protected with end-to-end encryption protocol. That information is only kept on the phone used or, if the user chooses, in the phone’s cloud-based backup associated with a Drive account. WhatsApp chats are end-to-end encrypted Unsplash Omicrono Government agencies send requests for user data to WhatsApp, more than 300,000 between January and June 2024 internationally, according to the latest report published by Meta. In the case of Spain, the figure drops to 3,100 requests in legal processes corresponding to 5,765 accounts or users, with 66.3% of cases in which requests produced some dataalthough these are not specified. To check if these requests comply with applicable laws and WhatsApp privacy policiesthe company “has a specialized and trained compliance team that reviews and evaluates each government request for user data, in order to determine whether the request was sent in the context of an emergency or as a legal process originating from authorities police or government”. Meta transparency portal report on user information requests Goal The Free Android If the mobile phone from which the communications were made is found, David del Olmo explains that, in the case of WhatsApp, the information “is stored in the local database on the device, so recovering deleted messages without access to backup is technically possible in some cases.” Everything will depend “on the appropriate tools, the level of encryption and the possible physical or logical limitations of the device.” This is how Google manages For its part, the Internet giant explains very clearly how it proceeds in these cases in the terms of service published on their website. “At Google we receive requests for the disclosure of information about users from public bodies around the world. We carefully review each of these requests to ensure that it complies with applicable laws,” they say in the section ‘How Google handles government requests for user information‘. Gmail Justin Morgan Unsplash “If a request asks for too much information, we try to limit it and, In some cases, we refuse to provide the information in its entirety. In the Transparency Report, we publish the number and type of requests we receive,” they conclude. Still, there is a nuance, since the response to these requests depends on which Google service provider is: Google LLC, being based in the US, is governed by US law, while Google Ireland Limited, the provider of Mountain View services in Europeoperates under Irish law. Every six months, and for the sake of transparency, Google publishes a detailed report on the number of government requests for user information and the number of accounts subject to these requests, which can give a reliable clue about the final result of the proceedings requested by the magistrate of the Supreme. In the last recorded period, from January to June 2024, Google received more than 7,180 government requests for information corresponding to 11,368 accounts around the world. Of all of them, In 85% of the cases (an average also applicable to Spain) data were … Read more

Two new models are filtered for 2025 that can change everything

by

This week, all the spotlight should go to the new Galaxy S25which will be presented tomorrow as the new generation of Samsung’s leading mobile phones, and the one that aims to maintain the good streak started by the Galaxy S24. However, this is just the beginning for Samsung, which is preparing a very busy 2025 in all aspects. In fact, over the next few months we will see several very important launches, both of new generations of already established mobile phones and of completely new models, starting with the Galaxy S25 Slim who will join his range colleagues in the middle of the year. And the good news is that Samsung has not forgotten about foldables. Although folding phones have not achieved the same success as traditional Samsung models, the company is going to continue betting on them, even expanding its range. This is confirmed by the latest leak published by @Jukanlosreve in Xwhere he advances some of the details of Samsung’s plans for its foldables. To begin with, the first two models that will hit the market will be the new Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7. Far from being a simple renewal, as has happened in previous years, this generation will bring more news than usual, although some will be controversial. According to rumors, Samsung is considering changes to reduce production costs, one of the big problems with folding phones, and that may affect functions such as S Pen compatibility. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 could have an independent touch pen, which would have to be charged separately, and which would use the technology of the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition to reduce the thickness even if it affects the functionality of the pen. In addition, the new foldables could also use a new Qualcomm processor model, a trimmed version of the Snapdragon 8 Elite with fewer cores but cheaper. Samsung has realized that price is the biggest obstacle that users have when making the leap to foldables, and the third launch of the year aims to solve it. He Galaxy Z Flip FE It will be a cheaper version of the folding clamshell, which may become the best option to make the leap to this type of mobile. It would be a mobile phone very similar to the current Galaxy Z Flip 6, or perhaps the previous model, and possibly with Samsung’s new Exynos processor. Gizmochina The Free Android Finally, Samsung prepares the biggest things for last: its first triple folding. The Galaxy Z Tri-Fold (not the definitive name) could be a real revolution due to its two-hinge design that will allow you to open the phone twice to obtain a gigantic screen; According to rumors, it could reach up to 10 inches, the size of a conventional tablet, which could be reduced to the size of a normal mobile phone by closing the two hinges. Of course, this wouldn’t be the first triple foldable on the market; he has that honor Huawei with the Mate XTreleased last year. However, at the moment Huawei has only launched this revolutionary device in China, so Samsung has the opportunity to reach the global market first.

X and Meta will continue the fight against fake news in the EU

The inauguration of Donald Trump as president of the United States for the second time may represent a before and after in the technology sector. With Elon Musk in government and the prominent presence of all the great technological leaders at the ceremony, from Google’s Sundar Pichai to Apple’s Tim Cook, passing through Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos, the influence of the sector in the beginning legislature is beyond any doubt. And the first thing these tech leaders want is to eliminate the policies and laws that they feel have constrained them in recent years, and that includes fighting misinformation and fake news. Elon Musk himself was the first to declare war against fact-checkersjournalists and organizations dedicated to checking errors and ‘fake news’ published on social networks. Mark Zuckerberg got on his bandwagon, making a 180-degree turn from everything he had defended in recent years and betting on ‘freedom’ and community notes; In other words, they are the users themselves decide what is true. Community notes have been praised on social network It is not a perfect system, but some users believe that it is better than leaving this work in the hands of professionals. However, In Spain we will not see any of these changesat least for now; These businessmen seem to be living a double life, in which they change their minds depending on the political leader they are talking to. In the European Union, technology companies will not only continue with the same policy against fake news as before, but they have committed to investing and betting more on the same verification of information that they now consider malicious in the United States. Both Meta and X, through Google, TikTok, Snapchat, YouTube, LinkedIn and other Internet platforms have signed a code of conduct to combat hate and illegal speech on the Internet. The interesting thing is that they have not been forced to do so: it was a voluntary measure and not a law, although it has been created by the European Commission as part of the new Digital Services Law (DSA) launched last year. Manuel Ramirez / Grok The Free Android The DSA implemented a series of requirements for platforms, especially the largest ones and those that manage a greater amount of European user data, considered ‘gatekeepers’. The new code of conduct is based on these measures and expands them, so the companies that have signed it have committed to taking more measures against disinformation and hate speech from which they are legally required. However, it must be clarified that, being a voluntary measure, companies that fail to comply will not suffer any repercussions, and They can leave the agreement at any time; In fact, that’s just what Elon Musk did with

Microsoft launches a surprise for users who still have it on their PC

by

Microsoft is preparing for the worst. Next October the Windows 10 end of supportdespite being the most used computer operating system in the world; Hundreds of millions of users must prepare to be abandoned to their fate, although first Microsoft will leave them some ‘gifts’. And, surprisingly, Windows 10 continues to receive updates periodically, as if nothing had changed; and we’re not talking about small updates. At this point, it would be normal for Microsoft to close all development for Windows 10, to focus solely on releasing security patches that prepare the system as best as possible for the end of support in October. And yet, Microsoft engineers still have some surprises in store for users. This is how he discovered it @phantomofearth on Xwhich has been able to install the latest update for Windows 10, which takes it to version 19045.5435; Although at the moment it is only available on the previous channel, it is expected that in the coming weeks the update will be available to all users. And then, they will find a curious change in the calendar. Indeed, Windows 10 calendar has been updated with new functions accessible from the taskbar, which make it more useful, although there are also some new features that are more of a curiosity than anything else. With the new update, it is possible to activate the weather forecast in the calendar, so that the weather in the coming days is shown and we can prepare. Not only that, but the Windows 10 calendar will now show national holidays and events, and even interesting days; Next to the date, an illustration will now be displayed that will inform us of these special days, as well as a list of public events at the bottom as information about the festivities. For example, On February 14, Windows 10 will now show some roses and some hearts, to indicate that it is Valentine’s Day, a reminder that many couples will probably appreciate. Another curious detail added with the latest Windows 10 update is found in the taskbar search; From now on, Windows will show a new image every day in the search barand if we press it it will take us to Bing, something that will appeal to those who also prefer Bing’s daily wallpapers. Not all news will be well received. This update also brings a change that will be hated by many users, with the iMandatory installation of the new Outlook app; In addition, it must be remembered that Microsoft is also preparing to abandon the Microsoft 365 support on Windows 10which will affect apps like Word and Excel.

The 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite is official and that’s how powerful it is

by

Qualcomm hit the table at the end of 2024 with the presentation of the Snapdragon 8 Elitethe most powerful Android mobile processor on the market. Immediately, most manufacturers announced their plans to integrate the new chip into their future smartphones, with few exceptions. Now, Qualcomm has launched a new version of this processor, but the launch couldn’t be more different, because it has done so practically in secret. The new 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite is exactly what its name suggests: it is exactly the same processor that was announced a few months ago, but with 7 cores instead of 8. A difference that seems too small to be worth launching a new product, but that can actually be very important and that will be taken advantage of by several smartphone models that will be launched throughout 2025. Let us remember that The Snapdragon 8 Elite has a 2+6 core configuration to cover all types of tasks and offer leading performance in any app. The two leading cores are the Oryon Prime, capable of reaching a frequency of up to 4.32 GHz, and are the ones used in the most demanding games and tasks. They come accompanied by six Oryon Performance cores, which reach a frequency of only 3.53 GHz but consume less energy; These are the cores that are used in the vast majority of situations, activating the Prime cores only when strictly necessary. The new version of the Snapdragon 8 Elite has a 2+5 core configuration. In effect, that means that the core that has been removed is an Oryon Performance, the less powerful one. Otherwise, the rest of the features are identical, and the cores reach the same frequency and the chip has the same AI capabilities with the same NPU (neural processing unit). The core difference is enough to receive a new version number, SM8750-3-AB (the original is SM8750-AB) and technically, it is a different processor. Now, does removing one of the less powerful cores really make a difference? And why launch a chip like this? Until we have a mobile phone with this processor in our hands, we will not be able to clearly answer the first question; but the first leaks suggest that, surprisingly, yes there is a difference, but it depends on the mobile. A Geekbench 6 test has been made public, comparing the performance of the new OPPO Find N5, which will be one of the first phones to use the new 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite, with the performance of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra that will be presented this week and it has the 8-core Snapdragon 8 Elite. According to tests, the new 7-core processor has 14% lower performance in multicore tasks. However, an important detail must be clarified: the processor of the Galaxy S25 Ultra It is ‘overclocked’ and does not work at the base frequency; Its Prime cores run at 4.47 GHz instead of the usual 4.32 GHz. Additionally, single-core performance between the two chips is virtually identical. According to Mishaal Rahman, the difference between a 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite and an 8-core one at the base frequency is only 7% in Geekbench and 2% in AnTuTu. OPPO | Weibo The Free Android In practice, users are unlikely to notice much of a difference between the 7-core and 8-core Snapdragon 8 Elite; although enthusiasts and gamers will probably prefer the latter. This small sacrifice has been made for a simple reason: for the new thinner folding phones. New folding mobile models like the aforementioned OPPO Find N5 are the thinnest developed to date, and that means they also have less space dedicated to heat dissipation. By having one less core, the new Snapdragon 8 Elite model emits less heat and that makes it ideal for folding phones. That also explains why Qualcomm has given so little hype to this launch: the 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite has simply appeared in Qualcomm’s documentation without any type of announcement.

Samsung confirms the update date of the Galaxy S24 and others to One UI 7 based on Android 15: it is going as planned

by

Just yesterday the price of each of the Galaxy S25 which in just over 24 hours will be announced to launch Samsung’s flagship mobile phones. They will carry One UI 7, the custom layer based on Android 15, which debuts for the first time in the new S series phones and thus begins to reach the Galaxy S24, S23 and more. Samsung has now confirmed when will they be updated. From the moment it was known that One UI 7 would be released with the new Galaxy S25it was learned that Samsung would roll out the new update to the rest of the Galaxy S in the following weeks. Now it is known that first they will be those from Korea and it will take a few more weeks for the previous Galaxy S. In fact, the beta has been available for the Galaxy S24 since the month of December and part of thisso they would be the first to be updated. The peculiar thing about Samsung’s confirmation is that it has boasted that it has been able to develop the update in a way faster than One UI 6. It must be remembered that the Galaxy S24 have been the first flagship of the company that they have been left without the premiere of the new update when the previous Galaxy S23, S22 and more have done so with the respective One UI 6, One UI 5 and more. Be that as it may, Samsung has confirmed that Galaxy S series mobile devices should receive the One UI 7 update at the end of the first quarter 2025. The full deployment would end on March 31 of this year, so the first would be the Galaxy S24 to continue, supposedly, with the folding phones and the previous flagships such as the Galaxy S23 or S22. One UI 7 interface SamMobile The Free Android The curious thing about the press release is that omits the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 folding phones. We will have to wait until tomorrow at the presentation of the Galaxy S25 to find out the roadmap that Samsung has planned, since it will possibly indicate when it plans to precisely update each of its flagships. An update to Android 15 that will have more artificial intelligence functions and the premiere of Now Bar, a kind of Apple’s Dynamic Islandbut on the lock screen to assist user with recommendations according to the use you give to your mobile. Alvarez del Vayo The Free Android One UI 7, according to Gizmochinait will also apply changes in some of the spaces most used by the user such as the redesigned quick settings panelnew icons for Samsung apps, smoother animations and changes also in the interface of the camera app to continue outlining one of the most complete layers of Android.
