Samsung makes official the date to update to One UI 7

It was a matter of time before Samsung announced the exact date for the official deployment of One UI 7 and Android 15. It has been the presentation of the new Galaxy S25 which has given way to this confirmation, which does not come as an official statement, but rather indirectly. The company did not want to give too much importance to the beginning of the update, but has revealed when it will begin to implement it on mobile phones that currently have One UI 6. He has done it through a small disclaimer in the official images of One UI 7those that have been uploaded to their website announcing the news of the customization layer. In them, and thanks to the user @DalgleishGX on X (Twitter), we have discovered that Samsung indicates the exact date to begin the deployment. The fine print can be translated as follows: “One UI 7 official launch will begin when Galaxy S series launches“. It is also stated that this update will be carried out gradually and that will gradually reach the different eligible Galaxy devices. When are the Galaxy S25 officially launched? On February 7th. This is the date that Samsung has chosen to put up for sale the devices announced a couple of days ago. Although the terminals already have One UI 7 installed, it is expected that the general public will access this version on the 7th, so The update to the rest of the mobile phones on the market will begin from that date. In addition, other information can be added to this information from Samsung: confirmed a few days ago. According to the brand itself, all Galaxy S24, Galaxy S23, and Galaxy S22 series devices should update by Q1 2025. Or what is the same, before next March 31.

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

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.

The beginning of each year already has a tradition: that Samsung presents its new S line. Last year we had excellent Galaxy S24with a Ultra model which was crowned as the best phone of the year at the Xataka awards. Today, January 22, has been the day chosen to celebrate an Unpacked which has allowed us to see the new Galaxy S25 in great detail. From now on we can pre-purchase them, and without a doubt the best place for this is the official samsung store. We tell you all the advantages and exclusive promotions it offers. This is how Samsung makes money: the secret is in the IPHONE The new Galaxy S25 and S25 Plus are amazing Samsung has once again wanted to give users several options so that we can go for it. the device that best suits our needs or tastes. As usual, the base and Plus models are more similar to each other, although with small differences that can tip the balance towards one or the other. The base model has a screen 6.2-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X with FHD+ resolution and a refresh rate of 120 Hz. If we are looking for a better screen, then the Plus model is the one we should choose: it uses a screen with the same technology but 6.7 inches and with QHD+ resolution. The design of both is renewed with an aluminum frame and protected with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2, so they will be very resistant to bumps and scratches. Inside we find a processor Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxymodified version of the Qualcomm SoC to achieve the highest possible efficiency in the Samsung device. Furthermore, both have 12GB RAM. In terms of autonomy, we are also going to find differences between the two. The base model has a 4,000 mAh battery, while the Plus model has a slightly larger 4,900 mAh one. The photographic system, however, is identical for both devices: a triple camera system with a 50+10+12 megapixel configuration. The front camera is 12 megapixels.

Time to talk about the promotions of the official store, . The first thing we should highlight is that we can use the ‘Delivery and Release’ program to make the device cheaper with up to 880 euros discount (depending on the device we deliver). The second thing is that Samsung has activated a promotion called ‘Double your storage’, with which we can get a device with 512 GB of storage by paying the price of the 256 GB model (that is, paying the immediately lower price). The base Galaxy S25 will hit stores for 909 euros in its 128 GB model, although thanks to the aforementioned ‘Double your storage’ promotion we can get the 256 GB one at the same price. Furthermore, if we use Bizum as a payment method, we will obtain an additional discount of 50 euros, leaving its price at 859 euros. The thing doesn’t end there. By accessing the expert chat on the Samsung website, we can request an additional 100 euro discount, a free 25 W charger and a code to get some Galaxy Buds3 Pro totally free, leaving its price, therefore, at 759 euros. Finally, making the purchase through the official app, we will receive another extra 10% discountleaving the 256 GB version of the device at the mind-blowing price of 683.10 euros. And be careful, because we can lower the price even more if we use the ‘Delivery and Release’ program. *Some prices may have changed since the last review Turn to the Plus model, which we can also buy with the same advantages as the base model. This device will cost 1,159 euros in its 256 GB version, but with ‘Duplicate and release’ the 512 GB version will also cost us the same price.

As was the case with the base Galaxy S25, making the purchase from the application will mean an additional 10% discount, leaving the Galaxy S25 Plus at 908.10 euros (which we can reduce even more with Delivery and Release).

The new Galaxy S25 Ultra comes with a redefined designthanks above all to softer edges that will make it more comfortable in hand. The screen returns in this case to be one of the key points.

Inside we will find the same Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy that its little brothers have, as well as 12 GB of RAM.
