This list includes over 70 Samsung Galaxy phones that will receive updates to Android 16 and One UI 8
Samsung is working on completing the design of its next major operating system, which is based on Android 16, while Apple, and more especially the major news surrounding iOS 26 and its new Liquid Glass feature, are receiving a lot of criticism. Naturally, we're discussing One UI 8.
Samsung is aware that if something is effective, it should be enhanced rather than altered. As a result, the company has shifted its focus from a purely aesthetic approach to one that emphasizes performance enhancements, real functional improvements, improved battery management, and a more seamless, user-friendly interface.
The best part is that these aren't just well-meaning words; we were able to observe that the new version of One UI 8 is everything we anticipated from the brand because the beta phase has already started.
However, we will discuss all of the phones that will get this significant update today rather than that. We can already talk about a reasonably trustworthy provisional list, based on phones that satisfy Samsung's technical requirements, even though the company hasn't confirmed the final list yet.
It appears that One UI 8 will eventually be available for all of these phones.

This list, of course, is not final. Certain versions or regional variations might be left out, but later on, unannounced models might be added. In a few weeks, when Samsung releases the final devices that will run One UI 8, an official confirmation from the company is anticipated. There is no doubt that the goal of this latest version is to be among the most adaptable updates in recent years, which is something that is valued more now than ever.
