Samsung One UI 7 Hands On Review - 20 New Features

Also, u can set the charging limit to whatever u want with the routines app.

[@panathatube]

One UI 7 has exceeded my expectations; it's probably the best skin out there and it's another reason to get a new Samsung phone.

[@TechTalkTV]

Absolutely

[@nj__01]

could you elaborate what features did you find the most useful...!!?

[@Universoftech]

They should give a bigger battery like the Chinese brands did something like 6000mhA . One inch main camera . A 10x periscope zoom with a better sensor . Anything else is already good , but unfortunately they focus only on useless software features and harmful software and security updates .

[@panathatube]

​@Xcalibxrrr I have the same phone, I hate one ui7 and im so glad I'm not getting it. Theu should have kept one ui6 and just added extra features. IMO, quick panel looks absolutely garbage.

[@kennygates]

Fun treat, I installed last night (December 5th 2024....7:30pm)while running some deliveries on my day off, I was driving and plugged my Phone in and the charge animation read driving with a car icon in it. No one has mentioned this yet, but it was a cool feature of the new allocated space.

Im just disappointed the battery will stay at 5000mah. Many other pro phones with the same SD 8 elite will have around 6000mah. While the battery will still be great. It won't be Ultra as the name indicates.

I feel exactly the same bro. iPhone seems so dumb phone after Samsung. I had used iPhones for 10 years before using Samsung and never regretted switching to Samsung. And now it’s been only 10 days since I switched to iPhone and already miss Samsung. Pro Max charges for 2 hrs and lasts only a day while I could use my Samsung for 1.5 days easily

It depends! If your S23 Ultra is still serving you well, there's no rush to upgrade. However, if you see value in the upgrades, particularly the improved chipset, then it could be worth making the switch.

Am i the only one who hate these pill-shaped crap everywhere on the ui along with the new apps icons and quick settings panel. Yes one ui 7 brings some good stuff as well it's not exactly all bad but for real pill shaped battery icon, what is this xiaomi. SAMSUNG needs to give us the option to bring back the old icons pack as well as remove or change this pill shaped battery and notifications. The now bar is actually okay if it stayed pill shaped in my opinion.

2:41 This is the part a lot of people have questions about.

This is like how to go in past and degrade. (when it comes to design). They couldve added these features without changing and ruining the ui. They should market this call transcription thing, but i know they wont coz all they can do is copy apples bad stuff but not copy the stuff that they should copy from apple including marketing.
