One UI 7 & Android 15: Is Your Galaxy A Series Smartphone on the List?
Samsung is a well-known Android smartphone maker in the world, and its One UI operating system is widely famous for its features and performance. The latest version, One UI 6.1.1 is based on Android 14. Samsung fans are very excited about the next major update, One UI 7 based on Android 15.
The upcoming version of Google’s operating system that is Android 15 is currently under beta testing. After the official release of Android 15, Samsung will open its beta program for One UI 7 for Galaxy devices later this year.
We can expect some of the Android 15 features to be integrated into Samsung’s One UI, along with some Samsung-specific additions and optimizations though it is too early to know the exact changes or features.

Samsung is soon going to launch its Galaxy S24 FE smartphone, and in recent weeks there has been a lot of buzz about it. Today, new leak has given us a detailed look at the phone through images showing it in four different colors: blue, graphite, green, and yellow.
While the leak doesn’t include a white version but it’s expected to be available once the phone is officially released.
The Galaxy S24 FE looks almost identical to its predecessor, the Galaxy S23 FE. Even the LED flash is positioned exactly the same as it was on the Galaxy S23 FE.
One of the main differences in the S24 FE is its flat aluminum frame. The side bezels will be approximately 1.99 mm thick, and the back will be made of glass. The display will be 6.7-inch Full HD+ resolution with a 120 Hz refresh rate and a peak brightness of 1,900 nits. It will also be protected by Gorilla Glass Victus+ on top. Powering the device will be an underclocked version of the Exynos 2400 chipset.
The device will have a 50 MP main camera, a 12 MP ultrawide camera, and an 8 MP 3x telephoto camera. The Galaxy S24 FE will support 25W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. The Galaxy S23 FE was launched in October of last year, and it seems likely that the Galaxy S24 FE could follow a similar release schedule this year.

Samsung Introduces Quantum5 Smartphone Featuring Advanced Security through Quantum Technology
Samsung has introduced a smartphone that is the Galaxy Quantum5 which was developed in collaboration with SK Telecom exclusively for the South Korean market. This means the device cannot be purchased outside of South Korea. The phone is made possible with the other partnership of ID Quantique (IDQ). The company is responsible for the advanced quantum cryptographic chip.
The key feature of the chip is its Quantum Random Number Generator (QRNG) chip. This chip uses quantum physics to produce truly random numbers for encrypting and decrypting sensitive data like biometrics and passwords. Unlike traditional random number generators the QRNG chip ensures higher security by reducing the risk of external influence or tampering.
Aside from its QRNG chip, the Galaxy Quantum5 shares most of its specifications with the Galaxy A55. It has an aluminum frame, glass front and back body with IP67 ingress protection, 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and stereo speakers, 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 5MP macro camera on the back. The Galaxy Quantum5 comes with an Exynos 1480 processor, supported by 8GB of RAM and 128GB of expandable storage. It has a 5,000 mAh battery with 25W fast charging capabilities.
The Samsung Galaxy Quantum5 comes in three vibrant colors: Awesome Ice Blue, Awesome Lilac, and Awesome Navy, with a price tag of KRW 618,200 (approximately INR 38,772).
The Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 Lite might have reached the end of its software update roadmap since it has just received its third and last OS upgrade. After an earlier update to One UI 6.0, which occurred in the early days of this year, the tablet, launched originally with Android 11 in the middle of 2021, was treated to the new Android 14-based One UI 6.1 update in South Korea.
This comes with the firmware version T225NKOU8EXH2 and includes the July 2024 security patch, bringing new features intrinsic to Android 14 and One UI 6.1.
While most Samsung devices have already received this latest update of One UI 6.1, some even await the 6.1.1 version; the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite has been somewhat behind schedule. On the other hand, it’s pretty surprising that this low-priority, low-budget tablet got a third major software update.
Since this update is currently rolling out in South Korea, it might take a little while longer for users in other regions to get it, but it will.
