Samsung has released a new beta update for One UI 8.5 on the Galaxy S25 series. The Android 16‑based update delivers a few small tweaks and fixes.

One UI 8.5 is expected to see its stable release soon with the launch of the Galaxy S26 series, but the beta program has been ongoing for the Galaxy S25 series for a while now. After a considerable wait, the fourth beta for One UI 8.5 has arrived, as spotted by Tarun Vats and several others.

Fixes in Beta 4

• Fixed an issue where the clock on the lock screen moved down.
• Fixed an issue when clicking search history in the Phone app.
• Resolved the problem where calls switch to the device under specific conditions while using a Bluetooth headset.
• Fixed an issue when pasting phone numbers into the keypad after clicking a call link.
• Fixed an issue where Al Select does not automatically close when “Copy” is selected.

Not too exciting, but it shows continued progress toward the stable version. The update is likely to receive another beta (or two, or even more) before a full release, but that probably won’t happen until after the Galaxy S26 goes on sale, which is expected to land in early March.

For now, the beta remains solely on the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra, with no signs of expansion. The latest beta is available in most regions already, but it may take a day or two to roll out widely to all users.
