- Samsung has initiated the One UI 8 Watch beta program for the Galaxy Watch 6.
- The update is currently live in South Korea, but we expect wider availability to be announced soon.
- Meanwhile, it has also concluded testing for the Galaxy Watch 7, indicating a stable update may be coming soon.
Samsung recently rolled out stable One UI 8 to the Galaxy S25 series and has been testing beta builds on nearly a dozen other flagships and mid-range devices. Besides phones, the One UI 8 Watch is also set to arrive on a range of supported Galaxy Watch models. While the Galaxy Watch 8 series came preinstalled with One UI 8 Watch, the Watch Ultra followed soon after. Meanwhile, a beta has been underway for the last generation Galaxy Watch 7 series, and the program is now being extended to the older Galaxy Watch 6.
According to a user’s post on Samsung Community forums, One UI 8 Watch beta is now available for the Galaxy Watch 6. It’s safe to presume that the update also applies to the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, as the two devices share the same hardware.
