Samsung recently started with its One UI 4 Android 12 beta program for its latest premium flagships, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3 devices. The company is already done with the Android 12 One UI 4 beta program for the Galaxy S21 series last week. Now, it is time for the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and Galaxy Z Fold 3 to taste the Android 12 experience. Notably, the beta program is currently live for users in the US. According to the latest report by 9To5Google, the One UI 4 Android 12 beta program for both devices is live via the Samsung Members app under the “Benefits” section. The Android 12 One UI 4 beta build available for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 carries the same version as the one live for the Samsung Galaxy S21 series. It comes with all the Android 12 goodies, such as the Material You theme, and Dynamic Color support. Along with, Android 12’s finalized AOSP codebase and all the latest OS’ features.
The update is live in the US following the earlier releases in South Korea and India
Well, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 US users aren’t the first ones to experience the new operating system from Google. The Android 12 One UI 4 beta program is already live for users in South Korea and India. Moreover, the beta update is live for users owning the unlocked variants of the device. There are some possibilities that some carrier models may also be eligible. One UI 4, apart from the general Android 12’s theming engine and features, doesn’t bring a big change in the overall aesthetics on the visual level. Folks at 9To5Google were able to get the beta downloaded on their unlocked Galaxy Z Fold 3. However, the installation process did take some extra time. This was due to Samsung’s opposition to Android’s Seamless Updates feature. If you into interested in Android 12L enhancements, sadly, there is no sign of Android 12L with this update. Keeping our fingers crossed, they are supposed to arrive very soon. Also, not to forget, the beta One UI 4 Android 12 update is also live for the Galaxy Z Flip 3 in the US. So, if you own any of the Galaxy Z Flip 3 or Galaxy Z Fold 3 units in the US, you are in for a treat. You can grab the beta update from the Samsung Members app.
