Samsung has finished rolling out One UI 8.5 to every Galaxy device it officially said would get the update, and it quietly pushed the software to 10 more models that were never promised the firmware in the first place. That means the One UI 8.5 update is now available for all 44 confirmed Galaxy devices, with a few extras included as well.

The last confirmed device to receive the update was the Galaxy A15. Samsung first introduced One UI 8.5 in December with a beta program for the Galaxy S25 series, then widened testing and moved to a stable release for the Galaxy S26 line before shifting older eligible phones and tablets to the new build last month.

Every confirmed Galaxy model has now been covered

In total, 44 devices were officially eligible for One UI 8.5, and Samsung has now delivered the update to all of them. The list spans recent flagships, foldables, tablets, and a broad slice of the A series – a sign that Samsung is still unusually aggressive about supporting more than just its premium hardware.

  • Galaxy S25, S25+, S25 Ultra, S25 Edge, S25 FE
  • Galaxy S24, S24+, S24 Ultra, S24 FE
  • Galaxy S23, S23+, S23 Ultra, S23 FE
  • Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7, Z Flip 7 FE, Z TriFold, Z Fold 6, Z Flip 6, Z Fold 5, Z Flip 5, Z Fold Special Edition
  • Galaxy Tab S11, Tab S11 Ultra, Tab S10+, Tab S10 Ultra, Tab S10 FE, Tab S10 FE+, Tab S9, Tab S9+, Tab S9 Ultra, Tab S9 FE, Tab S9 FE+
  • Galaxy A56, A55, A54, A36, A35, A34, A26, A25, A17, A16, A15

The 10 extra Galaxy phones that got lucky

Samsung also shipped One UI 8.5 to 10 devices it had not formally confirmed for the release: Galaxy A06, Galaxy F06, Galaxy F55, Galaxy F56, Galaxy M06, Galaxy M16, Galaxy M55, Galaxy M55s, Galaxy M56, and Galaxy XCover 7 Pro. That does not amount to an official promise, but it does suggest the company is willing to broaden support when the hardware and software stack cooperate.

For users, the upside is obvious: more devices get the latest interface and features sooner than expected. For Samsung, the risk is equally clear – once you start upgrading beyond the published list, people begin asking why their model was left out, and that is never a fun customer-service email to answer.

What Samsung may do with the remaining models

Samsung has not officially confirmed the other devices on its wider wish list, but the fact that 10 of them already received the update gives the rest a decent shot. The likeliest outcome is that more of those phones and rugged models will follow if testing stays clean, while the company keeps the formal paperwork intentionally conservative.
