Samsung is expanding the list of devices set to receive the One UI 8.5 update. After starting the first wave in South Korea, the company has officially confirmed support for the new software skin for two dozen more Galaxy smartphones and tablets.

Earlier, Samsung had already announced One UI 8.5 for the flagship Galaxy S25 lineup, the Galaxy S24 series, the foldable Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, last year's Fold 6 and Flip 6, as well as the Galaxy Tab S10 and Tab S11 tablets. Now, older devices are joining the list.

The updated lineup includes the Galaxy S23, S23+, and S23 Ultra, the foldable Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5, and the Galaxy Tab S9, Tab S9+, and Tab S9 Ultra tablets. Additionally, One UI 8.5 will be available for several popular A-series models: Galaxy A15, A16, A17, A25, A26, A34, A35, A36, A54, A55, and A56.

Global rollout of One UI 8.5 begins on May 11. The update will gradually reach Europe, India, North America, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and other regions. As usual, the firmware will roll out in phases, so availability timing may vary by country and device model.
