The Samsung Galaxy S22 series has started receiving the third One UI 5.0 Beta. And with this beta update, the stable Android 13 update for the Galaxy S22 is now closer than ever. Samsung started testing the beta update early last month and it’s now vastly improved and has only fewer minor bugs. This means that Samsung may soon release the stable build.
One UI 5.0 beta 3 for the Galaxy S22 model is available in parts of Europe, including Poland and Germany. It is available with firmware build S901BXXU2ZVI9.
