Samsung has started rolling out the anticipated One UI update to compatible smart TVs, so we can expect even better communication with better Galaxy devices and TVs. A few days back, Samsung stated at its annual developer summit, SDC 24, that the One UI update is coming to smart TVs.
Today, the company has fulfilled its promise and begun rolling out the One UI update to 2023 models. Folks over at SamMobile shared several details of the anticipated software upgrade.
One UI update is based on Tizen OS 8.0 and currently seeding to the S90C OLED TV, which was released in 2023. It recently received a software upgrade ending with a 2000 version number, and now received the One UI update ending with a 2011 build number.
We do have a couple of Samsung Smart TVs on the team and we checked our units, our CUE60 4K UHD TV is running on the 2003 software version and is yet to receive the One UI update.
One UI update for Samsung Smart TVs rolling out with a flurry of useful features, including new interface, UI improvements, new Game Bar features, and more. The update adopts UI elements from the One UI software on Samsung smartphones, matching app icons for some apps.
