Samsung has begun rolling out the stable version of One UI 9 to the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. The software is based on Android 17 and follows a months-long beta testing period, with availability expanding across multiple markets.

South Korea appears to be among the first markets receiving the update. An initial over-the-air download reported there is approximately 650MB, although the package size and rollout timing may vary by region and device.

One UI 9 adds new AI-powered features

Samsung is highlighting My FanCam as one of the main additions in One UI 9. The feature is designed to give users a new way to interact with fan-focused camera content, although the company’s announcement does not provide further technical details.

The update also lets users create and edit their own Now Brief cards with generative AI. Now Brief is Samsung’s personalised information feature, and the new controls give users more flexibility over the cards shown in that experience.

Samsung has also updated Now Nudge. The company says the revised feature requires fewer steps, which should make its suggestions and related actions quicker to use.

Samsung apps receive broader improvements

Beyond the headline AI features, One UI 9 includes updates to several Samsung applications and tools. Samsung says users can expect improvements to Creative Studio, Interpreter, Document Scan, and Voice Recorder.

The changes cover both creative and practical tasks. Creative Studio is being refined for content creation, while Interpreter and Document Scan address translation and document handling. Voice Recorder is also receiving an update as part of the broader software release.

New Warranty and Care settings

One UI 9 introduces a new Warranty and Care settings menu. The menu is intended to bring warranty and device-care information into a dedicated location, making those details easier to find on supported Galaxy phones.

Samsung has not provided a single worldwide release date for the update. Instead, One UI 9 is rolling out progressively in different markets, so Galaxy S26 owners may see the download at different times. Users can check their phone’s software-update settings to determine whether the stable release is available.

The update applies to all three models in the current flagship range: the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. It marks the series’ move from the beta version of Samsung’s software to the Android 17-based stable release.
