If you haven't upgraded to the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7, or Z Flip 7 FE yet, you're probably wondering when your foldable will get One UI 8. The good news is that the wait won't be too long. According to a leaked schedule, the update is expected to start rolling out on October 2.

The list shows that several Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip models will be upgraded in turn, but surprisingly, the Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 could get the update before the Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5. This is hard to explain, but the leaks have been pretty consistent on this timeline.

The specific update schedule is expected as follows:

  • Galaxy Z Fold 6 – October 2
  • Galaxy Z Flip 6 – October 2
  • Galaxy Z Fold 4 – October 6
  • Galaxy Z Flip 4 – October 6
  • Galaxy Z Fold 5 – October 13
  • Galaxy Z Flip 5 – October 13

The leak comes from a website specializing in tracking updates in Türkiye. Although not official, this schedule usually matches the roadmap in Europe, which is slower than Korea but faster than the US and Canada. That is also the reason why the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition does not appear on the list, but it is likely to be upgraded at the same time.

Thus, in just a few weeks, the previous Galaxy Z series will start receiving One UI 8 based on Android 16, bringing many new features and a smoother experience for users.
