Samsung's Android 16 (One UI 8) Reaches Galaxy A06, A07
For owners of Samsung’s budget-friendly Galaxy A06 and A07, the wait is over. The Android 16 update, layered with Samsung’s own One UI 8, has begun its rollout, bringing a host of improvements and features to these entry-level devices. This move underscores Samsung‘s commitment to supporting even its most affordable handsets with the latest software.

While other manufacturers are still sketching out their Android 16 roadmaps, Samsung is already near the finish line, a testament to their efficient software development and deployment strategy. The One UI 8 update is initially hitting devices in Southeast Asia, with a broader rollout expected to include India and other global markets in the coming days.

Keep an eye out for specific build versions to ensure you’re grabbing the correct update for your device. The One UI 8 build versions are:

  • Galaxy A07 – A075FXXU1BYJA
  • Galaxy A06 – A065FXXU7CYJ8

Beyond the core Android 16 enhancements, this update also includes the latest security patches. The Galaxy A07 receives the October 2025 security patch, while the A06 gets a security boost with the 2025 patch, fortifying these devices against emerging threats.

The update brings a refreshed user experience based on Android 16, focusing on stability and enhanced security for third-party apps. Users can expect a streamlined interface and improved performance across the board.

One notable change is the revamped Quick Share experience, now featuring a dedicated interface divided into “Send” and “Receive” sections. This should make sharing files and media with other devices even more intuitive.

Samsung has also refreshed the design of native One UI apps, including Calendar, Clock, and Reminder, giving them a more modern and cohesive look. These subtle but effective changes contribute to a more polished user experience.

“One UI 8 has no major design differences from One UI 7. This version mainly focuses on refinements, bringing a clean and easily accessible design. It also streamlines the overall experience.”

Updating your Galaxy A06 or A07 is a straightforward process. Simply navigate to Settings > Software update > Download and install to begin the update.

While One UI 8 brings a welcome set of improvements, Samsung isn’t resting on its laurels. The company is already working on One UI 8.5, which promises even more refinements and new features. One rumored addition is an “Adaptive Data Saver” that intelligently manages background downloads, helping users conserve mobile data.

As Samsung continues to refine its One UI, it’s clear that the company is committed to providing a consistent and feature-rich experience across its entire product lineup. Regular updates like this one ensure that even budget-friendly devices like the Galaxy A06 and A07 remain relevant and secure in an ever-evolving mobile landscape.
