That device is the Galaxy A36. Samsung says a \u201cphased rollout\u201d starts today in the US, UK, India, and Korea.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">There is a footnote, though. The Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Flip 5 are getting the beta solely in the US and Korea, while the Galaxy A36 is only eligible in India.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">This comes as the Galaxy S25 series is getting its ninth One UI 8.5 beta release and, as other supported devices get the latest build, AirDrop over Quick Share support is also expanding.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">You can enroll in the One UI 8.5 beta through the Samsung Members app.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"anp-pro-aside\" aria-label=\"context\">\n<p class=\"anp-pro-kicker\">Why it matters<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">News like this often changes audience expectations and competitors\u2019 plans.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">When one player makes a move, others usually react \u2014 it is worth reading the event in context.<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<aside class=\"anp-pro-aside\" aria-label=\"outlook\">\n<p class=\"anp-pro-kicker\">What to look out for next<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">The full picture will become clear in time, but the headline already shows the dynamics of the industry.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">Further statements and user reactions will add to the story.<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The topic Samsung expands One UI 8.5 beta to more Galaxy devices, including Galaxy A-series is &hellip; <a title=\"Samsung expands One UI 8.5 beta to more Galaxy devices, including Galaxy A-series\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/innovatenews.site\/index.php\/2026\/04\/09\/samsung-expands-one-ui-8-5-beta-to-more-galaxy-devices-including-galaxy-a-series\/\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Samsung expands One UI 8.5 beta to more Galaxy devices, including Galaxy A-series<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":2797,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[214,268,205,747,92],"class_list":["post-2796","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-innovate","tag-beta","tag-devices","tag-galaxy","tag-including","tag-samsung"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
