Got the update for S23 ultra in the UK a couple of hours ago. It's actually very good! Very very fluid and consistent user experience, much better than before. I've actually grown fond of the layout and theme of Android 15 very much. Kudos to Samsung for this because they've clearly worked out the bugs and overall the little details much needed for One UI. One last thing, the battery is actually significantly better than before! And this is on day 1 of the update, i'm impressed! I charged the phone to 99% at work, before going ahead and installing the update, ive been using the phone damn nearly every other few mins, and its on 59% now! 4 hr 35 screen on time as of now, it will EASILY hit 8-9 hours at this rate. Without much use, 18 hrs to 20 hrs of charge no problem.

    Received the update to my S23+ this morning. Impressed. My phones battery life seems to have improved.

      Tej, 7 hours agoWhat about battery life....Its the same on my s24+ so will be the same for all models.

        Yep just got the UI7 for S23 Ultra in India Today at sharp 12:00 IST. Lets see how it goes

          ı received it to my s23 today. new polished interface is snappier than before. I see no hiccups so far which is nice. camera UI is more one-hand friendly but overall picture quality is the same. a few AI features arrived but, a few are missing. video background noise eraser is not here. it is still unable to remove sunglasses from faces. there are some more customizations for lock screen, AOD and home screen which is nice. gemini is able to interact with samsung calendar, notes and spotify.
          since this update delayed so much and samsung will release android16 on july with flip/fold7, I expect to get the next update in november or december.

And that's not only valid for Android, but also for PCs and Apple devices.. it's just how it is.
                  Still, on the bright side - small improvements after small improvements manage somehow at the end to bring something good.. I think..

                            Congratulations! Hopefully they don't stop it after 2 days like they did for S24, because they messed things up a bit from all the polishing.

                              Galaxy S23 FE starts getting One UI 7 update.
                              The update is now available in South Korea.

                                how TF are galaxy s23 phones getting updates when s24 ultra phones still haven't gotten the update! This is ridiculous!

                                  Yeah, downloading mine as I type this message. Quite big, little over 5GB. I'll post a after message. Thank you Samsung, just about time , I wonder when One UI 8 will be coming

                                        I've got it. Surprisingly fast 5 giga + update. AI can be ignored - and this is a good thing!
