      I never seen one ui8 update on my samsung s25 ultra is it a glitch or something else or my phone is not good?

        R.I.P.
        One UI 7
        2025 – 2025

        Came late and left early.

        (P.S. I read that those who are planning to unlock their bootloaders should stay at One UI 7.)

          one ui 7 still being a topic today, and currently even a bigger topic than one ui 8 (maybe all the people I've spoken to aren't even aware of it or something?), just shows how small the time gap between ui 7 and 8 is, and how late ui 7 came out

              Oh well. I'm not THAT much of a power user. but y'know... I do love to keep the bootloader open to fix stuff sometimes. Or give longevity to old ass devices

S and Fold series are way expensive than EU and USA, Over $300 difference in every model. S25 U price in India is $1650 while in USA its $1299. Major difference. Fold 7 Costs $2200 in India.

                    Hope it brings real improvements. Design and features are already good. My s24+ is waiting.

My S21 FE is made in Vietnam and got the green (then white) line a day after One UI 7 (now there are 6 white lines and growing). The only way to fix it is to pay $200 and still they are not sure they will find a new screen for it lol..

                          Goddess Lyrienne, 15 Sep 2025And with that: a PERMANENTLY LOCKED BOOTLOADER. Seriously... moreAnd you can not unlock bootloader on Xiaomi in my region... and they are not the only one.

                          Heck, the only brands that allow unlocking the bootloader in my region are Motorola, Fairphone, Pixel and Oneplus.

                          And most custom roms are tailored to Pixels or Fairphones nowdays, LineageOS is not annymore what it once was.

                              Anonymous, 15 Sep 2025Both require screen replacement with the same priceHad green screens, didn't require new display. Just cable connected correctly. 1 days repair at Samsung repair shop.

                                Seriously though. if I didn't need the stylus. and flagship performance I would've ditched the samsung ship...

                                    (And yes they were original, I don't live in India)

                                    I don't know if S series sold in India are produced there, but I do know A series are.

                                    Friend of mine imported A35 once from there (because dirt cheap) and it was made in india, while the ones sold in our country (EU) come from Vietnam.

                                      And to add, first iPhone was 2007, first Galaxy S was 2010.

                                      Who had a UI design/feature/function first does not and will never matter, all that matters is "is it implemented well enough" on whatever it is that we're using. This has been the tech industry for the last 40+ years.

I have had several OnePlus phones that were flawless and all of them were NOT made in India! They were made in various other Asian countries like Vietnam, etc., etc. Does Samsung also have to manufacture their phones in India the same as OnePlus? I also determined through the official OnePlus community that virtually all the hardware issues with various models were manufactured in India. YMMV
