Samsung Galaxy Android 14: What’s New

Samsung’s version of Android 14 looks different than the version Google released for Pixel devices because it utilizes the company’s One UI 6.

Samsung’s One UI upgrades deliver design changes, enhancements for current features, and new features for newer, and older, Galaxy models.

Older phones and tablets sometimes miss out on newer features so if you want the best feature set, you may need to upgrade your phone or tablet.

Here’s the full Samsung Galaxy Android 14/One UI 6 change log:

Quick panel

• New button layout: The quick panel has a new layout that makes it easier to access the features you use most. Wi-Fi and Bluetooth now have their own dedicated buttons at the top of the screen, while visual features, like Dark mode and Eye comfort shield, have been moved to the bottom. Other quick settings buttons appear in a customizable area in the middle.
• Instantly access the full quick panel: By default, a compact quick panel with notifications appears when you swipe down from the top of the screen. Swiping down again hides notifications and shows the expanded quick panel. If you turn on Quick Settings instant access, you can view the expanded quick panel by swiping just once from the right side of the top of the screen. Swiping down from the left side shows notifications.
• Quickly access brightness control: The brightness control bar now appears by default in the compact quick panel when you swipe down once from the top of the screen for quicker and easier brightness adjustments.
• Improved album art display: While playing music or videos, album art will cover the entire media controller in the notification panel if the app playing the music or video provides album art.
• Enhanced layout for notifications: Each notification now appears as a separate card, making it easier to recognize individual notifications.
• Sort notifications by time: While playing music or videos, album art will cover the entire media controller in the notification panel if the app playing the music or video provides album art.

Lock screen

• Reposition your clock: You now have more freedom to move your clock to the position of your choice on the Lock screen.

Home screen

• Simplified icon labels: App icon labels are now limited to a single line for a cleaner and simpler look. “Galaxy” and “Samsung” have been removed from some app names to make them shorter and easier to scan.

Typeface

• New default font: One UI 6 has a new default font with a more stylish and modern feel. You’ll see the new font if the default font is selected in Settings. If you’re using a different font, you’ll still see that font after upgrading to One UI 6.

Multitasking

• Keep pop-up windows open: Instead of minimizing pop-up windows when you go to the Recents screen, pop-ups will now remain open after you leave the Recents screen so you can continue what you were working on.

Samsung Keyboard

• New emoji design: Emojis that appear in your messages, social media posts, and elsewhere on your phone have been updated with a fresh new design.

Content sharing

• Picture and video previews: When you share pictures or videos from any app, preview images will appear at the top of the Share panel to give you one more chance to review the pictures and videos before sharing them.
• Extra sharing options: When you share content, additional options may appear on the Share panel depending on the app you share from. For example, when you share a website from the Chrome web browser, you’ll get the option to share a screenshot of the website along with the web address.

• More alignment options for watermarks: You can now choose whether your watermark appears at the top or bottom of your photos.
• Quick access to resolution settings: A resolution button is now available in the quick settings at the top of the screen in Photo and Pro modes so you can quickly change the resolution of photos you take.
• Easier video size options: A pop-up now appears when you tap the video size button, making it easier to see all the options and choose the right ones.
• Keep your pictures level: When grid lines are turned on in Camera settings, a level line will now appear in the middle of the screen while using the rear camera in all modes except Panorama. The line will move to show whether your picture is level with the ground.
• Apply effects more easily: Filter and face effects now use a dial instead of a slider, making it easier to make precise adjustments with just one hand.
• Scan documents easily: The Scan document feature has been separated from Scene optimizer, so you can scan documents even if Scene optimizer is turned off.

• Quality optimization: You can choose between 3 levels of quality optimization for the pictures you take. Choose Maximum to get the highest quality pictures with the most post-processing.

• Undo and redo: Don’t worry about making mistakes. You can now easily undo or redo transformations,
  filters, and tones.

My Files

• Learn more about accessibility: A link to the Samsung Accessibility web page has been added to Accessibility settings so you can learn more about accessibility features and our efforts to make our products accessible to everyone.

Will My Samsung Galaxy Get Android 14?

Samsung used to keep Galaxy phones and tablets updated with major Android software updates for three years. But again, the company has changed that policy to four years or more.

The company’s new Galaxy S24 models, the Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra, will all get seven years of software support.

This matches what Google’s providing to its Pixel 8 users. Unfortunately, this policy won’t extend to older devices.

Here are the Galaxy phones and tablets that are set to get at least four years of new Android/One UI releases and five years of security updates.

• Galaxy S Series: Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, Galaxy S22 Ultra, Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, Galaxy S21 Ultra, Galaxy S21 FE and upcoming S series devices.
• Galaxy Z Series: Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Z Fold 4, Galaxy Z Flip 5, Galaxy Z Flip 4, Galaxy Z Fold 3, Galaxy Z Flip 3 and upcoming Z series devices.
• Galaxy Tablets: Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9+, Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra, Galaxy Tab S8, Galaxy Tab S8+, Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra and upcoming Tab S series devices.

These devices will all move to Android 14 and One UI 6. Newer Galaxy A Series, Galaxy M Series, and XCover models will also move up to Android 14.

Here’s the list of devices that most likely won’t get upgraded to Android 14 and One UI 6:

• Galaxy S20
• Galaxy S20+
• Galaxy S20 Ultra
• Galaxy S20 FE
• Galaxy Note 10 Lite
• Galaxy Note 20
• Galaxy Note 20 Ultra
• Galaxy S10 Lite
• Galaxy Z Fold 2

• Galaxy A51
• Galaxy A32
• Galaxy A22
• Galaxy Tab A8
• Galaxy Tab A7 Lite
• Galaxy Tab S6 Lite
• Galaxy Tab S7
• Galaxy Tab S7+

This is subject to change, but if you own of of these devices, it will probably stay put (officially, at least) on Android 13 and One UI 5.
