Samsung is expected to push out the first One UI 6 Beta during the third week of this month for the Galaxy S23 line. Yes, we are now in July if for some reason this has slipped past you. And included with the first One UI 6 Beta will be the first Android 14 Beta for Sammy’s current flagship smartphone series. Those brave enough to install the first One UI 6 Beta when it arrives will get their first taste of Android 14. However, there is a caveat. Since this will be an early Beta release of Android 14, it will be unstable and not fit for your daily driver.
The Galaxy S23 Ultra is benchmarked with an Android 14 Beta installed
That score compares with a recent Geekbench test of the same phone running Android 13 of 1871 and 4942 for the single-core and multi-core results respectively. The device tested is model SM-S918U which is a Galaxy S23 Ultra carrier-locked to AT&T.
The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra can be yours now!
While the results really don’t tell us anything, the existence of this benchmark test is newsworthy. It means that Samsung is indeed internally testing the One UI 6 Beta and the Android 14 Beta for the Galaxy S23 series. Traditionally, the current flagship models receive the One UI/Android Beta releases before other Galaxy handsets with the previous year’s flagship series-in this case the Galaxy S22 line-next in the queue to receive it.
