Android 11: Samsung startet Public Beta für One UI 3.0

Samsung schickt die Public Beta von One UI 3.0 ins Rennen, nachdem man das Update in den letzten Tagen bereits mit den Entwicklern getestet hat. Allerdings sei direkt erwähnt, dass die öffentliche Beta noch nicht in Deutschland verfügbar ist.

Den Anfang macht das Heimatland von Samsung (Südkorea), aber ich gehe davon aus, dass die Beta auch sehr bald bei uns verfügbar sein wird. Zum Start wird nur die Galaxy S20-Reihe von Samsung unterstützt, das FE-Modell aber noch nicht.

Samsung: Android 11 wohl noch 2020

Samsung dürfte Android 11 mit One UI 3.0 vermutlich noch 2020 für die ersten Modelle verteilen, wir rechnen im November oder Dezember damit. Man hat aber noch keinen Termin kommuniziert (es dürfte bald wieder eine Roadmap geben, bei der Samsung die Monate nennt, in denen man mit dem Update rechnen kann).

Den Changelog für One UI 3.0 gab es schon vor ein paar Tagen, ich habe ihn euch aber einfach nochmal weiter unten eingebunden. Wir werden euch informieren, wenn die öffentliche Beta für das Update auf Android 11 bei uns ankommt.
