This kind of update ensures that your phone, your tablet, and other devices become more secure as updates come along.

EXCLUSIVE: One UI 8.5 Beta forums for the Galaxy S24 FE + S25 FE spotted!

In an unexpected move, while Samsung is testing One UI 8.5 beta builds for the S24 and for the Galaxy Z Fold/Flip6 series, they have also considered testing the beta builds for the S24 FE and the S25 FE.

The below builds have been spotted according to Tarun Vats as mentioned in the above linked article:

• S25 FE: S731NKSU5ZZCB
• S24 FE: S721NKSUAZZCB

While those builds have been spotted, we have conducted further investigation, and we have spotted the One UI 8.5 beta forums for both the Galaxy S24 FE and the Galaxy S25 FE devices, at least in the USA forums!

This means that we are one step closer to Samsung opening the beta program for the Galaxy S25 FE and for the S24 FE devices.

Once the beta program actually opens, we’ll let you know.

In today’s Galaxy Event September 2025, Samsung has unveiled the Galaxy S25 FE, the newest addition to the Galaxy S25 family that first came on January. After the Galaxy S25 Edge, this Fan Edition phone is the latest FE phone that came after the last year’s Galaxy S24 FE.

For thermal management, the vapor chamber in the Galaxy S25 FE has become larger by 10% to reduce heat and throttle. This allows you to perform heavy tasks and AI processing tasks more smoothly than never before. This also allows you to play games for longer without worrying about heat.

Galaxy S25 FE’s display is a 6.7″ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display panel with a 120Hz refresh rate that makes transitions and animations more smooth, while maintaining smoothness in the display. Along with high-resolution display, this characteristic makes your photos and other UI elements look more attractive.

To make the device look more awesome, the enhanced Armor Aluminum frame provides the more refined finish, while increasing the durability. Galaxy S25 FE comes with four colors, which are Icyblue, Jetblack, Navy, and White.
