TL;DR Samsung’s most affordable 5G phone, Galaxy A07 5G, is getting One UI 8.5.
The update has reached most flagships and current-gen A-series phones, with only a handful of low-end models left.
Galaxy Tab A11 is also getting the update, but it’s limited to Korea.
Samsung’s One UI 8.5 began rolling out to older devices at the beginning of May 2026 and has since trickled down to dozens of models. As Samsung shifts its focus to developing One UI 9, based on Android 17, with a beta for the Galaxy S26 series, the One UI 8.5 rollout is slowly encompassing all eligible devices, including the lowest-end models.
In line with this, Samsung is now bringing the update to the Galaxy A07 5G, the most affordable 5G Galaxy phone launched earlier this year. SammyGuru reports that stable One UI 8.5 is now available for the Galaxy A07 5G in multiple regions, including Malaysia, the Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam, and more regions should follow soon.
This is the first major update for the Galaxy A07 5G, which launched with One UI 8 based on Android 16. In addition to these, Samsung has also promised six generational upgrades, which should exclude One UI 8.5 since it’s also based on Android 16.
