Samsung could soon launch One UI 7 Beta and these three small tweaks could make a difference. As the Beta Program is away, I can’t help with feedback, but a leaker just shared key improvements that should be considered.
The upcoming version will indeed impress with its customization, elegant interface, and powerful features. The One UI 7 testing is currently underway and there’s room for tweaks and improvement in three key areas as per IceUniverse:
- Background blur effect in system animation
- Depth effect of lock screen wallpaper
- Frosted glass effect of screen lock notification
1. Background Blur in System Animations
You swipe between apps or open your notifications, and the background gently blurs out as you do it. It’s such a subtle thing that I’ve seen in other skins, and Samsung could do it better.
The addition of background blur would give the whole experience an extra layer of smoothness. It’s not a huge ask, and it wouldn’t even slow down the phone thanks to flagship hardware.
2. Depth Effect for Lock Screen Wallpaper
You may have seen the parallax effect where the wallpaper seems to shift as you tilt the phone. One UI 7 should add this simple change that would make the lock screen pop.
Leading software skins have had the depth effect for lock screen wallpaper. Samsung should consider adopting the depth effect to make the lock screen feel more dynamic and alive.
3. Frosted Glass Effect for Lock Screen Notifications
You may have noticed the notification blent in the background if a colorful wallpaper is used or the list of notifications is extended – here, the addition of the frosted glass effect would help.
This would give the lock screen a slightly more elegant feel without complicating things. Notifications would be easier to read, and it would add just a little more class to the design.
As a Samsung fan for over a decade, I’ve seen the One UI evolve from its first iteration in the Galaxy S9 series. From the very initial version to the latest One UI 6.1.1, Samsung has significantly polished the experience we enjoy today.
During the Beta activity, a feedback window will open for participants. We’ve seen Samsung developers hear consumer feedback and make changes if needed. Therefore, don’t skip sending your valuable feedback after joining the Beta.
