Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 receives One UI 6 Watch Beta 8 update

It’s been over two months since the launch of the Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra, both of which came pre-installed with One UI 6 Watch software. However, older Galaxy watches still haven’t received the stable One UI 6 Watch update. Now Samsung has released another beta version of the One UI 6 Watch update for the Galaxy Watch 6.

The Galaxy Watch 6 series is receiving One UI 6 Watch Beta 8 update in South Korea and the US

Samsung has released the eighth beta version of the One UI 6 Watch update for the Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic. The update is currently available in South Korea and the US, but could soon be released in other countries where the beta program has started. The update comes with the end of the firmware version ZXJ3 and has a download size of approximately 156 MB.

According to the official changelog provided with the update, Samsung has further improved the stability and performance of the system. The company has also reduced power consumption, which directly improves battery life. The update also improves network operability and other issues reported with the previous beta version of the software.

The update also brings the October 2024 security patch to both smartwatches.

If you have a Galaxy Watch 6 series device enrolled in the One UI 6 Watch Beta program, you can check for the new update by opening the Galaxy wearable App on your smartphone and navigate to Clock settings » View software update » Download and install.

Hopefully this is the final beta version of One UI 6 Watch. If this is the case, we should release the stable version of the software to compatible Galaxy Watches before the end of this month.
