The Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra were the first Samsung phones to run One UI 6.1 out of the box. The newest version of One UI is expected to be released to existing devices in Q2 2024. Yesterday, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A55, but they aren't the first mid-rangers to run One UI 6.1 out of the box.
Galaxy F15 5G is cheapest Samsung phone to come with One UI 6.1 pre-installed
As you can see in the image below, the Galaxy F15 5G appears to be the first affordable Galaxy phone to run Android 14-based One UI 6.1 out of the box. The device was released in India a few days ago and is already available for purchase. It will get four major Android OS updates, similar to the Galaxy A35, Galaxy A55, Galaxy S23, and the Galaxy Z Flip 5/Fold 5.
It isn't clear if all the non-AI features debuted with One UI 6.1 on the Galaxy S24 series are available on the Galaxy F15 5G. However, it comes with the new Quick Share, search engine selection for Chrome (and default search engine), Secure Folder, Samsung Knox, Samsung Wallet, Smart Hotspot, and Voice Focus.
