Download One UI 5.0 Android 13 Update For Samsung Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra | One UI Beta Program Begins

Following the Google IO 2022 developer conference event, wherein the firm released the first Android beta program to the public, many third-party smartphone makers stepped in and rolled out their own Android 13 skin. Select smartphones from Asus, OnePlus, OPPO, Realme, Sharp, TCL, Tecno, Vivo, Xiaomi, ZTE, and more can now participate in the Android 13 beta program from various OEMs.

However, Samsung is always late to the game. As their One UI firmware is quite feature-heavy and has tons of apps, it takes a lot of effort to migrate to a new operating system such as the latest Android 13-based One UI 5.0.

We assured you in our previous post that the One UI 5.0 beta program may go live on or before the upcoming Samsung Unpacked event set for August 10, 2022, at 9 a.m. ET. Many stock Samsung apps including the popular Good Lock plugins are being updated in support of Android 13.

Today, Samsung released the One UI 5.0 beta program for the flagships Galaxy S22, S22 Plus, and S22 Ultra.

Here, we will show you how to download and install the latest One UI 5.0 firmware update on your Galaxy S22 device.
