Samsung Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A56 could receive One UI 9 beta before stable build
Samsung is working on Android 17-based One UI 9 for several Galaxy devices, even though it has released the One UI 9 beta only for the Galaxy S26 series. While Samsung hasn't revealed when it will expand the One UI 9 beta program to more devices, the Korean brand could release One UI 9 beta for the Galaxy A35 and Galaxy A56 before rolling out the stable update.

The reason is that the One UI 9 beta build with firmware A356NKSUAZZH5 for the Galaxy A35 and the One UI 9 beta build with firmware A566SKSU9ZZHH for the Galaxy A56 have been spotted on Samsung's test servers in Korea. Samsung has also created a One UI 9 beta forum for the Galaxy A56 on Samsung Community in India.

The Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26+, and Galaxy S26 Ultra have received seven One UI 9 beta updates so far and could receive stable One UI 9 in the coming weeks. After that, we could see Samsung open the One UI 9 beta program for the Galaxy S25 series and other eligible smartphones.

Crazy how my A54 may get it before th S26 series, Samsung cannot be serious about not giving it to their current flagships

Genuine question, do real people actually test Samsung's new OneUI betas on their midrange smartphone, daily driver or having it as a secondary device? Motorola seem to does it too. I mean, I only see Android betas being tested on flagship stuff...
