One UI 5.0
Modern features needed in Samsung One UI 5.0
Samsung didn’t bring a major user interface overhaul with the Android 12-based One UI 4 iteration, therefore, consumers are eyeing the One UI 5.0, based on Android 13. While Google is still developing its upcoming mobile platform, Samsung is likely to offer the first Beta by the end of next month.
The South Korean tech giant introduced various new features with the One UI 4.1 that is inspired by Google’s Android 12 operating system such as Dynamic Theming. Meanwhile, we don’t know anything about the One UI 5.0 features that Samsung will bring with Android 13, but, we can imagine, at least.

Color Palette – Your Galaxy Your Way
Your Galaxy Your Ways is the tagline of Samsung’s One UI software which mean to provide users the ability to customize their device as per their own needs and creativity. Meanwhile, OPPO swiftly beats Samsung when it comes to the most engaging Material You Color Picker.
Samsung One UI 4 brings five different color palettes that are being created by the wallpaper of the homescreen. Meanwhile, the ColorOS 12 also brings the ability to pick custom colors in addition to the Android 12’s self-generated color palettes.
Similar to the color picker tool of Photoshop, you can drag the four dots over the background to individually pick colors as well as you can also set your own color through the color wheel. If a Chinese vendor can do it even on Android 12, why we don’t wish for it with the One UI 5.0.
App Drawer with vertical scrolling
For many years, Samsung consumers demanded to bring the vertical scrolling feature for the App Drawer offered by the One UI Home. The stock App Drawer has no option to turn the scrolling functionality from Horizontal (paginated) to Vertical.
In case a Vertical scrolling app drawer is a must, you can force it using the Good Lock’s Home Up module, however, there’s a catch that the Good Lock is not available for all Galaxy devices and in all regions globally. As the Vertically scrolling app drawer is useful for most and makes the phone handy, we expect its arrival with One UI 5.0.
Customizable Dark Mode
Chinese OEMs are one step ahead of Samsung in providing software features on the Android 12 operating system. The Android 12-based ColorOS 12, OxygenOS 12, and Realme UI 3.0 have a customizable Dark Mode feature that allows users to choose the intensity.
The above-mentioned Android skins bring three settings for dark mode customization including Enhanced, Medium, and Gentle. When selected, the Enhanced settings apply fully dark mode, while the Medium changes the UI to dark grey and the Gentle applies a light grey hue, similar to Eye Comfort Shield.
System-wide themed app icons
Android 12 was a big deal, while Android 13 has nothing to amaze consumers, in terms of new features. However, Google is impressively making the Android 12’s new features even more useful with the new OS. Reports revealed that Google is asking developers to use monochromatic app icons when they submit app updates.
With this, third-party apps will also be themed the same as Google and UI’s stock apps taking advantage of the Material You theming engine. In Android 12, Dynamic Theming only applies to Google and Samsung apps, however, it would change in near future with the One UI 5.
Improved animation speeds
With each generation of One UI, Samsung brings improvements to the animation speeds, accordingly, we don’t need to worry about it as the company will surely enhance the animations in the next One UI 5 version. The same was reported earlier that the devs are working to improve the animation speeds.
Samsung has a lot of smartphones with 90Hz and 120Hz displays, hence, the experience will be boosted impressively following the software optimization and animation speed improvements. At the same time, budget phones that lack refresh rate customization will also gain smoother scrolling ability.
One UI 5 coming later this year
It’s true, that Samsung will launch the Android 13-based One UI 5 software skin later this year, followed by its improved variant One UI 5.1 in early next year. Meanwhile, you’ll be able to test the upcoming skin through One UI Beta program in select regions.
This year, Samsung will deliver the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 Beta/Stable update, first, to the Galaxy S22 series devices. Later on, the company will expand this new OS to more eligible Galaxy devices including the Galaxy S21, Z Fold 3, Z Flip 3, S20, and Note 20.

Lighting is one of the important factors in photography. With the new update, the company would like to introduce the Editors’ Tint Menu so that you can fine-tune the effect of these lights.
Samsung offers three different functions for adjusting the lighting, which look similar but are different. Those three functions are Light Balance, Definition, and Clearness. Let’s see these three functions of Samsung One UI 5.1 Photo Editor.
Improved Light Balance
Light Balance literally means the balance of light. This function adjusts the balance of brightness to the mid-tones in the image. This feature ensures visibility and balances brightness by making very dark areas slightly brighter and very bright areas slightly darker.
When we increase the (+) value, the light balance effect is adjusted to make the overall image brighter and more clear, while we increase the (-) value, the overall image becomes darker such as casting a shadow.
The Light Balance function is currently only available for photo editing and will be soon supported by Video Editor.
Sharpness Improvement
Sharpness is a feature that edits blurry photos to make them sharper. Although it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with light, it does involve the power of light.
Brighten the brightest point of the photo that bringing out the texture, which has the effect of sharpening the photo. The sharpness enhancement applies to photo editing and video editing alike.
New Clarity Feature
Clarity is a new feature of the latest One UI 5.1 update. Alike the Sharpness function, the Clarity function applies the effect of lighting rather than changing it. This function makes bright areas of an image slightly brighter and dark areas slightly darker to enhance the texture or three-dimensional effect of the image. In One UI 5.1, Clarity is only available for photo editing, but the company is planning to release this feature to the Video Editor.
