With the roll out of Another Samsung One UI 7 update, anyone who wants a fresh feel to their phone models, now can.
Icon Customization Milestones
Since it was formed, Android has been the most popular operating system for anyone. Applying themes, having the choice of various home screen launchers, sea of widgets, themed icons have always turned an Android cell into an innovative one. Apple fans might still feel a bit of jealousy over Android’s lock screen widgets, but let’s give credit where it’s due: In recent times, Apple has further ramped up this approach, introducing additional customisation capabilities in iOS.
However, the big revelation here is that Samsung, which already has its One UI, is planning to get a new look for the home screen.
The following is what to anticipate from One UI 7:
And, of course, leaks are offering the public something to focus on when it comes to One UI 7. Can you remember of the prior instances of thematic icons which were launched with the Android 12? It is like getting an awesome theme upgrade for the phones with the icons for the applications in harmony with the color of the background. For instance, Google introduces monochrome icons into the market, while now apparently, Samsung follows the same as well.
A Peek into the Future: New Icons
So, first of all, what exactly are these leak-telling us? Indeed, a leaker by the name chunvn8888 posted an image on the multimedia platform-X, which was formerly known as Twitter, depicting a new look of the icon of the Samsung Gallery. The minisite was not in its usual magenta color but a simple white square background with rounded corners.
But wait, there’s more! Another leaker, Ice universe, added his thoughts and claimed that this new icon design is still in development and could be changed before hitting the fifth beta of the application. However, the simple fact that these changes are being debated at all suggests there could well be larger design changes in the pipeline.
Deja Vu of ONE UI 5?
Well, to those of you who are going, “Wait, wasn’t this the white background icon thing we’ve seen several months ago?” your suspicion may not be off. Samsung played with this concept during the One UI 5 beta a few years ago, but the idea never mainstreamed to the production model. But, with One UI 7, it appears that the company is ready to offer one of the most extensive interface renewals in quite some time.
For instance, there are some discussions regarding the probable return of the vertical app drawer. In a way, it takes the concept to the level higher and feels like meeting an old friend who got a cool new hairstyle.
What to Expect Next
It may well be that some of these leaks are true but unfortunately we have to wait for about two months in order to receive the entire picture. The One UI 7 beta will be subjected to more iteration and assessment before the public stable update is released. It’s like waiting for a great meal for example, you have to be patient because good things do not happen instantly.
Conclusion
And that is all —a glimpse into the potential One UI 7 icons that Samsung might offer someday. For those who are into Android or are Samsung loyalists, then there will be a lot to look forward to. Perhaps the trend toward dynamic theming and towards fresher, cleaner, less cluttered icons is exactly what your home screen needs.
