Hi everyone, I'm new here but I've owned the Z series since the Z Fold 4 and I now have the Z Fold 7 and was wondering if anyone might possibly know how to join the one UI 8.5 beta update when it becomes available? And does anyone maybe know when the 8.5 will be rolling out?
@SheroFex As @GaryB82 said, currently there is no beta for the Fold 7. You can always check to see if you have a beta available by opening the Samsung Members app, clicking Discover, scroll down to find the Beta banner. Click on the banner. It will tell you if a beta is available to you or not.
At the moment, there is no information about whether they will roll out a beta to the Fold 7. If they do, it will most likely be only for T-Mobile and Factory Unlocked devices, if they even push a beta to foldables.

To join the One UI 8.5 beta on your Z Fold 7, use the Samsung Members app to sign up when the program opens. Currently, the beta is only for the S25 series, so the Fold 7 beta will likely be available late February–March 2026. Check Samsung Members for updates.
