Come on Samsung, you have blur in some places, so why not in others? I know this has been reported tons of times already, but after 5 betas (including Z Fold/Flip6 betas) and 2 hotfixes, we STILL don't have blur in some places.
Areas that could benefit from blur:
1. Lockscreen notifications
2. Pop up alerts (Connected devices, Quick Share etc.)
3. Menus and buttons in some apps (like Notes, which is still missing blur)
4. The status bar and gesture bar (for edge to edge apps)
5. Screenshot toolbar
6. Etc., I'm sure there are others that I can't think of right now
When making design choices, Samsung needs to either commit fully or not at all. The half-in, half-out implementation makes One UI feel disjointed and unfinished.
Visual consistency needs to be a priority for Samsung. Some of their competitors are getting REALLY good at UI design, animations, etc.
It's not a hardware game anymore. Even budget phones have decent hardware now. It's all about software experience, and attention to detail needs to be at least as good as the competition if Sammy is going to stay on top.
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We understand the importance of visual consistency and agree that UI elements like blur effects, animations, and design choices play a significant role in creating a polished user experience.
Your points about lock screen notifications, pop-up alerts, status bar, gesture bar, and system menus are well noted. Having a unified blur implementation across One UI would help maintain aesthetic cohesion, and we recognize that a half-applied approach can feel unfinished.
As One UI continues to evolve, refinements to design consistency, animations, and overall user experience remain a focus. Weāll ensure your feedback is shared with the relevant teams as Samsung works on refining One UIās interface.
We truly appreciate your passion for UI design and your dedication to improving the One UI experience. Your insights help shape the future of Samsung software, and we encourage you to continue sharing your thoughts.
