A tipster, on X, shared an alleged One UI 7 screenshot. The image showcased icons and widget layout settings in the new operating system, including a redesigned battery indicator, as revealed in leaked screenshots. While other interface changes are also expected, the new battery indicator is the most prominent detail revealed so far.
The redesigned battery indicator looks like a pill-shaped icon with a percentage inside it. However, the design hints that it’s still in development, as it overlaps with other icons in the status bar. Meanwhile, the initial feedback on the redesigned pill-shaped battery icon appears negative, as many users want to look at a more squared-off design.
Samsung is expected to refine the battery icon’s shape during the beta testing phase. Apart from this, reports have already revealed that Samsung is about to open the One UI 7 beta program by the end of July or early August. The Galaxy S24series is first in line to join the One UI 7 beta program.
Samsung is one of the most appreciated brands in terms of innovation; now, with the latest development, the company has started a new era with the Galaxy AI features that arrived with One UI 6. 1. Now to bring more new change, it is expected to get an Apple for summarizing notifications.
