Samsung is fervently looking forward to providing a more incredible UI to its Galaxy audience in the form of the next Android 15-based One UI 7.0 version, which currently appears to be undergoing its development phase.
Considering that users have already witnessed a lot of devices running the One UI 7.0 build on the Geekbench database up until now, Samsung still doesn’t seem to be releasing the One UI 7.0 beta channel for its flagship Galaxy S24 series.
Meanwhile, the testing of the latest Android 15 along with One UI 7.0 expands to more Galaxy A-series models, and this time, the Samsung Galaxy A73 has been sighted running Android 15 with One UI 7 on the Geekbench servers.

However, these aforementioned scores cannot suggest the exact performance of the Galaxy A73 models. In contrast, Samsung has been reportedly testing One UI 7 on several mid-tier Galaxy A-series devices at the moment, but the brand doesn’t seem to imminently release the beta build for its flagship Galaxy S24 lineup.
