Samsung started rolling out One UI 6.1 to the company’s tablets in March with the Galaxy Tab S9 series. Now, almost one and a half months later, the South Korean tech giant is expanding the new UI to the Galaxy Tab S8 series. That’s right. Samsung has released One UI 6.1 for Galaxy Tab S8, Tab S8+, and Tab S8 Ultra.
Currently, Samsung is rolling out One UI 6.1 to the Galaxy Tab S8 series in Europe, and the company is pushing the update only to the Wi-Fi-only variants of the three tablets. The update carrying One UI 6.1 changes the firmware version of the Galaxy Tab S8, Tab S8+, and Tab S8 Ultra to X900XXU6CXE2, X800XXU6CXE2, and X700XXU6CXE2 respectively.
If you live in Europe but your Galaxy Tab S8 hasn’t notified you about the update, you can check for it manually by going to Settings » Software update » Download and install. If you don’t see an update, it means that the update hasn’t become available in your country or for your device yet and you’ll have to wait for a few more days for the update to arrive.
One UI 6.1 is based on Android 14 and it brings many new features, including Galaxy AI, which is a suite of AI-powered features that should come pretty handy to you in day-to-day usage, new image editing capabilities, and UI customization options. You can check out all the new features that One UI 6.1 offers in our video above.
