It\u2019s a big update for Galaxy phones, and S25 series users can now try out standout features like an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-one-ui-8-5-lock-screen-adaptive-layout-3623138\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">adaptive lock screen clock<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-one-ui-8-5-storage-share-3623129\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Storage Share<\/a>, though they\u2019ll have to wait a bit for the elusive <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-one-ui-8-5-missing-bixby-upgrades-3623126\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bixby x Perplexity upgrade<\/a>. Another significant change introduced by this update is the better customization options for the Quick Settings panel, which may help you achieve the perfect setup for your needs, although Samsung may have looked at Apple for some inspiration.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_Pm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_Zg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Zg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>In One UI 7 and One UI 8, users can reorder items like the volume and brightness sliders, and add and remove toggles in the panel below Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. These were decent customizations, but that\u2019s all that could be changed.<\/p>\n<p>With One UI 8.5, Samsung is allowing users to separate the brightness and volume sliders into independent sliders (instead of a combined slider). Additionally, they can be individually resized and even converted into vertical sliders, rather than the default horizontal orientation, similar to the vertical orientation available on iOS\u2019 Control Center.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Zg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"One UI 8 quick settings\"  alt=\"One UI 8 quick settings\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/One-UI-8-quick-settings-1-scaled.jpg\"\/>One UI 8<img class=\"e_Zg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"One UI 8.5 Quick Settings panel customizations (2)\"  alt=\"One UI 8.5 Quick Settings panel customizations (2)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/One-UI-8.5-Quick-Settings-panel-customizations-2-scaled.jpg\"\/>One UI 8.5<img class=\"e_Zg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"One UI 8.5 Quick Settings panel customizations (1)\"  alt=\"One UI 8.5 Quick Settings panel customizations (1)\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/One-UI-8.5-Quick-Settings-panel-customizations-1-scaled.jpg\"\/>One UI 8.5<\/p>\n<p>One UI 8.5 also allows toggles to be added outside of the collapsible Quick Settings panels. When you go to add a new toggle widget, you will now see categories, much like iOS\u2019 Control Center.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Zg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"iPhone 16 Pro Control Center\"  alt=\"iPhone 16 Pro Control Center\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/iPhone-16-Pro-Control-Center.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Ryan Haines \/ Android Authority<\/p>\n<p>One can argue whether or not iOS is the inspiration for these changes, but having the option for more customization is great for Galaxy users.
