With just weeks left until the release, Samsung is hard at work to prepare the update for a stable release. In line with this, we\u2019re now hearing information about the next One UI 8.5 beta.<\/p>\n<p>Tipster <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/tarunvats33\/status\/2013197147534147684?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Tarun Vats<\/a> has now shared the changelog for the fourth One UI 8 beta. Vats exclaims that the update hasn\u2019t arrived yet, though it\u2019s expected soon. Based on their previous suggestions, the update could arrive sometime this week, today through Friday, January 23.<\/p>\n<p>While the fourth beta largely focuses on bug fixes, Bixby is getting some attention with this build. While the changelog lacks the specifics, we suspect it might be associated with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-bixby-renew-perplexity-ai-3628037\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Bixby overhaul that has been speculated<\/a> for several weeks now. Samsung is reportedly planning to deploy Perplexity AI, enabling Bixby to respond to questions with greater dexterity. Last week, we also got <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-bixby-integration-with-perplexity-3631324\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">a leaked preview of what this Bixby upgrade could look like<\/a>, and we suspect it will expand to Samsung devices running One UI 8.5 globally.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_rm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572210_733_google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_jg\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/1766572211_278_google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As we said above, the remaining patches primarily address bugs introduced by the One UI 8.5 beta updates so far.
