One UI 6 (Beta) impression after 10 days of usage on Galaxy S23 Ultra

[AlexCasamar]

I don't know if this is just me or not, but after 10 days of playing around with One UI 6 (Beta) on my Galaxy S23 Ultra, I can confidently confirm that the biggest issues I've encountered 90% of the time was the os animation smoothness/transitioning of all apps whenever I'm opening or closing them. This also applies to the navigation gesture on the bottom of the device that's supposed to let you seamlessly swipe across different apps. Transitioning across different apps via the bottom navigation gesture feels choppy and laggy. The whole experience in general feels choppy and laggy. I also noticed that the border of the weather widget on the main home screen has these strange black bars going all around it when swiping back and forth with the clock widget. Constant crashing/freezing of apps is another issue that I faced. Ever since I've updated my phone to One UI 6 (Beta), these issues have become more apparent after 10 days of heavy usage and testing. The device also feels a bit hotter to the touch than normal after it was updated to the One UI 6 (Beta) software. I will continue to update the Samsung community on other issues/findings that I feel are worthy of mentioning.

Do you get the black bar when you only use the weather widget?
That might be due to having a folder setup and not a single widget. Based on the pictures, seems to be the background of the folder.

Yes, I only see the black bars on the weather widget, but not on the clock widget. It's a widget folder on the main home screen that features the weather and clock app. However, what's not normal here is the fact that the black bars don't go away at all, even after my fingers have let go of the widget itself on the screen. The black bars simply appear to stay frozen in place, which is not normal. This didn't happen before I updated my Galaxy S23 Ultra with the lastest One UI 6 (Beta) software. I think this is perhaps some sort of glitch that the developers didn't quite patch up when releasing the beta software. In the grand scheme of things, this is a minor issue compared to the other bigger issues with the os animation smoothness/transitions and app crashes that I'm also experiencing. Hopefully, these things will be patched up and fixed when the official software is available.

Look how  the tiny little letters are in the app names. Who's idea was that? I think the developers are trolling us. 😂
