MEGA THREAD: One UI 6 General Feedback

[Mr_Khan]

Awful update of one UI 6. Recently upgraded my s22 ultra to one UI 6 and I really wanna go back. Last time I wrote about the issues in the gallery app, video player in gallery app, and notification panel. After discovering more things about new update is that now I can't play my audio in 2 different Bluetooth speakers at once using media control. I also can't switch back and forth the audio from Bluetooth speaker to my phone speaker and to achieve this I either need to disconnect the speaker or turn off the Bluetooth. This is getting absurd, day by day. These are all my daily activities in life and samsung have completely messed things around and there is no going back. Very poor update from samsung especially at the time of Christmas and season of music. The developers of this  upgrade have arbitrarily made changes without thinking about the users.

100% agree with you, but the carriers all add their dumb apps to the devices and I guess they don't want to give that up. I would think that Samsung has the bargaining power to make it happen since they and Apple are by far the 2 most popular devices in the U.S.
I don't know why they haven't tried to force the carriers to do this

I don't believe for a minute that it's the carriers. I have 2 s23ultra phones. I got the update with no sim card installed. The phone has no carrier. It can't make phone calls. I just use it on my wifi network for gaming and movies etc. I still get the update. AT&T phones could not even make calls. Do you really think AT&T would do that. It's not the carrier. ITS SAMSUNG!!!! I love my s23ultras , but I want to see better updates and improvements. NOT DOWNGRADES. As far as what samsung would gain? They gain by selling new phones. If you see all the video on YouTube about the new s24ultra. You will see there is major hype about them. They will sell millions of them. I hope ui6.1 will be great, but the news of samsung putting new A.I. features behind a pay wall really shows me its all about the money . Not customer loyalty.

And the most important fact is Android belongs to Google they can do what they want with it. The only cell phone I know that has zero bloatware it doesn't even have the carrier logo on boot up

[Ryan891]

iPhones don't have a carrier logo either

[Dogpool]

It does have some carrier bloatware but it can be uninstalled. For example my pixel 7 pro had some Verizon apps pre installed. But they were easily uninstalled.

Agree direct updates from samsung would be great

I just want to know who decided it was a good idea to change the emoji style? Because it looks disgusting. I prided Samsung (The Galaxy series specifically) on giving us normal looking emojis, but they just decided to throw that all out the window. They now look like something comical and off brand on a computer, laptop, or one of those off brand phones (not that anything are wrong are these phones of anyone has one). 

Long story short, these emojis are ugly and they need to change them back. Makes me not even want to use them at all just so I don't have to look at them 

[userprXqdpfTqG]

And for anyone else, I just meant to not use the emojis anymore, not the phone lol (being that it's really not a serious issue for that other miserable person to complain about). This is just coming from a person who has 2 phones (a galaxy and iPhone) and an iPad and expresses themselves a lot through the use of emojis. Also also, I didn't think it was a crime to make a complaint about what *I* have to see on *MY* cellphone

[twonder]

Not a crime, these emojis are so ridiculous looking since i updated my phone

[JustAnji]

The new emojis are terrible!!! I hate them!! Anyway we can get the old ones back?
