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.

I HATE THIS UPDATE. its ugly, its frustrating to use, theres absolutely no way to change it back. I feel like a hostage to samsung and jesus christ i have never felt so angry about a phone update in my life. what do we need to do to get it changed back SAMSUNG??????!!!!!!!!!!! updates need to be OPTIONAL NOT REQUIRED!!!! I dont even want any of the new functions THATS WHY I DIDNT BUY AN IPHONE!! I might as well switch to Iphone anyways if samsung is just going to copy every single thing that they do. I am OVER IT.

I feel the pain... i work with alot of iphones and they are so ancient and ugly and outdated its hilarious the majority of Americans use them... however i have been appreciating the beauty of the pixel phone and Motorola's foldable Razer which is the coolest phone since the galaxy s8-s10... tho one plus and the razer gaming phones look pretty cool too ... but yea since the galaxy phones lost the little light and recently no edgeless display and only 1080p on all phones except the ultra and playing it safe with designs the last few years since the s20 i feel after 12 years of being on samsung that my next phone will be different unless they care about phones again....since they have been a global conglomerate they have gotten lazy with innovation the past 5 years atleast...., the profit is there why innovative anymore....same with their tvs.... they used to be the best but now are only just midrange...

Dito on One UI 6! I hate it, too. And I've been a phone user since Nokia 5110, I've always appreciated innovation and something new and Better! I've just updated my A34 and I simply hate the way it looks and the way it works.

I've just bought three Samsung phones as Christmas presents for my family but I'm pretty sure I'll return them all and choose something else. Samsung simply isn't what they used to be (I loved my S7 and I still own it), but I believe it's now time to say goodbye to a brand that doesn't seem to listen to their users but to their own preferences alone!

Agreed the update is **bleep** looks like a toddler designed it. I'm an adult and expect better than what looks like it belongs in a child's hands.

Agreed, fix bugs don't totally redesign something that wasn't broken. The font choice is the worse thing ever it makes me swint and **bleep** is up with all UI removing color and going with grays. I hate looking at this šŸ’© Also why do you push this to older phones, my S21 was perfectly fine.

I never registered with the Beta program, so how do I delete it?  How do I roll back to the previous update? The five point something. The 1UI 6.0 sucks big time.

AOD clock font was really piece of art, well thought through and beautifully crafted, and now it looks like my grandma's default Word document font... and it's bold, probably because of her eyesight. I know it can be made a bit less bold but my god is it ugly ;( And it consumes more battery because more constantly lit pixels mean more power consumption. I would agree it's marginal and would gladly sacrifice a bit of battery for a beautiful decoration on my table, but this is an insult.

Three dots for app names in app drawer and those ugly large icons at all grid sizes would push to its limits my eloquence in an attempt to describe my disgust. I will not even try.

And new default font? Ok, pay the team who decided to go with it, and I guess that is something you can get used to, but please give us an option to use the old one.

And I know some things can be slightly remedied with GoodLock but it absolutely cannot be fixed.

ā€œLetā€™s make it look more like vanilla Google experienceā€. Bit*h please, if I wanted Google experience, I would have bought Pixel. I WANT SAMSUNG EXPERIENCE!!

I really hope devs going to see the feedbacks and make better changes. I just did the update and even though it says it goes faster the whole system is lagging. And I really don't like the new emojis, please give us the old emojis back.

This update is awful - I find the new muted grey icons on the pulldown menu difficult to read and it looks so old fashioned.  My icons used to be a blue colour and easy to read and to pickout for use - why oh why has this awful grey colour been used.  There's no option to change these icons back to the previous colour for easier reading.  The new lockscreen clock is awful to look at too .  Why have these awful changes been made without an option for the user to change themselves to what is better for their own use?
