What's everyone's opinions on the new One UI for the S25? Just got my phone yesterday. 

[LongHiker]

I'm really liking the new UI 7. I didn't get a chance to try the beta, but I think it is working great in the S25 Ultra.

Not sure how I feel about the Now Breifs and Now Bar on the AOD & Lock Screen, definitely miss the AOD clock faces. Hopefully we will get them back. Wallpaper is kinda bland, but it's very smooth an noticeable upgrade over the S22 Ultra I had. I haven't really used much of the AI stuff yet.

Hace 3 dias que recibi mi nuevo Samsung Galaxy s25 despues de usar 5 años iPhone

I'm very disappointed with Samsung this year it seems they've full-on embraced the Apple approach while also downgrading their devices at a higher price cheap camera lens lack of Bluetooth S Pen support why and now you're designing everything like it's a crappy Apple product I refuse to update my Galaxy buds because of their copy and paste design choices I don't know it could just be me but I won't be buying a Samsung product this year sadly

Was really hoping to see Qi2 with magnets built in and sad to see Samsung removed Bluetooth from the S-pen. Those 2 things kept me from upgrading yet again. I'm still using the Galaxy S23 Ultra and am very happy with it. Maybe next year. All manufacturers make incremental improvements every year, but I believe with Samsung's internal problems and their chip manufacturing lagging behind, has kept them from giving us what we really want in a phone.

Shed Some Light...

Can someone explain (and/or provide some reasoning)...?

I've been on the fence about pre-ordering the S25 Ultra. Even going as far as getting to the payment page, but not pulling the trigger to pre-order. My choice was Jade Green, and never an issue.

So last night, I went to actually place the order and guess what...? The green was suddenly unavailable and out-of-stock!! Now, the big question here is, how can something that hasn't even been made yet be out-of-stock?

I initiated chat with an "Expert", and after an hour, I got nowhere trying to get the question answered. They simply kept saying, "I suggest you order another color." They were also not able to apply offer discounts (military), reserve credits, or first-time ordering through the Shop App bonus. What a waste of time.

In the end, I went offline and ordered the Jet Black 512k. I should have just pulled the plug on my Samsung Ecosystem and gone with another manufacturer, which is still an open option.

Prior experience with this community forum suggests Samsung doesn't like criticism, and they pull such posts. We'll see if this survives...

Stay tuned...
