Does 8.5 beta automatically follow my Samsung account on new phone

[pinn1]

I have the s25 ultra and I bought the s26 ultra will i have to rejoin the beta program? Or will it just automatically join on the new phone?

S26 series isn't on a Beta and already has One UI 8.5.

Betas versions will not carry over to new phones or future beta tests. You have to join each again.

There is no beta for the s26 series because the s26 series is already running oneUI 8.5 .

But normally, if you change your phone you lose the beta and you need to re-join

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback.

If you transfer your data from S25 to S26 using Smart Switch, you would have the option to transfer your Samsung Account during the setup. 

However, Beta enrollment won't carry over to your S26, as the beta is ongoing for S25 and not for S26. 

In fact, S26 is currently on One UI 8.5 on official software. 

We appreciate your contribution to beta program.

Regards,

One UI Beta Team
