It LOOKS and FEELS like a different phone, I’m in love like when I first got my s23u.

  • slide down quick access is so much more easier to use (especially with my huge s23u)
  • music display on lockscreen looks amazing
  • emojis look so much better!

Still discovering the other new updated aspects but WOW!

Seriously, these design choices are small, but they that make so much sense and update the phone to 2023

    I’m still waiting for it to be released on my Mint Mobile new Fold5 in Kansas. (Hey, but at least Taylor Swift is here in my county at the home of her BF, Travis Kelce for the next month. So no complaining. Just “Shake It OFF”, y’all! Y’all are quite adept, I am not. Appreciate all you share. I still cant get the phone to recognize my fingerprints. Count your blessings, Reddit experts.

    No, it does not feel and look like a different phone. As you yourself mentioned, the changes are small. The update is nice but there is no need to tout it as best thing since sliced bread.

    Ive tried oneui 6 for the past 24 hours. Not bad. But my deal breaker is a vertical app tray.

    Just going to go back to Nexus Launcher, and hope for a future update to make one ui worth it for me.

    My biggest complaint is the lack of system color. The blue basic color is bland especially on the volume slider and quick toggles.

    Hey, S23FE user here. Updated just yesterday. So far so good. I like the touches here and there. I actually love the new playbar animation a lot, no specific reason. Also I didn’t like the task changer has only 2 options now. I used to use stack but it’s not available atm. I guess they will be adding it back in a few weeks. Also what really matters is the battery life, if it goes lower it’s a deal breaker. Will see it today.

    I’m still getting used to the new slide-down menu layout. Not the biggest fan since I’ve been used to it since 2020 when I got my S10+, but whatever. I’ll adjust. Not a deal breaker for me.

    I think what’s more annoying is that scanning QR codes seems to take a bit longer now and have to keep the camera much more still. There’s no immediate feedback if it did scan other than the tiniest pop-up (used to vibrate stronger when it did scan and the link was easier to click). Under the old OneUI, it was almost too good at scanning QR codes as it would pick up the tiniest and blurry QR code even if I didn’t intend on scanning it, but this seemed like an overcorrection. But again, something I’ll just have to adjust to.

    So far I like it.

    Animations have been worked on for the better. Stutters are happening less but it’s only been a day since I got it so no idea if it stays the same in the long run.

    Wish they added the S20+, just got my phone about a year ago as a refurb from AT&T and it’s not on the list.

    Maye they will add this 3 year old model for Android 14 and UI 6.

    I agree. It is a big step up from 5.0 and whoever says otherwise I really don’t know what is wrong with them.

    First thing I noticed is that this new quick access drawer will very often try to scroll when you swipe up to close it. Does it happen to anyone else?
