Leaks Point to Priority Notifications and AI Summaries in Samsung’s One UI 8.5

The features remain unconfirmed in internal testing ahead of a likely One UI 8.5 beta.

Overview

  • An internal One UI 8.5 build reportedly adds AI-powered notification summaries that show short previews for conversational messages in English and Korean with per‑app controls.
  • A separate leaked toggle labeled “Prioritize notification” would let users mark specific app alerts as high priority so those notifications appear at the top.
  • Screenshots circulated by leakers show Galaxy AI branding and claim on‑device processing for notification content, though Samsung has not verified these details.
  • Reports suggest public testing could begin soon, with the stable Android 16–based One UI 8.5 expected to debut alongside the Galaxy S26 early next year.
  • Leak sources also point to visual tweaks such as a reduced 3D look for icons, with references to internal build number YJH under evaluation on Galaxy S25 hardware.
